Sea Creatures

CEBU, Philippines - From a resort hub to a residential bailiwick, the transformation brings you closer to the heart of Mother Nature, writes Yasunari Ramon Suarez Taguchi. Do you like to breathe fresh air with sand on your feet?

Set within the 11-hectare expanse of what was formerly known as the Tambuli Beach Club, Tambuli Seaside Living - the pilot development project of Tytans Properties and Development Inc - takes a profound approach in maintaining nature's natural beauty and wonders, giving due emphasis on preserving the area's existing range of trees, flora, and fauna.

Anchoring his master plan of lush foliage and water as the backdrop of the development's tropical modern design, architect Alex Medalla of Arkinamix - one of Cebu's premier modernist architectural design firms - took the time to develop a design that's intent on preserving the area's large banyan and acacia trees, incorporating them in the project's overall layout.

Within his more-than-10-years' experience working on projects in Hong Kong, coupled with a dynamic design partnership for 15 years with partners Ryan Rasines and Janet Medalla through 'Arkinamix', the firm's keen attention to detail plays a pivotal role in bringing the ideal balance between modernist aesthetics and natures natural wonders to Tambuli.

As Hong Kong's residential developments are known to work with the maximum utilization of space norm, Medalla's experience has effectively sharpened his skills in the aspect of efficient space planning, matched by utilizing the area's natural assets, predominantly the topography and the natural growth of trees as a key design reference point.

Standing out as the first residential resort development in Cebu, Tambuli Seaside Living dedicates four hectares for its exclusive amenity areas and multipurpose spaces, with each of its six residential buildings set as mid-rise developments, calibrated not to be obtrusive of its location's natural breathtaking scenery.

As an active game changer in Cebu's ever-growing landscape of investment options and residential development projects, Tambuli Seaside Living's overall being heralds a promise, making paradise easily within one's reach.
