HOME/DESIGN

FEDERAL Land recently launched the second tower of the Grand Midori Ortigas, offering more Filipinos the chance to experience a Zeninspired sanctuary in the city.

Federal Land tapped into the creativity of world-renowned Tokyobased architecture firm Tange Associates as the project’s Design Consultant. The firm is known for combining traditional Japanese artistry with modern perspectives as seen in its work on Yoyogi Gymnasium, St. Mary Cathedral, and the Tokyo Aquatics Center. For The Grand Midori Ortigas, Tange Associates forged the authentic infusion of Japanese design and innovation into the building’s architecture to create a unique living experience that is both elegant and purposeful.

Expression of elegance

The Grand Midori Ortigas features a façade that combines the Japanese tatami with the Filipino “banig” to craft a flowing weave pattern that provides a comforting feel of Filipino home. The façade’s horizontal and vertical louvers also serve as a form of climate control measure to improve air flow and quality as well as a sunshade device. Inside, amenity spaces are inspired by the Japanese concepts ‘wabi-sabi’ which refers to finding beauty in imperfection, and ‘miyabi’ defined by the expression of elegance and refinement, presents a unique living experience for mindful and contemporary urbanites.

The Grand Midori Ortigas offers thoughtfully-designed residential units that make elements flow harmoniously, with light and airy interiors framed by expansive windows. Potential homeowners can choose from a variety of unit types at Tower 2: studio (35.5 to 38sqm), one-bedroom (48 to 64sqm), and two-bedroom (69 to 107sqm) variations. All units are built in consideration of creative and practical space planning to provide homeowners the leeway for personal design and comfort.
