GLOBALSCAPES

The Annual PSID Interior Design Exhibit


Travel around the world in twenty two impeccably-designed booths representing design influences and nuances from twenty two countries.





The graduating class of the Philippine School of Interior Design presents their annual thesis/exhibit consisting of booths that reflect the inherent design of a particular country which they have selected to portray.

Rich in detail, texture, color, mood, the booths transport you into the rawness and wilderness of African and Kenya, the sublime intricacy of patterns from India, the old-world comfort of an Italian villa, the comfortable and laid-back charm of America, and the relaxed openness of the Australian outback.
