Living sustainably becomes attainable with Avida Land
(First of a series)
Homeowners can live guilt-free and sleep better at night knowing their homes actively contribute to the health of our planet and prioritize the well-being of their family.
This growing consciousness is reshaping how people choose where to live. Sustainability, after all, is no longer just a trend—it has become a key factor in property decisions, especially in a country that regularly faces climate-related risks.
Today’s homebuyers and investors are actively seeking communities that align with their values—places that support a greener lifestyle, reflect long-term responsibility, and offer resilience for future generations.
Avida Land understands this shift. Sustainability is embedded in its vision of bespoke living, allowing residents to pursue their advocacy for the environment without compromising comfort or convenience.
Its portfolio of modern contemporary developments is designed with sustainable features, while its parent company, Ayala Land Inc., is committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by 2050—assuring homeowners that every investment supports a more responsible future.
Embracing sustainability with ‘ClimAdapt’
Avida Land embraces sustainability in its condominium developments through various initiatives, including ClimAdapt. This is a suite of features that ensures each residential tower it establishes is climate-resilient and Earth-friendly.
Firstly, Avida Land is big on water efficiency, intentionally including rainwater harvesting in its developments. Rainwater is collected and stored for non-potable uses such as irrigation for green spaces. The same system also prevents flooding within the community.
Common areas are equipped with motion-sensor lighting while preserving the ambience of the spaces. Avida condos feature sensor-controlled lights in hallways and podium parking. These lighting fixtures activate only when they detect movement within a space or when the space registers low-light conditions.
Buildings benefit greatly from proper insulation. In tropical countries, effective insulation helps maintain cool indoor spaces even during the hottest days. Avida Land responds with low solar heat gain glass windows. These reduce the amount of heat entering one’s residence, even when sunlight directly enters.
Practical benefits and savings
One would be remiss to consider ClimAdapt simply as an advocacy, for it also offers practical benefits, such as savings, peace of mind and well-being.
Rainwater harvesting system lowers utility costs for condos and promote self-reliance, reducing the volume of water a condominium community would source from the local water district.
Sensors optimize energy efficiency across any Avida property and, in limiting the operating hours for bulbs, extend their lifespan. Good insulation also means less use of airconditioning units, which can impact the electricity bill.
Furthermore, a comfortable temperature leads to greater comfort, and increased productivity for those working from home. Motion sensor lights ensure efficient use of electricity and in turn reduce management costs for common areas (lowers association dues). A well-designed rainwater harvesting system enhances environmental resilience by managing stormwater and mitigating flood risks.
At the same time, ClimAdapt boosts property values. It is more appealing to eco-conscious and practical buyers and investors which, let’s face it, is most of us.
Embracing sustainability, Avida creates communities that make us feel safe and secure not only about our investment but about our own lifestyles.
