Self-sustaining Communities: Your Next Property Investment
When it comes to your next property investment, it helps to think about your present circumstances, as well as how you imagine your future living situation. Since the quarantine period was first implemented last year, many workplaces have adopted a work-from-home set-up, causing people to inevitably spend more time indoors.
Because of the extended WFH situation, more and more people are looking for safe spaces that are open and relaxed, so they can regularly get some fresh air and stretch their legs. Additionally, consumers are beginning to see the benefits of living a lifestyle rooted in balance, as they scout for properties away from the excess bustle of central business districts.
Real estate in townships and nearby communities by the fringes of CBDs are gaining popularity because of its proximity to essential establishments and conveniences, while allowing you to escape excessive commotion––after all, living in the heart of a CBD may put you in the center of all the action, but at the expense of peace and quiet.
If you desire a more well-rounded lifestyle that allows you to live life in balance amid WFH, then it’s time to look into properties situated in calmer and greener communities. Many of these townships or self-sustaining communities are located in the south of Metro Manila such as Muntinlupa or Parañaque, offering more lush greenery while still staying close to the metro.
How WFH has shaped living in the new normal
The remote working scheme has shifted our priorities when it comes to our living situations. While the old nine-to-five schedule might have made proximity to the workplace a priority in the past, distance becomes less of an issue when the work is primarily home-based.
As people are spending more and more time indoors, they naturally want to be able to breathe, stretch their legs, and safely interact beyond the walls of their homes. As the lines between work and home become blurred, families and residents now prefer being situated in communities that allow them to live a more holistic lifestyle, where a quick jog, bike ride, or even just a breath of fresh air is just minutes away from their doorstep.
Many people are considering a calmer, greener community closer to urban conveniences
Under the WFH scheme, employees and professionals no longer have to brave the daily traffic on their commute to work. This gives them the liberty to move farther away from major metropolitan districts, and settle down in less busier parts of the metro with open, nature-filled environments.
As people realize the need for healthier lifestyles, families are now on the lookout for green and peaceful communities that give them room to move, work out, explore, and live life to the fullest. Lush lawns, pocket gardens and planned outdoor spaces provide the landscape for residents to breathe and relax, and a secure environment for children to play and make memories. These areas provide them a respite from the urban bustle, while staying close to the comforts of the city. These include malls, banks, groceries, hospitals, and even schools.
A community that can accommodate all their needs
As people continue to work from home, there is a growing demand for emerging neighborhoods that offer a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere while maintaining conveniences at an arm’s reach. These make self-sustaining communities an attractive prospect for families and professionals looking to make their property investment.
Perhaps you’re planning a family soon, or you want to leave properties for your children. A property that uplifts one’s quality of life within a vibrant community is a worthwhile investment for you and your loved ones and helps secure their future. When deciding on your next property investment, choose premium-quality developments by reputable developers that offer great value for their properties, while providing comfort, security, and a lively neighborhood.
East Bay Residences offers a serene environment while keeping a diverse mix of retail establishments and services within reach. Its location along KM21 East Service Road in Sucat, Muntinlupa, allows families a respite from the metro’s busy nature without venturing far from its comforts. Its strategic location lets you enjoy city conveniences nearby, while its curated Retail Row offers a mix of businesses that cater to diverse and varied lifestyle choices.
Working from home may just very well be the future of the workplace. Hence, now is a good time to plan ahead and invest in a property that can accommodate your lifestyle now and in the future. Work at home does not have to impact your family life––so it’s time to invest in a space that allows you to balance work and play. With wide and open spaces, exclusive condo amenities, and lush outdoor areas, East Bay Residences in Sucat, Muntinlupa, gives you more room to breathe. A self-sustaining community surrounded by lush greenery, East Bay Residences is your new urban sanctuary.

What Convinced This Entrepreneur To Get A Condo During This Time
Is there really a right time to invest in your dream space? Here’s what businessman Christopher Castillo has to say.
Owning your own home or property is a dream most Filipinos have. But in these tough times, this dream takes a backseat. Many second guess spending their hard-earned money on most things, let alone big investments.
Investing, especially in your dream space — a place where you can put down roots or transform into a business opportunity — isn’t something to be afraid of.
According to Christopher Castillo, 32, an entrepreneur, real estate property manager, trader, and investor, investing in your dream space should remain a priority, particularly for young Filipino professionals.
There is no space for overthinking in investing
As an entrepreneur, Castillo is very familiar with taking calculated risks and planning for the future. He’s had his fair share of setbacks in his businesses, but he has always managed to learn from them.
Christopher Castillo says that when it comes to investing, “you have to be mentally and financially prepared.”
To Castillo, growth requires grit, or “mental toughness,” and this attitude also applies in investing.
“I personally think that some Filipinos are intimidated to invest because they tend to overthink. They question themselves with negative thought patterns like ‘What if it doesn’t work?’ or ‘What if I never achieve this goal?’ They generally focus more on what could go wrong, rather than what could go right,” he says.
“If you are willing to do what’s easy, life will be hard. But, if you are willing to do what’s hard, life will be easy,” he adds.
Having the ‘right mindset’ is crucial when making investments
Castillo believes that waiting is a common mistake most people make in terms of investing.
“It all comes down to having the right mindset,” he explains. “You just have to be mentally and financially prepared. As the saying goes, when it feels scary to jump, that’s exactly the time you jump. Otherwise, you’ll end up staying in the same place your whole life.”
Castillo also believes that putting your money in real estate, such as a condominium development, right now is a smart move.
He says: “Just like in the stock market, when prices are low, you grab the opportunity to buy. In real estate, the value appreciates every year, that’s why I didn’t hesitate [to invest in a condo last year]. The price was a bargain for me. It’s like buying on a discounted rate, which was a good deal.”
Setbacks shouldn’t stop you from investing in your dream space
Like many Filipinos, Castilo was not spared from the pandemic’s impact. At its height, he felt devastated when he had to shut down three of his food businesses. He took some time to reflect and think of ways to recuperate his losses. And that’s when he noticed that the pandemic did not have a huge impact on the real estate industry.
When he found out about The Larsen Tower, the latest development at the 7.2-hectare vibrant community of East Bay Residences, a project of Primaries, A Rockwell Company, Castillo grabbed the opportunity to invest in his dream space.

“I’m the kind of person who always plans ahead. I took the chance to purchase the unit because you can never go wrong with a real estate investment. This asset will continue to grow over time even in a recession or other market conditions,” he explains
For Castillo, a unit at the 20-story The Larsen Tower is a versatile investment. He plans to use his condo unit first as a start-up home with his future wife, then as a business opportunity that will create passive income when they start a family.
As a future home, Castillo likes that The Larsen Tower is at a strategic location. The condo is situated in East Service Road, Sucat, Muntinlupa, just minutes away from Alabang. It is near retail and entertainment hubs and service centers, including East Bay Residences’ own
East Bay Retail Row.
What attracted Castillo, too, are the well-thought-out amenities The Larsen Tower will offer. There are lap and kiddie pools, a fitness gym, functions areas, jogging paths, wide-open spaces, and an abundance of nature.
East Bay Residences features first-class amenities, including outdoor pools.
And with the variety of unit types The Larsen Tower has to offer — from one-bedroom units to two-bedroom homes to even three-bedroom residences — it really is the ideal home for independent living, couples, and growing families.
Investing in a condo requires a developer you can trust
When investing in a condo unit, you must consider these important factors when researching its developer: the company’s background, financial stability, workmanship quality, track record, and portfolio.
For Castillo, Primaries, A Rockwell Company ticked all of these boxes. So, when the chance to purchase a unit at The Larsen Tower made its way to Castillo, it was love at first sight.
East Bay Retail Row has a curated array of restaurants, retail stores, and service shops.
“The brand speaks for itself,” the entrepreneur shares. “I have always been a fan of Rockwell properties because of its astounding projects, but I didn’t get the chance to invest before because the prices were out of my reach.”
“When I visited East Bay Residences, … I just fell in love with the place,” he adds.
Things come and go. That’s why when investing in your dream space, it’s best to take advantage of an opportunity, especially if the means are already there. You might even want to check out The Larsen Tower as Castillo did!
Lastly, one final piece of advice from Castillo for those who are thinking of getting their own dream space but feel hesitant: “Think of the bigger picture. Don’t focus on fear, risks, and setbacks. Instead, focus on the opportunities, potential growth, and rewards.”

Accentuating Spaces with Minimalist Design
Open, uncluttered, and expressed in its simplest, most essential form, minimalist design promises beauty that is both deliberate and purposive without much ornament. Its practical approach creates a warm and inviting space, its aesthetic relaxes and soothes the mind, both of which make for a home design that will never go out of style.
So, how do you adopt this design for your space?
Introduction to Minimalism
Minimalism is an approach that centers around expressing only the most essential features of a product or subject, doing away with any excess or unnecessary elements. It’s considering the true nature or purpose of a space, and bringing that to the forefront of the design.
The approach was born out of the modern design movement, and while heavily associated with modern and contemporary interiors, minimalism can easily branch out and be applied to spaces that are more classic or traditional in design. What’s important is that the space feels clean and open with the right balance of accessories and colors.
Keeping your space simple and uncluttered opens it up to more light, gives the now unobstructed views a more prominent role in the space, and allows the architectural features of the home to really shine.
Benefits of the Minimalist Design
Minimalist design sets the stage for better quality living, as it enables those living in the space to focus on what’s important. And while great for the soul, the approach also goes hand in hand with functionality, which gives birth to more practical benefits.
Minimalism is great for making small spaces appear larger. A clean and orderly space with only essential furniture does wonders in opening it up. Getting rid of unnecessary knick-knacks, trinkets, and fluff creates more floor space, volume, and unobstructed views outside the unit. And with a simple mirror, you can take your added space and practically double it.
The philosophy of the approach is “less is more”, so with that comes less spending. Being purposeful with your choices for a certain space will save you on decorations and additional furniture.
Minimalist practices focus on practicality and functionality, and will save you time and effort of completely revamping your home later on. This is a design you can really settle with.
That said, minimalism does leave room for creativity and for those living in the space to be flexible with their decor and layout choices. Because it retains a neutral, subtle, and simple aesthetic, selecting minimalist home design pieces to add on or replace old ones with, becomes much easier compared to other styles that may be trickier to mix and match with. The open space also allows for easier reconfiguration of furniture.
While minimalism is mostly used for smaller spaces, the design approach is ideal for larger spaces like units at The Vantage at Kapitolyo. With expansive units, practical and purposive design, and inspiring views of the nearby central business district to add life, units at The Vantage allow residents to truly maximize all the benefits of a minimalist design.
Minimalism Through Decluttering
A great way to start incorporating minimalism into your home is by decluttering. This practice is simple, easy, and has immediate and positive effects on how a space feels.
First, you’ll have to identify which items are actually essential.
Once you’ve shortlisted your extra accessories, find a proper place in which they can be put away. Invest in simple storage solutions like tables and ottomans with storage. If need be, invest in cabinetry. The key takeaway is to have designated places for all your loose things to be out of sight.
Finally, create a habit of routinely checking rooms and common areas to ensure that no unnecessary items start piling up on your tabletops, couches, or any surface. And just for good measure, make it a point to throw away what you would consider trash immediately (envelopes of bills, packaging, etc.)
Another aspect of decluttering is reconfiguring furniture or doing away with barriers, so you can maximize the space. Literal dividers or consoles placed in the center of a room can reduce its length drastically.
While minimalist design can be applied to any layout, open floor plans are ideal. Many of the units at The Vantage at Kapitolyo, for instance, are open and spacious, giving residents the flexibility to add, reduce, and reconfigure furniture to explore their minimalism options.
Right Materials and Colors for Minimalist Look
Colors and textures you utilize in a space can greatly affect your mood. Blues can calm, while warmer and more vibrant tones like red and yellow can induce warmth, but also hostility.
When considering your color palette for a minimalist look, remember that “less is more”. Neutral or lighter colors are good for capturing the minimalist aesthetic, as these don’t lean too much in any direction. Think whites, blacks, creams, and greys.
Textures add warmth, depth, and richness to your space. Even within the same family of colors, throw pillows, knit blankets, and rugs can create contrast in a neutral space. Your core range of color hues will set the tone, while your furs, hides, and textured textiles create interest.
A good tip when filling a space with minimalist furnishings is to ask yourself if the space is overly stimulating. Once you’ve decided that your space is functional and aesthetically pleasing without being heavy-handed, do you really need to continue?
All in all, the minimalist design is a great way to bring about beauty from simplicity. Start anew and create the minimalist condo unit of your dreams at The Vantage at Kapitolyo, Pasig City. Inquire today!
East Bay Residences holds concrete pouring ceremony for Larsen Tower
Rockwell Land’s Primaries recently held the first concrete pouring of The Larsen Tower at East Bay Residences in Sucat, Muntinlupa City.
Gracing the event were Rockwell Land assistant vice presidents Rachel Quinto and Jeff Caronan, and partners at Phenix Garuda Construction and Development Corp.: project manager Vaughan Estella, construction managers Eric Coronel and Julius Roldan, and cost lead Marichelle Rivera.

The ceremony prompted the start of the tower’s construction. Launched in October 2020, the Larsen Tower is Rockwell’s second residential tower in East Bay Residences.
The 20-story tower is home to spacious one- to three-bedroom units in a diverse set of cuts ranging from 35 to 107 square meters. Exclusive to The Larsen Tower is the Sun Lounge, a dedicated area where residents can welcome guests or find respite in. This leads to the property’s expansive central amenity area, with a function room, fitness gym, jogging path, and swimming pools. The East Bay Retail Row also offers convenience with its commercial offerings.
The Larsen Tower at East Bay Residences is set for turnover in 2025. It’s a welcome addition to the Rockwell community in Sucat, and caters to the needs of both end-users and property investors.
Here, there truly are more opportunities for one to own their dream space.
The Larsen Tower: Spaces built to last
Spending our days at home these past months has made us realize how important it is to find the right place to live in that meets all your needs as a resident.
Gone are the days when home is just a place to rest and re-energize before you face your daily lives outside of your abode.
Now is the time to choose a home that will accommodate all your needs whether amid this pandemic and even way beyond when it’s over.
While location has been the top consideration in choosing a place to live in under the old normal, the pandemic has made us realize how important it is to also find residential spaces that offer you comfort as well as the flexibility to accommodate your work from home requirements.
Those needs are something that East Bay Residences, a property developed by Primaries, A Rockwell Company can address in its 7.2 hectare residential community in Sucat, Muntinlupa.
The Larsen Tower is the latest residential tower at the East Bay Residences, a residential community that offers 60 percent open spaces, giving residents easy access to an abundance of nature. It follows the 15-storey The Fordham Tower, the community’s first residential tower in East Bay Residences.
With its low-density floors, housing just 20 units per floor, residents are given a feel of exclusivity from the moment they step out of their doors.
STRATEGIC LOCATION
Location will always be an important consideration in choosing a place to live in.
With its strategic location near two main roads as well as key landmarks in Muntinlupa, residents of The Larsen Tower stand to gain from the strategic location of the project. The tower is accessible to business centers and city essentials.
East Bay Residences is only six kilometers (kms) away from Alabang and 11 kms away from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. It is also in close proximity to a number of expressways such as the South Luzon Expressway, Skyway, Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway (MCX), and Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX) as well as prominent roads such as the Alabang-Zapote Road and Sucat Road.
The project is also a 14 km distance from business districts in Makati and Taguig, and is just 16 kms away from the Entertainment City in Pasay City.
The residential community is accessible for a quick getaway further south to Laguna, which is 40 kms away, as well as the areas of Cavite and Batangas.
SPACIOUS UNITS
Staying true to the project’s low-density features, residents are also provided with more room to breathe as well as the comfort to move around in their own units as The Larsen Tower offers spacious units.
This is exemplified by the wider cut units with a one-bedroom unit sized at 35 square meters (sqm) being the smallest unit it has to offer. The one-bedroom unit offers enough space for a young entrepreneur or could also serve as a viable investment for a budding professional.
The Larsen Tower also offers two-bedroom units sized at 57 sqm, just the right size for a future home for starting families to invest in. In addition, it also features two-bedroom prime units measuring 65 sqm, perfect to cater to every family member’s needs.
Units of the project can go as big as 107 sqm for a three-bedroom unit, which is ideal for a growing family to make room to create more memories.
With its variety of unit type offerings, The Larsen Tower can address the needs of both residential end-users and investors.
A VARIETY OF AMENITIES
While residents may already have enough rooms within their units to pursue some of their hobbies and interests, staying indoors makes us crave for fresh air and a change of scenery.
Fortunately, residents of The Larsen Tower will not need to look far for leisurely activities as almost a hectare of amenities is within their reach.
There’s no need to head out to an out of town resort for a quick swim as the Central Amenity area features both a lap pool and a kiddie pool, ensuring that every member of the family has something to enjoy. Health enthusiasts will also be treated to a fitness gym as well as a jogging path to suit their daily workout needs. The community’s wide open spaces also provides an ideal respite with easy access to nature.
In addition, The Larsen Tower has its own Sun Lounge where one can savor the fresh air and a view of the Central Amenity area, which features a function room for events.
RETAIL CONVENIENCE
These times have made us realize more than ever the importance of having your needs within your reach in the community you live in, as we tend to limit the time we spend outside of our homes. But pandemic or not, having all the necessary establishments nearby will save residents their time and energy.
The Larsen Tower brings convenience to the next level with the wide-array of retail options at the East Bay Retail Row, which features a selection of service shops and restaurants. Among these include Starbucks Coffee, The Marketplace, BDO, Suds Go, Pan De Manila, RoyceTea, and Prim & Pretty.

Reasons to Invest in your First Home in Muntinlupa
With most of its population seeking work and opportunities, Metro Manila has become one of the busiest areas around the region. With the growing density of people and traffic congestion, it’s important to choose a location where you can thrive.
Situated in the breezy, laid-back Muntinlupa, East Bay Residences is an ideal place for anyone who’s looking to claim their first urban home that’s close to the heart of the industrial landscape of Metro Manila.
Proximity and Accessibility
When considering a home, one important factor to consider is proximity to work. Muntinlupa connects to multiple cities in Metro Manila with various routes and highways. With many available options for transportation, the means of getting to your desired destination won’t be too difficult.
Residents of Muntinlupa can choose either the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX), C5 and C6 Roads, and the Skyway to ease their commute to busy cities like Makati and Taguig. A quick trip to Cavite is possible via Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway (MCX). Residents bound to Pasay can also go through SLEX or Skyway.
Going to the airport from Muntinlupa won’t be a problem because the road and routes are well-paved, making them convenient for any resident from the city to arrive on time for their flight. Residents can also have transportation choices from bus to vehicles through car-booking apps or cabs.
Living in Convenience
Muntinlupa is a good choice for your residence and an ideal location for a lucrative property investment. While the proximity to important places can already provide residents with convenience in traveling from their homes to their workplaces and other locations, residents can also avail of amenities within the community for leisure and recreation.
Residents and property owners at East Bay Residences can make use of their fitness gym and jogging path for exercise and other wellness activities. There is a swimming pool for refreshing relaxation, with gazebos as a place for bonding moments with friends and family. These are just some of the amenities available for the residents to use and enjoy while living in East Bay Residences.
While amenities can greatly benefit the residents, they can also take advantage of the places surrounding the condominium community. Nearby shopping malls are lined with designer shops and other retail stores. Just a little over the east lies several restaurant communities where you could get a taste of what the relaxed metro life is like. There are several hospitals within close proximity of Muntinlupa which guarantee you and your family a safe and accessible place to go in case of unexpected situations.
A Booming Business District
From being a farming district, Alabang has since grown into a progressive business district. Attracting several foreign and local businesses to set up offices in the locality, Muntinlupa has allowed for the growth of a business district that can compete with its neighboring cities in the metro. As economic development becomes a factor for businesses to grow, investing a home in Muntinlupa means a potential access to employment and entrepreneurial opportunities. This can potentially and positively affect your property’s value in the long-term.
A Progressive Green City
As an ideal city for investment, Muntinlupa has been recognized for its local efforts to combat environmental degradation. In spite of being an urban city, Muntinlupa has managed to curb its carbon footprint by implementing measures such as choosing electric public utility vehicles over conventional ones and building green algae farms for research. Long term positive effects will lead to sustainable investment.
Legislatively, Muntinlupa has taken it upon itself to enforce more green policies not only to reduce its carbon footprint, but also to save the oceans. Muntinlupa was one of the first cities in the country to ban styrofoams and implement strict rules in single use plastic. These laws enforced by the local government encourage its residents to live a greener lifestyle.
The environment is a factor for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Although cities always aim for progress and innovation, doing so without compromising the quality of the environment will create a safer and healthier community. In Muntinlupa, you won’t have to worry about the damaging effects of pollution with the various environmental-friendly initiatives done by the local government and the community.
To sum it all up, when choosing a location where you’ll be staying for a sizeable amount of time, it all boils down to four things: its proximity to work and opportunities, its ability to bring you convenience, its ability to attract more businesses, and that it’s future-proofing itself by being a progressive and clean city.

Property Finder Tips on Finding the Ideal Home in Muntinlupa
Given the multitude of choices across the country, buying a new property can both be exciting and overwhelming. However, when you finally discover what fits your lifestyle, it’s going to be a rewarding experience. With the advent of technology, tools and domains like a property finder can help you choose the ideal home. Here are some tips you can consider in choosing the right home for you.
Consider Convenience and Accessibility
Think about your work location as a factor in choosing your dwelling. Having a place close to your office allows you to reduce travel time significantly, giving you more free time for yourself and your family.
Given the hustle and bustle of the city, you might want to settle in a city near its borders. Luckily, Muntinlupa is just a few kilometers away from central business districts in the metro.
Muntinlupa conveniently connects with multiple cities in Metro Manila through several roads. You can use the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX), C5 Road, or the Skyway to reach major hubs in Taguig and Makati.
East Bay Residences, for instance, is located near the Skyway, making it a prime choice for young professionals seeking to avoid the traffic of Metro Manila.
Residents headed for Pasay and further into EDSA can go through NAIAX or SLEX. If they need to go further South, all they need to do is take the Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway and CALAX, they’re well on their way.
Find a Place That Accommodates Your Day-to-Day
Life can be a lot more convenient if your location has easy access to places of interest like shopping malls, grocery stores, and curated service shops. You’ll find yourself navigating your days with ease and delight since these places are a stone’s throw away from your home. East Bay Residences provides residents easy access to these leisures. With a retail row located within the condominium community, residents can purchase their essentials from groceries, service shops, or buy savory meals at food stops.
Consider Spaces and Amenities for Taking a Breather

Tips on Maximizing your Condominium Floor Plan
Your home provides you with the comfort you need, so it’s best to make the most of its space. Today, being comfortable goes beyond just plush beddings and a good air conditioning system. If you’re a property owner, maximizing your condominium floor plan is another way to make good use of your unit.
Having your home reflect your personal style and individuality also applies. If you’re an owner of a condo unit, you can turn your space into a conducive and relaxing environment where you can unwind after a hard day’s work.
One of the perks of being a condominium unit owner is the opportunity to customize your space based on personal style. Space, in particular, is a very important factor when you design your condo. For instance, having a spacious layout that serves as a canvas for your sleek yet homey furniture pieces is great for accentuating your condo with your personality. However, there are still a couple of things to consider.
Whenever you make adjustments to your condo floor plan, you need to consider foot traffic, overall look, and a slew of other considerations to elevate your condominium experience. Below are tips that can potentially help you out.
Plan Traffic Paths
Considering the path you take from one spot to another in your condo unit is important when maximizing your floor plan. First, it’s best to understand traffic pathways and their location in your home. Traffic pathways are the routes that you have to pass through to get from one room or one space to the next.
Whether you need to get to your kitchen from your bedroom or from your living room to your dining area, any roadblock is an inconvenience. Make sure to get any furniture out of the way.
The best way to give proper spacing for your traffic pathways is to come up with a condo floor plan. This is accessible from your developer. With this copy, you can identify which of the spots would be perfect for your furniture and several other things you put inside.
Establishing traffic pathways is also important when it comes to avoiding accidents and injuries in your unit. With this in mind, you can proceed with maximizing your condominium floor plan.
Creating Space and Going Vertical
One major aspect of creating a comfortable home is making it look spacious. Having too many things in your home can contribute to clutter which, in turn, may contribute to increasing stress levels. Unless it positively contributes to your comfort and preference, remove anything that may take up more space than necessary. In Mari Kondo’s words, if it does not spark joy, get rid of it.
You can free up more space in your condo unit by getting rid of unnecessary items and things you no longer use. A good practice in maximizing your current layout is to keep furniture that serves one purpose and adds style.
For items that hold more sentimental value that feel more difficult to let go of, such as medals, trophies, favorite books, place them in rectangular plastic boxes that you can easily store inside cabinets or cupboards. Have shelves installed with wide spaces in between to store and display achievements and any other similar items. Alternatively, you can use the blank wall space to display these mementos.
Lastly, make sure to put a small gap between furniture and walls. This does not only create an illusion of space, it also allows you to easily reach areas whenever you’re cleaning.
Have a Purpose for Each Room
Each room serves its purpose. A kitchen is where meals are prepared, and a dining area is where you enjoy these meals. When it comes to maximizing your condominium floor plan, it is important to be familiar with each room’s purpose. What matters is that you, as a homeowner, get to decide the intention for each room.
An example would be having an area where you can work even within your own home. You might have some trouble focusing with the task at hand if your bed is just a few meters away beckoning you to take a break. This might seem “practical”, but it can actually be counterproductive.
A foolproof solution would be to have a work station set in another room that’s well-lit and has the necessary equipment for you to optimally work on tasks. Your bedroom can also have good lighting but should not have any article of work.
At the end of the day, a home has different rooms because each room has a different purpose. So establish a purpose for each room and optimize them for their respective functions.
Lastly, you have to make sure that your condo floor plans are ready for optimization.
