Model of Vista Residences
Vista Residences’ Vista Suarez Cebu is going to create a revolution in the way the country – Cebu in particular – experiences architecture. Beyond groundbreaking, this landmark-on-the-rise will pioneer building blueprinting by creating a tower that graces every unit with a view of one of the most entrancing cities in the Philippines. The steel marvel weaves two buildings together to seamlessly create what seems like a single tower in one grand display of architecture – much like a Cebuano craftsman’s handiwork.
Vista Residences is the condominium arm of Vista Land **– the country’s premier property developer. The group’s knack of finding the best locations in the country has become quite palpable in the Queen City of the South with the launch of its first condominium development in the Visayas. In Vista Suarez Cebu, Vista Residences is currently building what could become one of the city’s – and the country’s – finest vertical properties. It is designed to create the ideal human habitat by responding to nearly every aspect of human life – business, leisure, family, the need for growth, and of course, building and nurturing dreams. In this sense, “mixed use” goes beyond the customary “business, commercial, residential” scope.
The goal of the VRI vertical villages is to create cities in microcosm – and Vista Suarez Cebu will be the archetype of exactly that. Everything from its location to its amenities will be pulled together to lay out, within its 32 storeys, things every resident, occupant, or guest will need to live fully, completely enjoy their stay, or build their careers.
The mixed-use marvel will rise right on Gorordo Avenue, just off the Gorordo-Escario intersection, putting the vertical village right in the middle of the metro’s key hubs: Fuente Osmeña Circle, the Cebu Provincial Capitol, and a commercial and leisure center – making its location extremely accessible.
Blueprinted for both work and sanctuary, the uniquely “L-shaped,” and exquisitely designed Vista Suarez Cebu will offer a minimal 27 units per floor in Tower 1, and only 14 units per floor in Tower 2. This will allow for more privacy, much less crowding in the public areas, and more breathing space – a huge premium in condominium living.
At the street level, the elegant building will offer a mall-in-miniature, housing retail and commercial shops and restaurants for the residents’ and guests’ convenience and enjoyment. The next two stories will be given over to offices and business centers. A fascinating concept in maximizing a condominium’s capability, Vista Suarez will be both a hotel and a residential development. The fifth to the 28th floor will be run as a hotel or serviced residence. The rooms – offering both studio and one-bedroom selections – will be outfitted and run with the same professionalism, expertise, and customer care as are the world’s top hotels.
A Sophisticated Showroom to Show Off One of Tomorrow’s Finest Domains
To highlight the advantages and innovations – as well as the clear artistic leaning – of Vista Suarez Cebu, on June 29, 2016, the Vista Residences Showroom in Cebu will open its doors as a testament and a showcase of the Cebuanos’ brand of quality and artistry.
The showroom was created with an open-plan layout and very distinct areas that underscore the superb space planning evident in the configuration of each condo unit. The white interiors and door-lined walls allow the option of bringing the outdoors in. A very practical design feature, this offers the luxury of being able to reconfigure the space and at the same time allows for the flexibility to create multiple functions for the area.
The Vista Suarez Cebu Showroom will offer Sales and Marketing support to both sellers and buyers – all within a welcoming, bright, and cozy ambiance. It will be the venue for promoting and presenting Vista Suarez Cebu to clients via show flats, an interactive map presenting detailed information about the project, and a scale model.
The showroom will also feature interior design possibilities for the one-bedroom and studio units, capturing the potential of a flexible and functional space. The neutral interiors and calm color palette purposely create a minimalist yet sophisticated temperament.
Beyond the intelligent structure, Vista Residences took great care in understanding the Cebuanos’ eye for beauty, craftsmanship and functionality, keeping top-of-mind their innate preference for local talent. Hence, the company, partnered with young and dynamic Holly Dychangco, of Chrome Design Studio, to design the showroom’s interior. Holly, a proud Cebuana who studied and trained abroad, believes in bringing back her global learning to benefit her home city. Holly lends local flavor, creating a design atmosphere that understands and appeals entirely to the discerning taste of the Cebuano market.
Providing interior design planning solutions for the built interior environment, Chrome breeds a dynamic collaboration of creative minds to ensure design expression and function, and believes in building statements, trending ideas, and designing for life. The group taps into the highest creative forces in Cebu, with a synergistic collaboration among suppliers and industry players, introducing into the market a dynamic creative force while keeping affordability in mind.
The Vista Residences Showroom in Cebu is proof of the company's commitment to extending its reach to more CBDs outside of Metro Manila, with the intention that more Global Filipinos from all over the world will have the chance to experience the brand, anchored on the strength of delivering vertical villages developed with a local heart, designed with a global mind.
The spanking new, and entirely sophisticated showroom is an exhibition of what Vista Residences can do, further highlighted by a local Cebuana’s interpretation of the lifestyle it can offer. The showroom is collaboration, and in a sense, a work of art.

Art for Art
To further spotlight the artistic achievement that Vista Suarez Cebu will eventually become, the showroom opens with an art exhibit, featuring the works of acclaimed master painter and printmaker Charles Lahti of New York. Lahti has been a creative force within New York’s art community for more than three decades. He has worked with the likes of Donald Judd, Andy Warhol, and LeRoy Neiman. Lahti is known for work gilded with vivid colors and pieces molded by balanced color contrast juxtapositions. A dynamic and temporal flair can be discerned from many of his pieces, particularly in his printmaking – a quality that, more often than not, lends an expressionist tone to their being.
The Vista Residences Showroom is located at 116 Gorordo Avenue, Cebu City. For more information on Vista Suarez Cebu, call (+632) 650 0753 or (+63) 999 887 1705 or visit www.vistaresidences.com.ph.
