Redefining green architecture

Green chic has found its rightful place among the skyline of the country’s fastest growing commercial district. A proud member of Vista Land & Lifescapes Inc., the country’s largest home builder, Brittany Corp. presents Avant at The Fort — a pioneering development that espouses the philosophy of green architecture. It has not only carved out a landmark structure dedicated to its tenets but has also created a lifestyle that truly promotes green living without sacrificing the modern conveniences that the high life entails.

The 38-storey residential condominium occupies the last remaining area within the much-sought after golden triangle in Crescent Park West, the prime community at the heart of the Bonifacio Global City. Every single unit has an unobstructed view of the metropolis.

Furthermore, the structure was designed to take full advantage of the sunlight. The interiors were oriented to maximize natural air circulation which ensures ample ventilation in all areas – even in common spaces that are often taken for granted such as corridors.

“We are extremely proud of Avant at The Fort. It is a development that truly has a profound effect on the property industry since we have pushed the bar further than anyone before us and have set the new standard for not just building green but living environmentally responsive lives as well,” said Vista Land president and CEO Jing Serrano.

As the philosophy of green architecture implies, Avant is designed with many garden areas in mind. But unlike other properties where green spaces are often found only on the ground level, this property has taken the cliché, “the sky is the limit,” to heart. A centerpiece of this unique development is the Sky Garden on the 31st floor. Under the masterful hands of landscape architect Paolo Alcazaren, this will be transformed into an oasis literally in the middle of an urban jungle. The space can also be used as a function room by the residents for their various outdoor activities.

“The difference of Avant from all other high-rise condo developments is the fact that you are never too far from the outdoors — aside from the ground level gardens, we have mid-level gardens and roof-deck gardens, all carrying the same palette of plant materials so there’s continuity of experience,” explained architect Albert Yu.

This abundance of greeneries provides the perfect backdrop for the other wide range of amenities that Avant offers its residents. Located at the ground level is a free-form pool that can be enjoyed by everyone – from children having fun to the stressed out executive in need of a tension-release or who just simply want to stay fit.

A beautifully landscaped area nearby will be dedicated to a massage cove which further complements the relaxation and rejuvenation that the area provides. A lanai and a sprawling garden complete the outdoor experience for residents who simply want to soak up the sun outside their respective units. Another convertible function room is also close by where more events and private parties can be held without disturbing the other residents.

Fitness buffs can enjoy a great workout with the best fitness equipment at the gym on the second level. Whether working with weights or running the treadmill, they can enjoy working up a sweat while overlooking the swimming pool below.

For those with green thumbs who cannot live without their own garden, two specially designed units on the ground floor cater specifically to this need. These garden units allow its residents to cultivate their own flower beds and the likes within their own homes. Furthermore, these are fitted with jacuzzis which provide further means of relaxation in a more private space.

“Avant truly offers so much more than what a modern development is expected to deliver. The amenities it provides attest to a thorough understanding of our clientele’s specialized needs and discriminating taste. Indeed, living green is truly the highest standard of living,” concluded Serrano.
