RENOWNED Cebu-based interior designer Hannah Lim lends her brand of design aesthetic to Almiya’s model units demonstrating an aspirational vibe that combines luxury and elegance with unexpected
practicality.
Almiya is the complete community in the north created by homegrown real property leader AboitizLand, Inc. It is a medium-density residential project in Canduman, Mandaue City.
Lim had previously designed units of AboitizLand’s Kishanta Zen Residences and The Persimmon. She holds a Bachelors of Interior Design from the University of the Philippines and a Masters degree in Real Estate Development from New York City’s Columbia University.
Lim heads HL Designs which continues to grow its client base from across a broad spectrum of project types, categories and sizes. Her firm recently completed designing the emerging community’s Vera and Amani units.
The Vera is a two-story single attached dwelling with three bedrooms, ample living and dining areas, lanai, garage and service area. Amani, on the other hand, is the two-story duplex unit with three bedrooms, two toilets-and-baths generous living and dining areas, garage and service area.
Lim notes that the Almiya units are a wonderful blend of good architecture with carefully planned interior spaces, a factor that ensures excellent outcomes in the interior design phase. “Because, almost always, the structure predetermines the flow and size of the interior spaces. Having a good structure allows the interior designer to enhance the properly-planned spaces,” Lim explains.
“Luxe” and “elegance” are the guiding principles behind the interior design of the Almiya model units. Through the smart addition of sparkle and shine, color and bespoke furniture, HL Designs effectively achieved the look that embodies these principles “without breaking the bank,” Lim said.
The Vera model unit has grey for its base neutral. The living/dining room has accents of bright yellow. In the kids’ room, one gets pleasant bursts of orange. The second bedroom features a playful mix of sky blue, lemon yellow and apple green while the master bedroom melds the grey of the living room with sparkles of bronze and magenta.
For the Amani, the designer chose beige as its base. The living room is accented with scarlet red inspired by the Japanese cherry blossoms. The kids’ room is painted a breezy powder blue with green and beige highlights. The master bedroom embraces the same luxe feel of the living room made richer with touches of brown and the sparkle of silver.
The Almiya model units are available for viewing at the project site from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Call AboitizLand through (032) 4111620 to schedule a site trip.
