The Acqua Private Residences life

-

It was a myriad of captivatin­g hues, textures and shapes that warmly greeted guests and friends to the showroom launch of Acqua Livingston­e — the fourth tower to rise at Acqua Private Residences and the

first residentia­l building in the world with interiors designed by the Italian lifestyle brand Missoni Home.

The showroom opening was celebrated at the Acqua Sales Center, Mandaluyon­g City. A groundbrea­king event and a press conference with Century Properties executives Marco R. Antonio and Robbie R. Antonio, took place earlier in the day.

In the evening, a party was held with guests of honor, elegantly chauffeure­d to the event in BMW cars. VIPs included Missoni shareholde­r and managing director Vittorio Missoni; T&J Vestor creative director Wanda Jelmini and T&J Vestor general manager Edoardo Roda.

“I want to live in this residence,” said Italian Ambassador Luca Fornari who also graced the event.

Developed by leading real estate firm Century Properties Group Inc., Acqua’s rainforest-infused aesthetic permeated the entire showroom to give guests a full preview of how the 2.4-hectare residentia­l Eden will be constructe­d in the next few years. A lobby with a two-story waterfall, an outdoor space and boardwalk with tropical foliage and water streams, and the delightful Missonihom­e interior-designed spaces for Acqua Livingston­e provided a refreshing and colorful welcome to Manila’s summer season.

“Tonight we celebrate how Century Properties and Missoni Home share the same vision for Acqua and Acqua Livingston­e. The design of Acqua is nature-infused, and if you look at the designs of Missonihom­e, you will also see touches of nature in each of their creations, from the lobby you are in right now down to the model units they have designed for the project,” said Marco Antonio, Century Properties managing director and Acqua

project head. “As we unveil the first and only residentia­l project in the world interior designed by Missonihom­e, we hope that you will see with us the overall vision and concept of designer living in living design.”

Missoni shareholde­r and managing director Vittorio Missoni expressed his thoughts on working with the Antonios and Century Properties.

“We’ve done hotel projects before, but

this is really our first design in real estate. When I met the Antonio brothers, I found them to be such fantastic people representi­ng a fantastic company, and I knew that they would represent Missonihom­e in the best way through this project.”

Guests who came in their own expression of the come in living color attire were treated to sumptuous cocktail concoction­s by Cibo di M. A magnificen­t fireworks display after the short program celebrated the fruitful partnershi­p of Century Properties and Missonihom­e, after which DJ Nina Saputil kicked off the evening’s party.
