Escalades goes green

MANILA, Philippines - These days, green is the thing, whether you’re talking about cosmetics that haven’t been tested on animals or recycling. Many people around the world do their part to save the planet, from reusing stuff to saving water. Sustainability is the key to living a green lifestyle.

Green architecture is more than just a fad. It is the wave of the future. Escalades at the 20th Avenue is a development of Robinsons Land Corp. in Cubao, Quezon City that was built allowing for passive and active cooling and the maximum use of daylight.

Green architecture is a mix of technologies and techniques.

The project’s six buildings were constructed so that each unit and hallway would allow more natural sunlight while providing greater air ventilation.

“This saves owners from added utility expenses in the long run because there is lesser need to use lights and air-conditioning. Plus, living in natural light and fresh air definitely improves a person’s quality of life,” says Marilu Alferez Robinsons Land Corp. Housing & Land Development Division SVP and general manager.

 Alferez adds that every floor of the 6 buildings in the 1.4-hectare development has only 12 units in every floor so that every occupant has his or her own private space, literally and figuratively.

You can own a unit at Escalades at the 20th Avenue for as low as P6,000 monthly. For more information, contact 397-1888, 397-0101 and  0922-8380888, or go to www.-robinsonsproperties.com.ph.
