South Forbes moves Fjord-ward with Scandia Suites
MANILA, Philippines - Scandinavian design emerged in the 1950s in the four Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Norway and Sweden, as well as Finland. It is a design movement characterized by simple designs, minimalism, functionality, and low-cost mass production. It’s essentially timeless with sleek lines and a neutral palette that add a sense of elegance to any home.
Today, the same style adorns 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, and recipient of 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 Award, through its latest condominium development, the twin-tower Scandia Suites.
“The mix of minimalism, functionality, stream-lined contours, quality materials and quirky details is what truly sets Scandinavian design apart from the rest,” said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng. “And with Scandia Suites’ sophisticated style and functionality, it highlights the innovative spirit and unique character that South Forbes is known for.”
Scandia Suites is a walled compound where security is of utmost importance and amenities are kept private for the sole enjoyment of its residents.
Early birds who need a burst of endorphins before heading on to work can take an hour of jogging at the path which runs along the perimeter or take a few laps at the pool. Of course, post-work workouts can also induce a deeper sleep. After the rigors of school, children can come home and spend a few minutes at the playground with other kids before hitting the books again.
Shopping services will never come easier with the ground level dedicated to the immediate needs of its residents. A double shot of espresso from the café can kick-start your day while shopping for essentials like food, toiletries or magazines at the grocery can complete a shopping list. Mom can wait for her laundry to finish at the laundromat while getting a perm at the salon next door. It is total convenience without having to drive in heavy traffic or to search for parking.
“More commercial spaces are available now that the second tower is under construction,” added Ng.
Homeowners these days prefer a residence that is high in style but low in upkeep. There are four basic unit types to choose from: studio, one, two, and three-bedroom units. And for those who need some more extra space, loft units are located on the topmost floor.
Should one decide to avail of a fully-furnished unit, he will certainly enjoy the timeless, fresh, and elegant design motif -- one that’s free of clutter, yet warm and welcoming. It makes a nice change from traditional designs.
