HOMEDEC KL 2025 Draws Strong Crowd at KLCC, Redefines Malaysia’s Home Design Landscape

HOMEDEC KL

KUALA LUMPUR, 10 November 2025 — The curtain has closed on HOMEDEC KL 2025, Malaysia’s largest home design and interior exhibition, which wrapped up on 9 November at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) after drawing thousands of visitors and strong participation from the design and renovation industry.

With more than 350 exhibitors and 1,200 booths, the four-day event reaffirmed HOMEDEC’s position as Malaysia’s most influential home and lifestyle platform, offering everything from renovation solutions and interior décor to smart home technologies and expert design advice.

“For the past 23 years, our mission has remained the same — to make the renovation journey smooth and stress-free,” said Dato’ Vincent Lim, President of C.I.S, the organiser behind HOMEDEC.

“Every great home starts with a vision, and the right guidance brings it to life. We’re proud that HOMEDEC continues to connect Malaysians with trusted professionals and innovations that truly improve how people live.”

Architects and Homeowners Connect in Interactive Design Sessions

A major highlight of this year’s edition was its collaboration with Malaysian Architecture Weeks (MAW) 2025, which introduced the “Meet the Architects” series, eight interactive sessions led by nine award-winning Malaysian architects.

The sessions, including “Your Dream Home, Step by Step” by Ar. Firadaus Khazis and “Avoid the Traps: Homebuilding Do’s and Don’ts” by Ar. Sabirin Rosli, gave homeowners direct access to professional advice on design, sustainability, and budgeting. Many attendees praised the sessions for providing real-world insights into cost management, spatial design, and eco-friendly construction methods.

“We are seeing greater interest among homeowners in sustainable and minimalist living,” said one participating architect. “This year’s discussions reflect a shift toward intelligent budgeting and long-term design value rather than aesthetic trends alone.”

Returning for its second year, the HOMEDEC Showhome: “The Art of Living”, curated by Bauhaus and Forfar Design, attracted steady footfall as visitors explored its blend of form and function. The exhibit demonstrated how spatial harmony and curated materials can transform homes into purposeful living environments, aligning with the 2025 trend of “wellness through design.”

The HOMEDEC Marketplace also showcased the latest in smart home integration, kitchen technologies, and eco-conscious décor solutions, signalling growing consumer interest in sustainable design and technology-led living spaces.

High Engagement, Strong Retail Momentum

The event recorded strong commercial engagement, with retailers reporting robust sales during the four-day showcase. Visitors actively participated in the HOMEDEC Savers campaign, which featured exclusive year-end promotions and the Shop Big Win Big Contest, offering prizes including Toshiba and Weber appliances.

Adding a cultural highlight, Feng Shui Master Suyen Lim’s sessions on “2026 Home Feng Shui Layout” drew packed audiences, underscoring the continued relevance of traditional wisdom in modern Malaysian homes.

Looking Ahead: From Event to Community

Beyond its success as an exhibition, HOMEDEC continues to evolve into a connected homeowner community through its HOMEDEC Frenz platform, offering members exclusive rewards, product previews, and early access to design trends.

Organiser C.I.S said preparations are already underway for next year’s HOMEDEC editions, with a stronger focus on eco-design, space optimization, and AI-assisted renovation tools.

“The enthusiasm this year reaffirms the appetite for innovation in Malaysia’s home and lifestyle sector,” said Dato’ Vincent Lim. “HOMEDEC will continue to serve as the bridge between ideas, inspiration, and implementation.”
