Manila Design Week 2010 proved to be bigger than its premiere run last year. Each event drew a different crowd, opening with a hiphop crowd for the Wall Lords graffiti competition, turning into a who’s who in fashion and society for What’s In Your Bag? mid-week, closing with a party for young music lovers.
"It’s our second year, so we had more experience and more practice," said Manila Design Week project manager Clara Balaguer. As Team Manila starts planning today for Manila Design Week 2011, what can the Manila graphic design community expect next year? “It will be bigger, exponentially bigger,” promises Balaguer.
