The event welcomed 300 distinguished guests from the design, property, business and academic sectors.
The elegant three-story destination brings together several offerings: a furniture retail space showcasing the company’s expanded portfolio of 25 leading international brands, which it has represented and distributed for the past 35 years, including Herman Miller, MillerKnoll, Vitra, Walter Knoll, Gufram, Magis, Artek and HAY; Arthaland’s Sondris showroom, featuring CWC’s furniture and wood and steel manufacturing capabilities and adding a residential dimension to the building; an exquisite coffee shop; and a future events space.
The memorable celebration began with a blessing officiated by Fr. Rikki Miranda, SVD, followed by a program featuring talks by Kartik Shethia, MillerKnoll managing director for Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa; architect Ed Calma, designer of the CWC Design Center at 814 Arnaiz Avenue; Oliver Chan, Arthaland senior vice president and chief sustainability officer; and special guest Eames Demetrios, director of Eames Office, who flew in especially for the occasion.
Guests enjoyed delightful culinary creations by renowned chef Jessie Sincioco, while upbeat music from talented DJs and free-flowing drinks from Aposento Bar kept the celebration lively.
The lovely Shy Tan, together with her ever-supportive husband, Billy Tan, celebrated her birthday in chic style at the famed Blackbird at the Nielson Tower in Makati City.
About 70 close friends and guests, all dressed in elegant black, gathered for a sophisticated evening of good cheer and camaraderie.
Adding a touch of glamour to the occasion were charming giveaways: handheld fans embellished with silver rhinestones, which served as lovely keepsakes for the guests. The celebration also featured a playful twist on the traditional birthday cake presentation, with guests using wine glasses to scoop generous portions, turning the familiar ritual into a fun and memorable moment.
