Amiya Raya's resort living in the new normal

With everything that is happening around us, your home is your sanctuary. It is where you feel most safe and relaxed. Having a haven where you feel free and can do many things, improves your overall quality of life, giving you space to spend time alone or with the people you love.

Owning land can be expensive, and there is a need for well-built and thoughtfully designed quality living spaces that people could enjoy. This is what the people behind Amiya Raya had in mind when they conceptualized the development east of Quezon City. In Hindu-Sanskrit, Amiya Raya means “a view that delights the senses, a description that captures the essence of the development.

 

“Having no choice but to stay home during the 2-month long community quarantine has made many recognize the importance of having ample spaces to move around,” Arlene Jacosalem, AVP - Marketing and Business Development shares.

“Another is that the current pandemic showed us the importance of having a safe retreat for our family: one with big open spaces to make physical distancing possible, a breathable environment to move around in, and scenic views that are ideal, both for working from home and for relaxation.”

Your Sanctuary In The East
The exclusive, an Asian-themed, residential enclave boasts of a stunning 270-degree view of the city, Laguna de Bay, and the Rizal mountain ranges. On February 2020, Amiya Raya launched Phase 4 of its development, which has a limited number of residential lots and cuts ranging from 250 to 755 square meters. With less than 50% remaining in inventory, this phase offers a much more exclusive neighborhood with lots having some of the highest peaks and best views in the said development.

The homes at Amiya Raya allow its residents to to live with nature, a delightful experience for the soul and the senses. Its designs are inspired by various Asian architectural concepts – modern, minimalist and Zen. It boasts of spit-level structures that enhances the use of ground space and opens interesting visual perspectives around the living area. Open your windows and take a view over Manila from the highlands of San Mateo, Rizal.

These structures are also known for their classic, cleanliness, simple yet luxurious appointments, generous open living areas, efficient use of space, and sense of natural tropical style. In the heart of the house design intent, is to blend in, and not obstruct nature.

 

A Balance of City and Resort Living
Amiya Raya is currently working on the completion of its 3,100-square meter clubhouse and sports facility, an 11-hectare nature park, a village center, and a retail area. Situated 240 meters above sea-level and enveloped by its natural environs, it offers resort-like living that is only a 15-minute drive from the city. It is located in San Mateo, Rizal, which makes it close to places of interests such as schools, churches, malls, and government offices. Visit @AmiyaRayaOfficialPage on Facebook for more information on this highland development.

The stability of the real estate industry makes owning property a sound and reasonable investment. Apart from that you will have your very own place where you can completely be yourself and just be. Check out the two units available:

"COCOON" - THE NEWEST FASHION GEAR BY JEROME SALAYA ANG

For our extra shot into safety, especially if we are already allowed to go out during this time of COVID 19, noted fashion designer JEROME SALAYA ANG has conceptualized, designed and executed his latest take on Covid fashion with "COCOON."

For this stylized design, Jerome defined "cocoon" as 'to envelop' or surround in a protective or comforting way. To wrap or cloak. This new normal in everyday get-up will help us protect ourselves from any airborne diseases and viruses. Getting closer is no longer a problem and social distancing will be lessened with added protection.

"We are now living at the edge of a new era. The design philosophy was aimed to be more sporty and flexible so that there is more movability factor when it is worn.
And, the sizing is meant to be 'free' and genderless. After all, this is what the future is --- it's all about mobility.
We also considered our weather here so we opted the usage of lightweight material which is of upmost importance."

Ang will be exploring with these types of fabrication that will best suit our weather including it's weight which has to be light. And most specially, it is washable for re-use. For me it would be a very important factor as the climate in the Philippines is very warm.

1. Screen mesh 180mm grade (Please see photos)
2. Crumpled laminated paper sheet
3. Silicon plastic
4. Micro fiber repellant silver back
5. 1 ply taffeta silk

The Cocoon.
A loving embrace.
The covid wardrobe.

Support and buy local.

Must see movie and theater productions this weekend

We've got a lot to watch this weekend. I've listed again new movie and theater productions that you shouldn't miss and to be able to support the actors and artists behind the camera and curtains during this pandemic caused by Covid 19.

Sunday Beauty Queen
2016's Best Picture in the Metro Manila Film Festival will be streaming on Youtube starting May 15. This depicts the life of Filipina domestic helpers in Hong Kong and how they have fun every weekend through a beauty pageant during their day-off. Laugh and cry to this wonderful masterpiece from Baby Ruth Villarama.

CATS
Andrew Lloyd Webber invites everyone to the Jellicle Ball from May 15-16 on Youtube. Watch the cats perform their numbers to be chosen to the Heaviside Layer. This is not the Rebel Wilson, Taylor Swift et al version in 2019.

Mula Sa Buwan

Find yourself in 1940s Manila, among young ROTC cadets and blushing colegialas. In a time of innocence and beauty on the cusp of change. Music, harana, kundiman, wit, passion, and hope abound – and then war strikes. Love and ideals are all tested, the young now forced to suddenly "grow up".

The musical moves to a time after the war, to a field of ruble, of forgotten memories, of heroes lost in a country struggling to survive. At the center of it all, the timeless love story between Cyrano, Roxane, and Christian.

Streaming this May 16.

Continue to support the artists all over the world and be mindful of unofficial streaming links that scammers use for their own personal gains. If you can donate, please do.
