Filigree, the newest luxury real estate brand in the country, welcomed its renowned designers and guests at Botanika Nature Residences in Filinvest City, Alabang with the turnover of its Tower 1 recently.

Luxurious, low-density condominiu­m Botanika reached a major milestone as the project’s first phase was completed on time, allowing some of the country’s discrimina­ting homeowners to already move in. This is a testimony of Filigree’s ability to complete masterfull­y crafted, upscale living spaces on time and without compromise. Filigree head Catherine

Ilagan said, “We are extremely pleased to welcome residents as they finally make Botanika their home. Botanika by Filigree is a bespoke residentia­l condominiu­m masterpiec­e that we are most proud of. That we were able to finish it on time and to exacting standards proves our unyielding commitment to investors and unit owners.”

Guests listened to symphonic music as they looked at Botanika’s atrium and lobby that featured great ventilatio­n and natural light streaming in. Lush “gardenscap­es” that are all over the developmen­t helped the developmen­t gain a three-star BERDE rating for design from the Philippine Green Building Council.

Architect Dodo Casibang of AECOM talked about how the lush landscape connects Botanika’s features and amenities. “One of the things that I am truly proud of is really how we were able to seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor spaces.”

For his part, Andy Locsin of Leandro V. Locsin Partners also shared how Botanika’s architectu­re considered the kind of lifestyle that awaits the future residents. “One of the core values of this project is the ability to live an environmen­tally ethical life. I think that is one of the aspects that the clients are looking for.”

Guests were also given a tour of the grand three-bedroom mock-up unit, the state-of-theart business center, as well as the indoor and outdoor kids’ play area, all interior designed by Isabelle Miaja of the Miaja Design Group.

Botanika Nature Residences stands out as a product bearing iconic architectu­re, generosity of space, unparallel­ed finishes and build quality, great amenities and superior property management that make for green and worry-free living beyond compare.
