Last Christmas 2017, Ortigas & Company awed shoppers of
Estancia with its award-winning Christmas installation Vast Imaginarium which was
inspired by famous contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Mirror Rooms––a
four-room art installation that served as a magical journey for the imagination.
This installation bagged two Silver Stevie Award for Marketing Campaign of the
Year - Retail and Brand Experience of the Year - Consumer for helping cement
Estancia’s reputation as a lifestyle space that promotes the arts.
For this year they are returning with a brand-new theme to
give holiday revelers a pleasant surprise. Officially unveiled last November 12,
Ortigas & Company put together another Christmas must-see dubbed as Sweet
Illusion Chambers in line with the company’s candy land theme this year.
The Sweet Illusion Chambers are delectable rooms with
light installations that bring to mind the candies and desserts that everybody
craves for, especially during the holiday season. These are Instagram-worthy
and interactive rooms are open during mall hours and will run until January 6,
2019.
The four secret rooms are strategically placed across
Capitol Commons––at the mall and the park––with each beholding a fun surprise
for those who venture inside.
For
those who wish to see a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, the Tutti Frutti
or Rainbow Prism Room awaits at the Capitol Commons Park. And inside Estancia,
if you’re in search of a sweet thrill, the Sugar Rush at the Laser Room
promises a feeling a rush quicker than a ray of light. And for those who prefer
a sweet escape, the Candy Blast at the Shadow Light Room offers a delightful
haven that transports you to a candy dreamland. Lastly, if you’re into tasting
the dark side, Special Dark at the Dark Light Room beckons another captivating
exhibit of modern neon displays.
“Ortigas & Company has always valued providing
accessible art to the public, through Estancia’s Vast Imaginarium rooms as well
as this year’s Ortigas Art Festival; We want to continue this effort for the
holidays, so we are bringing back our renowned rooms now called Sweet Illusion Chambers. Estancia has
become Ortigas’ art hub that fosters creativity in the middle of the metro, and
what better way to celebrate that than to launch it this season,” says Arch.
Renee C. Bacani, VP of Ortigas & Company.
Aside from Sweet
Illusions Chambers, Estancia also has a lot in store for shoppers this
