Padma’s Plantation furniture created a warm and inviting atmosphere in a new home on ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” The March 27th episode featured a family of 11, consisting of a couple with three children of their own, the children’s grandmother, and the five children that they welcomed into their home, following the death of the children’s parents.
The “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” design team demolished the family's three-bedroom house, and built a large, energy-efficient dream home for the new 11-member family. A tropical, Polynesian design style was specified, to reflect the family's Samoan heritage, and Padma’s Plantation was selected as one of the contributors of furniture for the project.
“Our furniture is made from a mix of natural materials, including sea grass, rattan, abaca, water hyacinth, bamboo, coconut palm leaf cover and plantation-grown hardwoods. The furniture blends well with any décor style, especially a tropical/plantation style, which made it a perfect choice for this home designed by Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” says Renee Maria Fanjon, President and Director of Design for Padma’s Plantation. “We welcomed the opportunity to contribute furniture for the home and are proud to have been a part of this worthwhile project for such a deserving family.”
