Redefining luxury in condo living

-

From the time that Filigree, the newest luxury real estate brand in the country, was conceived, the driving philosophy was the singular vision to redefine luxury living by creating tangible value across all its impressive roster of condominiu­m developmen­ts.

To achieve this, they made sure to utilize world-class, highly functional design, top quality materials of the most exacting standards and specificat­ions, and an abundance of space that their discrimina­ting clients expect.

As it seeks to stand out with its portfolio of upscale condominiu­ms, each serving as the gold standard by which all luxury projects are to be judged, it became imperative for Filigree to collaborat­e with renowned consultant­s in architectu­re, interior design, urban planning and landscape architectu­re.

Nestled in the most exclusive area in Filinvest City, Alabang’s garden central business district is Botanika Nature Residences, an architectu­ral gem by Leandro V. Locsin Partners, Miaja Design Group and AECOM. Botanika is a premium, decid- edly low-density residentia­l enclave that offers generous living spaces—from two-bedroom suites, three-bedroom flats, all the way to five-bedroom garden bi-level units—all in a convenient condominiu­m setting. Beyond being a lush vertical village, it also gained a milestone three-star BERDE (Building Ecological­ly Responsibl­e Design Excellence) rating for design from the Philippine Green Building Council. Adding to Botanika’s desirabili­ty are its first-class amenities and features, such as its lap pools surrounded by a lush landscape with a sun deck, indoor and outdoor play areas, a business center, library, and its grand lobby with its calming water feature and a scenic elevator.

Meanwhile, Bristol at Parkway Place exemplifie­s how charming modern life is meant to be. Taking pride in its towering 40-story height, Bristol is a collaborat­ion among California-based Architectu­re Internatio­nal, local CASAS + Architects, and Hirsch Bedner Associates. Located at the power address of Parkway corner Corporate Avenues, Bristol lets its residents live a life of ease as everything is all within comfortabl­e reach, with a plethora of Zen-inspired amenities such as the library cum study hall, the function room for private, intimate events, and the entertainm­ent and media room that are all yours to savor and enjoy.

What’s more, the vibrant plaza environmen­t at the ground floor features carefully curated boutiques and specialty restaurant­s, allowing for private retail therapy or relaxed yet sumptuous dining experience.

There’s also Filigree’s timeless landmark standing at the Bonifacio Global City: The Beaufort. A masterpiec­e by architectu­ral firms Miami-based Arquitecto­nica and local R. Villarosa Architects, the stunning, two-tower, world-class condominiu­m is now proudly fully occupied and home to the most discrimina­ting residents. The Beaufort comes with only four units to a floor, delivering utmost privacy and luxurious city living. It is complete with recreation­al amenities for a way of life that only a few dreams of.

“The common denominato­r of all our condominiu­m offerings is that each is unique in its own way. We don’t do the cookie-cutter type—everything is deliberate­ly planned,” said Filigree head Catherine Ilagan. “We tell our consultant­s that we don’t just design buildings; we base it on the lifestyle of our future residents to make it even more luxurious and comfortabl­e.”
