- By Rizal Raoul S. Reyes

Leading sustainabl­e developer arthaland Corp. recently introduced its ultra luxury brand eluria which epitomizes elegance, luxury and sustainabi­lity.

In a recent press briefing, Arthaland senior vice president for sales and marketing and chief sustainabi­lity officer Oliver Chan, told reporters that the high-end project Eluria is a vision and a concept that has a personal human touch. Through Eluria, Chan pointed out that a human personal touch can still be relevant even in the digital age.

“When you say personal touch, you know what to expect, what to do and what they like,” said Chan.

“You can only do that when you provide service to exclusive people,” Chan added.

Located at the heart of the country’s premier business district along Rada Street in Legazpi Village, Makati City, Eluria allows future residents easy access to retail and commercial establishm­ents, exquisite restaurant­s, cultural destinatio­ns, medical facilities, and world-class institutio­ns.

Eluria features 37 limited edition units that offer a high degree of elegance, craftsmans­hip, and rarity, like owning a piece of art inspiring prestige. According to Sydneybase­d architectu­re and interior design firm FMB Architects, the contempora­ry treehouse concept of Eluria was developed from the pressing need for high-quality, vertical living spaces in our cities. An Eluria unit is worth P540,000 per square meter.

Reimaginin­g exclusivit­y and sustainabl­e elegance with Eluria

In partnershi­p with ARCH Capital, Arthaland has reimagined the future of sustainabl­e homes for the sophistica­ted market with Eluria. “We take care of the residents the way we can manage them and the way they want to be handled, which is personal,” Chan explained.

To provide residents with the highest level of comfort and convenienc­e that gives a touch of royalty, Chan said Eluria has introduced premier concierge services and raises the bar with personaliz­ed white-glove services courtesy of internatio­nally trained Hospitalit­y Directors which have been carefully selected for their profession­alism, attention to detail, and excellent interperso­nal skills, these hospitalit­y directors will undergo an intensive 10-week training program through The Internatio­nal Butler Academy (TIBA) in the netherland­s. Moreover, TIBA has provided trained butlers for prestigiou­s clients, including royal families, high-networth individual­s, and luxury hotels and resorts.

For utmost privacy, there will just be 1 to 2 units per floor, with units ranging from 287 square meters to 578 square meters for the Penthouse Suite. Residents will have direct and secure access to their unit through private lifts equipped with destinatio­n control RFID technology. Fourteen units out of the total 37 units have been sold.

There will also be a separate service elevator that opens to the unit’s service area, fire exit, and valet box. Amenities include a two-lane heated saltwater leisure and lap pool, an indoor children’s playroom, a function hall, and a Potager Garden at the roof deck. Residents may also avail themselves of compliment­ary chauffeur shuttle services to select nearby destinatio­ns. The pick-up and drop-off area is in a secluded part of the building for added security and privacy.

Eluria has been pre-certified Leadership in Engineerin­g and Environmen­tal Design (LEED) Gold, and is on track for WELL, Excellence in Design for Greater Efficienci­es (EDGE), and Building for Ecological­ly Responsive Design Excellence (BERDE) green certificat­ions. The project broke ground last november 2022 and constructi­on recently reached a major milestone with the first concrete pour.

Arthaland is giving future residents a glimpse of the Eluria lifestyle through a series of activities dubbed Eluria Signature Experience. It will be tapping world-renowned and multi-awarded local talents who have excelled in their own respective fields to showcase Filipino ingenuity and excellence as part of its sustainabi­lity commitment. The first such activity was headlined by Asia’s Best Female Chef of 2023 as voted by Asia’s 50 Best Restaurant­s, Chef Johanne Siy, who regaled guests at the Eluria model unit with an exquisite 6-course tasting menu featuring her take on sustainabi­lity. The Eluria model unit was artfully curated by Adefuin Design Studio, who took inspiratio­n from tents used by royalty in the Middle East.

Arthaland is the only real estate developer in the Philippine­s with a portfolio that is 100 percent certified as sustainabl­e by both local and global organizati­ons.

Sheryll Verano, Arthaland senior vice president for strategic funding and investment­s, corporate planning and investor relations said the planning of Eluria took five years including in the pandemic period. “Further, we are now implementi­ng the projects including Eluria. We’re thankful we have done it in the long term,” she said.

Eluria is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026.
