Eluria reimagines exclusivity, sustainable elegance

GREEN developer

Arthaland, in partnership with ARCH Capital, is building Eluria, an art-inspired condominium development along Rada Street in Legazpi Village, Makati City.

Featuring 37 limited edition units that offer a high degree of elegance and craftsmanship, the project sits in the middle of the Makati business district with easy access to retail and commercial establishments, restaurants, cultural destinations, medical facilities, and world-class institutions.

Treehouse concept one to two units per floor, with units ranging from 287 square meters to 578 square meters for the penthouse suite. Residents will have direct and secure access to their unit through private lifts equipped with destination control RFID technology. There will also be a separate service elevator that opens to the unit’s service area, fire exit, and valet box. Amenities include a two-lane heated saltwater leisure and lap pool, an indoor children’s playroom, a function hall, and a Potager Garden at the roof deck. Residents may also avail themselves of complimentary chauffeur shuttle services to select nearby destinations. The pick-up and drop-off area is in a secluded part of the building for added security and privacy

According to Sydney-based architecture and interior design firm FMB Architects, the contemporary treehouse concept of Eluria was developed from the pressing need for high-quality, vertical living spaces in our cities. People want to live in the city, with the same quality of life afforded by living in a house with a garden.

Eluria boasts premier concierge services and raises the bar with personalized whiteglove services courtesy of internationally trained hospitality directors. Carefully selected for their professionalism, attention to detail, and excellent interpersonal skills, these individuals will undergo an intensive 10-week training program through The International Butler Academy (TIBA) in the Netherlands. TIBA is the most innovative butler service training institute in the world. They train butlers for prestigious clients, including royal families, high-net- worth individuals, and luxury hotels and resorts.

Eluria has been pre-certified LEED Gold, and is on track for WELL, EDGE, and BERDE green certifications. The project broke ground last November 2022 and construction recently reached a major milestone with the first concrete pour. Eluria is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026. Signature experience Arthaland is giving future residents a glimpse of the Eluria lifestyle through a series of activities dubbed Eluria Signature Experience. It will be tapping world-renowned and multi-awarded local talents who have excelled in their own respective fields to showcase Filipino ingenuity and excellence as part of its sustainability commitment.

The first activity was recently headlined by Asia’s Best Female Chef of 2023 as voted by Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants, Chef Johanne Siy, who regaled guests at the Eluria model unit with a 6-course tasting menu featuring her take on sustainability. The Eluria model unit was curated by Adefuin Design Studio, who took inspiration from tents used by royalty in the Middle East.
