MANILA, Philippines - The recently-concluded Manila run of the 4th longest-running musicale in theater history, Cats, leaves us with a few “memories” we can hold on to through life. For one, cats, in all of their qualities and differences, are very much like us – individually unique and collectively special. Andrew Lloyd Webber even expresses this through musical eclecticism, whose compositions are a range of musical genres from classical to pop, music hall, jazz, rock, electro-acoustic music, as well as hymnal songs.
It is this eclecticism that has made Cats the success it is with several awards to its name. And it is with the same spirit, the spirit of unity in diversity, that has brought South Forbes Golf City, the country’s largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor, to international acclaim with the Best Golf Community Development by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, and, recently, the Highly Commended Award for Best Development by the 2010 Bloomberg Asia-Pacific Residential Awards.
“We have dubbed South Forbes the ‘whole world in one city’ because of a most unique feature, our internationally-themed Residential Cluster, with modern versions of cultural fusion from east to west,” shared Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng. “Our many differences are what make our world colorful and beautiful.”
West is Best. The rich cultures and traditions of Europe and the United States have been ingrained in our own culture that we have taken them as our own.
Quaint Spanish-inspired homes dot the landscape of the Mediterranean Villas. Even the clubhouse exudes the warmth and vigor of the Iberian coast. Châteaux de Paris is nothing short of regal. Its charming chateaus, majestic clubhouse, and exotic gardens are a constant reminder to its residents that they too can live like royalty. South Forbes’ Miami, like the Floridian tropical hot spot for the hip and famous, is defined by Moderne or Art Deco homes and a village clubhouse where residents feel like celebrities.
Scandia Suites, the sole western-influenced condominium, conveys the sleekness and energy of modern technology. Life here is about living within and beyond the space of one’s own home – work, education, shopping, leisure, and nature.
Recently, South Forbes has unveiled San Diego Homes. With its characteristic tiled roofs, curved parquets and gables, bracketed eaves, and arched arcades, the California Mission Revival style still enjoys great popularity though numerous modern residential, commercial, and institutional structures today.
The Breeze Blows East. The Asian style, indeed, is more “home” to us than any other style. It is more suited to our environment and a reminder of our traditions despite modernization.
Bali Mansions and Nirwana Bali, the first of the Asian Modern enclaves, is a combination lifestyle of tropical indoor-outdoor living, island charm, an exotic culture, and modern conveniences visit the beach resorts of Bali, Indonesia.
The peaceful and private enclave of Phuket Mansions and Phuket Estates continue the contemporary tropical Asian theme, offering a resort lifestyle in a serene and lush paradise.
The value of Tokyo Mansions is the spirit of zen where, through its model homes and community amenities, each person is surrounded in visual simplicity and profound subtlety.
