Working in a home magazine, I’m used to attending events furniture launches and groundbreaking ceremonies. So it was quite a (delightful) shock for me to attend the opening of SMDC’s (SM Development Corp’s) grand showroom last week. We braved long gowns, high heels, gate crashers, and a million uzis just to see their celebrity endorser Anne Curtis get serenaded by Christian Bautista as she descended the showroom staircase (sorry blurry pic I was being jostled about)…
Now I’m not a big fan of Anne Curtis as an actress, but I must admit, in person she did have that otherwordly “star aura”.
And now let’s talk about the showroom itself. Breaking free from the cramped, piggy-backed-to-a-building showroom space, this is a standalone modern building with a huge reception area and all the different showrooms upstairs. Here’s the model unit of their 16sqm (!) condo…
…A little bit tight. The 20sqm unit seems cozier…
…but I prefer the one-bedroom unit instead. Visit the SMDC Showroom at the Mall of Asia Complex at Pasay City.
