My sustainable lifestyle @ Elements Residences
Food, clothing and shelter. These are known as human’s basic needs. Everyone needs a roof above one’s head and a place to park tired and weary bodies after a day’s work.
Recently, due to issues of over-population and inadequate land space in the metropolis, more real estate developers and even homeowners have embraced condominium living.
Today’s condominiums come in various types and sizes — from multi-storey high rise buildings to mid-rise or mid-level apartment or flat types and from 21 square meters studio units to large 3 bedroom units.
Condominium living has evolved from luxury to necessity and apart from location and price, it must likewise embody comfort and convenience. With the needs of investors and homeowners in mind, GFL Metro Communities Inc., (GFLMC) has raised the bar in terms of architectural standard with Elements Eco-efficient Residences.
