First YORI Fan Art Contest drew over 500 entries nationwide!

Over a year since YORI was introduced to the market, the brand has been a part of every starter’s  home. They have been committed to building furniture that is smart, easy, yet rewarding to own. 

From product design down to customer service, the dedicated team behind YORI designed the  whole brand experience for the customers. A DIY (do-it-yourself) project doesn’t have to be complicated to be rewarding—this is what YORI is all about. 

So, to celebrate their love for design and their followers, YORI opened a fan art contest that ran  from April 20, 2021 to May 15, 2021. Despite being a new brand, YORI received over 500 entries  from different artists nationwide. The overwhelming response from the participants made the  competition stiff and the selection of winners challenging. Many artworks were exceptionally good,  

but only three emerged as winners. 

The announcement of the YORI Fan Art Contest was posted on YORI’s official Facebook page  on May 18, 2021, 5PM.  

YORI selected the following winners: 

Nathaniel Surbano Refermoso – Grand Prize 

Xander Agcopra – Consolation Prize 

Mary Kay M. Daguro – Consolation Prize 

The team would also like to recognize these young talents: Bernadette Anne M. Miguel and Nicole  Kates A. Samonte for their exceptional artworks: 

The grand winner incorporated Aya, Riku, Yori ‘the cat’, and Kaiso Bookshelf in his brightly  colored illustration. The rest of the winners drew inspiration from their personal experiences and  favorite memories in life. 

Grand prizes include Jobu Table and Kaoku Loveseat, meanwhile, two runners-up brought home  Sagyo Mini Desk. 

YORI is also excited to announce that there will be a bigger fan art contest that everyone needs to  watch out for soon.  

YORI products are available at SM Home branches nationwide and ShopSM.com. The customers  can also purchase via SM Call to Order by dialing #143SM (#14376).
