IFC’s EDGE Certification for Serviced Residences – Ascott Makati

Posted on February 27, 2019 by Peps Pepz

Ascott Makati has achieved EDGE green building certification from the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, on 26 February 2019 ─ a global recognition since it is the first to receive such distinction in the service residence category of EDGE. EDGE is an innovative green building certification system that helps reduce a building’s energy and water consumption and decrease greenhouse-gas emissions, which in turn drives operational efficiency and reduces environmental impacts. Ascott Makati reflects the aspirations of its guests’ commitment to sustainability. With the property’s attainment of EDGE’s minimum standard of a 20 percent reduction in the use of energy, water, and the energy that goes into making the construction materials, the certification creates an opportunity for high-performing urban dwellings. There are unique operational requirements and building elements for serviced residences which affect consumption patterns. The serviced residence category of EDGE ensures an accurate benchmark against which properties can be measured and awarded. “Our commitment to EDGE is an acknowledgement of the premium we bring to our guests through sustainable practices,” said Philip Barnes, The Ascott Limited Philippines’ Area Head for Luzon. “Ascott Makati’s EDGE certification will pave the way for more properties to be certified under this international green benchmark that has great potential for the serviced residence industry. EDGE certification is a great beginning to our partnership with IFC, which includes expanding research and implementing the sustainable design of serviced residences in emerging regions.” “We want to be leaders in the serviced residence industry’s development of green technology and design practices,” said Daniel Wee, Country General Manager of The Ascott Limited Philippines. “We need to be rooted in our vision to uphold and advance our procedures for protecting the environment, for the benefit of our customers.” With an increasing global demand by corporate clients for properties with green features, the obtaining of EDGE certification status by Ascott Makati is a game changer in the industry.

EXPERIENCE KUYSEN

Posted on February 14, 2019 by Peps Pepz

EXPERIENCE KUYSEN

On the 21st of February 2019, the Kuysen Design and Experience Center, a five-storey, multi-function building will open its doors to its valued guests. A showroom that is first of its kind in the Philippines. Kuysen, one of the leading source in luxury home furniture and fixtures promises an experience beyond the ordinary. This single day event will treat guests to an experience that indulges the senses in celebration of Kuysen’s 30th year in the industry. The impressive fixtures and sheer massive space of the showroom are brought to life by the hands of esteemed architect and interior designer, Ed Calma. This is the first showroom that he designed as a luxury home. When it comes to designing a living space, Calma considers making the space unique to the users by incorporating elements such as use of materials and expressing them in a different way. He demonstrates this uniqueness by adding the signature Ed Calma touch to each specialized floor of the Kuysen Design and Experience Center. According to him,

“The Kuysen showroom is located along arow of boxy buildings in Jupiter street. This gave me an opportunity to break the line of boxes by splaying the floors of the building into separate forms allowing Kuysen to define each floor to house a particular brand or product. The curvilinear facade creates a segmented facade of glass of different angles that minimizes direct heat gain into the building.”

Calmauses hierarchy for the form, materials, and color to unify the internal and external elements in a design. The key, he says, is to have a dominant element to which all other aspects have to be subservient. Doing so will ensure all elements will fall into place and make sense as a whole, thereby creating a beautiful, well-curated space. All floors were furnished with a consistent theme of dark wood that brings the whole building design together. The architectural interior fit out products such as sliding doors and hardware which were intended to increase the spatial experience of the showroom.

Indeed, nothing brings out luxury more than the Kuysen Design and Experience Center. This showroom is breathtaking. Upon entering, one will be in awe of the beautiful furniture that is settled on perfect spots in the massive room. The ground floor, called LuxeLiving, features a Kuysen curated space that allows clients to visualize an actual living area with the selection of luxury brands such as Porro, Living Divani, Poggenpohl and Vibia.

The second floor is devoted to customizable furniture that inspires individuality where an elegant whiskey bar can also be found. It is called Bespoke as it celebrates individuality and expression of oneself. One can create expressive furniture reflectingtheir own personal taste and lifestyle. One can go from eclectic to contemporary by simply selecting from our leather and fabric collection. The items are handcrafted by artisans using traditional techniques.

Some of these are pieces were even shown on display at the Metropolitan Museum. Drawing inspiration from the furniture pieces in this floor, architects and designers will be pleased to have a co-working space they can use to make urgent revisions or simply come up with an entirely new design on their own.
