Your home needs to breathe, too. 32 Sanson By Rockwell gives you some concepts on how to restyle your space this summer using nature’s hue.
WITH the ever-growing need for sustainability, going green really starts at home. This summer is the perfect time to redesign your home and create a greener, more sustainable space. Here are a few concepts from 32 Sanson that you can consider in doing so:
Bring the outdoors in
Potted plants are a great way to brighten up a room, especially those with buds or colored leaves. Opt for low-maintenance ones that don’t need much pruning or watering. 32 Sanson’s model unit has a large anthurium, one of the best air purifiers nature has to offer.
Find new functions for old things
Décor pieces and accessories do not have to be bought – most of these are expensive for such a small piece, and about 87 other people have the exact same one, for all we know. Instead, DIY your own decors and recycle things just lying around your house.
Be subtle
Sticking to a green color scheme does not mean green paint on your walls or green curtains and throw pillows and adding a green couch on top of that green carpet. Everything should be in moderation. Instead of overwhelming a room with too much green, opt for varying shades of the color, and choose pieces or corners in the room that you want to highlight with it.
Making a room green–be it health-wise or color-wise– does not mean bringing 100% of green things to the room. Remember: everything in moderation. Just like 32 Sanson, this exclusive garden community harmonizes the convenience of living in the city with the serenity of nature. It boasts of being 70% verdant greenery, bringing new meaning to urban development. Their disaster- proof buildings are able to withstand the toughest weather conditions and earthquakes, with provisions for three-day back-up water supply in case of emergency, as well as a generator.
32 Sanson by Rockwell is located at Sanson Road, Lahug. For more information, call (032) 417–3888, or e-mail inquire@rockwell.com.ph.
