In the bustling heart of Marina Bay Sands, the FiND Design Fair Asia unfurled a tapestry of design marvels, beckoning furniture enthusiasts and trendsetters alike. If you’ve been on the hunt for that perfect piece of furniture to elevate your space, or simply want to be in the know about the latest in furniture sales, this is my humble event recap you can’t afford to skip!
🌟 First Brush with Access to World-Class Designs
The moment I stepped in, the Italian Design Icons Booth beckoned. It was a curated collection where each piece tells a story. From the iconic Poltrauna Frau’s Vanity Fair Red Leather Arm Chair to the avant-garde Artemide Tolomeo LED Table LAMP, the Italian Design Icons Booth (Named: RELATIONABLE) was a testament to timeless elegance. And the best part? Many of these masterpieces are now on sale at XTRA!

🌏 A Dive into Southeast Asian Aesthetics
EMERGE showcased the brilliance of Southeast Asian designers, offering a unique blend of tradition and innovation. Among the standout pieces were the fortune cookie-inspired chair and the radiant golden mushroom lamp. And the pièce de résistance by my friend David from I Am Not David Lee Studio.

EMERGE Marvels: a few caught my eye: Manolo Lounge chair by Rastrullo and Shibo Lamp by Jasser (yes, they look so cute I had to pose next to it!)
🛋️ Spaces of Solitude & Luxury
The Italian sofa bed by POL74, a blend of opulence and functionality, whispered of luxury. If you’ve been eyeing a functional piece of sofa that can be converted to a bed, now’s your chance! It’s available to buy at XTRA Furniture store.

A chance encounter with Charles from Teckell led to a foosball game, but not on any table — a glass one! And the best part? It’s from Italy and available at XTRA furniture. Want a piece of this luxury fun? [Click here].
Oh, and did I mention? Ms Low Yen Ling, the Minister of State, Ministry of Trade and Industry, also enjoyed a game here. Don’t believe me? Here’s the video:
