Filipino heritage, craft, and design were at the heart of the recent ArteFino Fair, themed “Ka-PAMANA” and sponsored by Security Bank. The winners of the Stilo ArteFino Awards were announced during a cocktail reception at The Fifth at Rockwell in Power Plant Mall.
Security Bank co-presented the Modern Filipino Award, which was won by designer Jor-el Espina. The award recognized the overall best brand with products design for the modern consumer, a strong online presence, and a commitment to Filipino design and community engagement. Overall brand presentation including concept, booth design, visual merchandising, and packaging were also part of the judging criteria.
Other Stilo ArteFino Award winners included: The Fine Life Market (Best Booth); Steph Verano (Best Product for Women’s Fashion); Emerie Studios (Best Product for Men’s Fashion); Project Nova Tote Bags (Best Product for Accessories); The Olive Tree (Best Product for Home); and Likha + Mundo (Pamana by Rockwell).
The Bank’s debit and credit cardholders enjoyed free entry to the fair and were entitled to 0% installment for three to 12 months for a minimum spend of PHP10,000 using their Security Bank credit card. Furthermore, shoppers were invited to Security Bank Gold Circle, an exclusive membership program for VIP banking.
In October, Security Bank will be joining forces with ArteFino again for the third Maker’s Lab: Totally Upcycled Design Challenge—a call to the design community to submit functional products using denim, wood, fabric, plaster, or paper. Entries will be displayed in a special setting, with an awarding ceremony in October.
