MANILA, Philippines - We choose the city. No matter how we rant about the congestion on its streets or the frantic lifestyle it demands, we still choose to be urban dwellers. We opt to take our chances and compete because we recognize the various opportunities and conveniences the city offers. We choose its asphalt and cement roads, its towering concrete and glass structures, and its blinding lights. We choose the metro’s cold chaos. But we ache for green.
The “green factor,” in fact, is an important factor in today’s living. We long for that refreshing air of verdant and spacious greenery; we aspire for a relaxing home environment that takes us away from the indifference of the workplace; and we yearn for a sanctuary — our own little everyday getaway.
Property development firm Federal Land, in recognition of this fundamental yet complex market need, introduces Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes.
Strategically set on an expanse in the historic district of Paco in the city of Manila, this enclosed, self-contained community of mid-rise residential buildings aims to redefine modern condominium living.
Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes recently held its first concrete pouring ceremony and showroom blessing attended by key officials of Federal Land Inc. led by its general manager, Jose Mari Banzon, and its first vice president, Dennis Lim.
Two of Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes’ model units, designed by interior designer Grace Milan, are called “Modern Sense” and “Garden Breeze.” These two themes were the key design inspirations used for the model units in Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes.
For the “Modern Sense” theme done on a 57.5-square-meter, two-bedroom unit, Milan utilized red, black and white for its color schemes. The unit is geared for start-up couples that would likely want a unit that’s close to their work place and schools for their children.
For the “Garden Breeze theme, Milan artfully blended espresso and vanilla, plus accents of pea green as color schemes for a 75-square-meter two-bedroom corner unit. It features a perfect setup of vintage furniture and accessories, and is seen as an ideal setup for homemakers who love to do the arranging of the interiors of the house.
