Smart homes at Twin Oaks Place

MANILA, Philippines - Home automation, remote viewing and security controls, lightning-fast data downloads and  real time live streaming of in-the-demand TV specials — these possibilities of the 21st century digital living are no longer the stuff of fantasy but a practical and useful reality that residents at Twin Oaks Place experience..

Greenfield Development Corporationhas created genuine “smart” homes for Filipino families. Units in the first of its two towers have been turned over last year, and construction of the second tower is already in full swing.

“Twin Oaks Place is the ultimate achievement of our commitment to innovation that will benefit generations,” said general manager lawyer Duane A.X. Santos. Twin Oaks is located at the heart of the developer’s emerging masterplanned Greenfield District in Mandaluyong City.

“We are now able to provide the best of urban living to our valued unit owners, at a time when the most exciting possibilities in digital connectivity are making many aspects of city living more efficient, convenient and enjoyable,” he added. “Harnessing the benefits of digital technology is no longer a fantasy but a reality, and will soon be the norm rather than the exception.”

The digital experience begins with an Internet Protocol (IP) phone that is standard in each unit. These devices allow residents to view and confirm the identity of visitors in the lobby via the IP phone screen. Eventually, as more and more innovative services and applications are made available in the country, one can enjoy conveniences such as shopping or ordering food delivery through interactive menus on the IP phone screen.

The main entrance door of each unit is also fitted with electronic locks, which is programmed and operated with pushbutton numerical combinations—spelling utmost convenience, enhanced security and peace of mind for residents.

The core of Twin Oaks Place’s future-ready environment is the provision of an FTTH technology which can support and deliver quadplay services built-in within each unit.

With the use of corresponding smartphone applications and home automation equipment, a resident can even operate appliances, gadgets and mechanisms inside the unit without even being physically present. Lighting fixtures can be programmed to conserve energy; airconditioning can be turned on prior to entering the unit for added comfort; and the entrance door can even be remotely unlocked to allow entry of authorized guests. Internet cameras can also be installed for real-time monitoring of the unit.
