The charm and appeal of urban courtyard living in Alveo’s Portico in Ortigas
MANILA, Philippines — Those who have ever been in the market for a home probably feel they have seen it all in terms of the kinds of lifestyle that developments claim to provide. Especially in the past couple of years, many city dwellers have been searching for one that provides not just physical well-being but gives an overall sense of safety and peace of mind.
This kind of wellness is largely defined as being able to adapt to the demands of modern living. While home used to be just a place to look forward to after a long day at work or school, it is now a space where one spends the majority of their time doing these very activities. Thus, it should be genuinely and holistically nurturing—a veritable sanctuary that effectively renews, recharges and re-energizes on a daily basis.
