Let’s Play Jak en Poy
The 2011 graduating students of the Philippine School of Interior Design (PSID) play “Jak en Poy” as they showcase their home designing skill. But why title a clearly luxurious interior exhibit as such? These bunch of young interior designers gather sustainable elements such as rock, paper, rubber, mud, plastic, bamboo, metal, and mirror that are eminent in the 20 booths.
Nowadays, Filipinos still practice the contentment of simply having a house. Some have a misconception that interior designing is not essential in home planning. Hence, people say “Pwede na yan at least may bahay.” What comes to mind is spending money and not expressing creativity, which is largely what interior design is catering. Through this exhibit, it channels creativity beyond the restrictions of matter - as to money.
Here are some of their works:

Notice the light coming out from the Mindoro-stone flooring?

That girl is made of rubber.

See the Chinese garter?

Those cabinets are made of balikbayan boxes. Mind you, those are capable of carrying heavy objects and last long.

This booth presents the various faces that plastic can imitate.

Who would’ve thought pipes can look this good?

In this living room, mirror tells a story.

This room pictures Alice and Wonderland.

This one is a very feminine lounge.

This room boasts that metal has timeless beauty.

The details on the ceiling are remarkable.
Indeed, luxury does not always have to be spending money. Sometimes it’s just a mix of good aesthetics, creativity, and resourcefulness. Congratulations PSID Advanced Class 2011!
