A recent Facebook post has ignited buzz and speculation about an upcoming makeover for SM Megamall, one of the largest shopping malls in the Philippines.
According to the post, behind the mall’s ambitious project will be designed by the renowned international architectural firm Benoy, known for their work on iconic projects such as Jewel Changi Airport in Singapore and ICONSIAM in Thailand.
Drawing inspiration from the Philippines’ identity as a “country of a thousand islands,” Benoy’s design concept for SM Megamall is said to feature a “Crystal Islands” aesthetic, promising a unique and visually stunning experience for visitors.
The makeover is reported to include additional retail space, an indoor garden, and updated cinemas, enhancing the mall’s appeal and offering a fresh experience for shoppers.
While details remain scarce, the potential collaboration between Benoy and SM Megamall has already generated excitement among mall-goers and architectural enthusiasts alike.
