Serene. Simple. Sublime. These are three powerful words that best describe the Tokyo Mansions, which South Forbes Golf City launched recently.
The overall architectural design of the Tokyo Mansions, the modern Zen interiors, and the Asian landscaping combine to create a serene atmosphere unlike any other. Simple, straight lines for the walls, windows, and roofs are featured all over the home. Bamboos in straight lines perfectly accent what could be the most sublime spot in every Tokyo Mansion: its own infinity pool.
The two biggest Tokyo Mansions model units, Meiji and Yamato, are a study in contrast. Meiji, which will be built at a corner lot facing the Tokyo Mansions clubhouse, features an inverted L-shaped house.
Its strikingly beautiful design can be readily observed from the outside, and guests will notice immediately the infinity pool at the lot's corner.
Japanese shingles were used for the roofing. These dark, simple roof tiles contrast strongly against the white walls. On the rear side of the roof, wooden rafters further give the Meiji Mansion a distinct Japanese character. Just across the living room, linear bamboo plants give a rural effect to the Meiji Mansion.
The Yamato, however, is strikingly subdued from the entrance. A gracefully curved roof and a blank white wall welcome guests.
But once the door opens, the impact of the design becomes eminent. The curved roof of the living room reaches to 20 feet, and a clerestory window at its highest point gives residents a clear view of the blue sky and offers the house an interesting interplay of light and shadows from sunrise to sunset, and of course a view of the night sky and its amazing array of stars.
The layout of the Yamato Mansion was designed to conform to the sloping terrain of the land. The trapezoidal lot allows easy separation of four functional areas of the Yamato: living room up front, service quarters on the right, the lanai and infinity pool at the middle, and the private quarters to the left. This also creates a distinct sense of space in the 525-square-meter Mansion.
The black-tiled infinity pool and Zen rock garden give a commanding view of the river and a virgin forest on the horizon. The black tiles offer a modern take on the pool's decorative effect, and depending on the sunlight, these give varying reflections from dark green to midnight blue � for a more sophisticated feel.
Be it the Meiji or Yamato, the design of the Tokyo Mansions is suited for sophisticated homebuyers who desire the ultimate, tranquil everyday refuge. As a bonus, they also get the chance to test their golfing skills everyday. A free golf membership to the world-class, 18-hole South Forbes Golf Club comes with every lot purchase at Tokyo Mansions. South Forbes was designed by no other than Asia's leading golf course designer: the International Management Group (IMG).
In addition, South Forbes' affiliation with the exclusive golf club of IMG SportsClub entitles Tokyo Mansions residents to worldwide perks: preferred access and discounted rates in 42 world-class golf courses worldwide. These include the Nirwana Bali Golf Club in the tropical paradise of Bali, the Moonah Links in Melbourne, and San Francisco's prestigious Presidio Golf Course, among many others.

Down South, the country's first Zen-themed community of Tokyo Mansions is fast taking shape at South Forbes Golf City. Residences at Tokyo Mansions feature sleek lines, white walls, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and Modern Zen interiors and landscaping for a truly relaxing atmosphere.
Just as the personal experience of these New Age Asian-inspired Mansions is ethereal, the Tokyo Mansions Clubhouse offers an extraordinary and otherworldly respite. You drive through a rotunda with a ripple effect as a design for its paved blocks. Beyond the driveway, two blank white walls with reflecting pools, two straight lines of bamboo landscaping, plus a view of two dark Japanese roofs, make you curious about what could be beyond the stark walls.
But once you enter, the impact of the design delights your senses. Two separate structures connected by a vast open space welcome you. On the right is a social hall with floor-to-ceiling glass windows and wood frames. Sliding doors keep functions and meetings private and can be opened to make the area bigger in size, to 300 square meters. At left is a similar structure, but it houses this time the sales office and a game room. Al fresco dining areas fill the far end of both structures, which give diners the best views in this facility.
This view is no other than that of a three-level infinity pool. A reflecting pool cascades its waters to another pool, which then feeds a 25-meter long infinity pool.
The infinity pool also has two swimming pools on its sides ideal for kids. Taken together, this 50-meter long pool structure gives swimmers a joyful experience. Take some time off, relax by the pool deck, and commune with nature as you view a virgin forest on the horizon.

Other features inspired by Zen will surely captivate your senses. Walk down the stairs to access the rock garden at the back of the cascading falls. Go up the viewing deck to have a commanding view of this rising city and the virgin forest. Check out the linear bamboo landscaping to see and hear the wind in action.
With all of these features, the Tokyo Mansions Clubhouse suits the desire of sophisticated city dwellers for a tranquil structure that complements their serene homes.
The Tokyo Mansions Clubhouse is an exclusive amenity for residents of Tokyo Mansions and their guests. Aside from this, residents get a free golf membership to the world-class, 18-hole South Forbes Golf Club designed by Asia's leading golf course designer: the International Management Group (IMG).
South Forbes' affiliation with the exclusive golf club of IMG SportsClub will surely excite Tokyo Mansions residents. Imagine getting preferred access and discounted rates in 42 world-class golf courses worldwide. Score an eagle at The Fox Valley Club in New York. Better yet, go for a hole-in-one at San Francisco's prestigious Presidio Golf Course.





The Edo mansion features three bedrooms and a den.





The Heisei features three bedrooms, a den, and a spacious attic.

A serene, Modern Zen sanctuary is fast rising. While it's definitely close to the metropolis, it's not too near that the deafening noise, the hustle and bustle of Metro Manila can still be felt. The driving distance to this neighborhood is just right, and this preserves the site's distinct, tranquil atmosphere. The country's first Modern Zen themed community will soon rise in a place that maintains the feel of the suburbs yet offers a city-like lifestyle.
Aptly named Tokyo Mansions after the highly cosmopolitan capital of the Land of the Rising Sun, this premier neighborhood is now taking shape at South Forbes Golf City in Metro Sta. Rosa. It will feature two Zen sanctuaries that will give sophisticated individuals and families a first look at the serene lifestyle.
Meiji will rise at a corner lot facing the Tokyo Mansions clubhouse. This inverted L-shaped mansion features a strikingly simple yet elegant design from the outside. Shingles and wooden rafters give it a Zen character, while tall bamboos line up across the living room to lend the mansion a rural effect.
The Yamato, however, is strikingly subdued. As you drive to it, a gracefully curved roof and a blank white wall make you curious about what could be inside. Your curiosity will be rewarded once you open the door, however. A curved roof at the living room rises to 20 feet, and a clerestory window allows an unobscured view of the heavens night or day.
This mansion's layout gives the residents a sense of having their own private space, whatever the activity.
The service quarters are to the right of the living room, while the bedrooms are to he left. At the center are a lanai and an infinity pool, both of which are good vantage points to observe a creek and a virgin forest on the horizon. A rock garden beside the pool is another perfect place for some form of meditation.

The interiors of Meiji and Yamato offer a fresh take on the trendsetting atmosphere of Tokyo in this part of the world as creatively rendered by top Interior designers Ivy and Cynthia Almario. A Minotti style white sofa at Meiji contrasts against the white walls and dark wood frames of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The master's bedroom prominently displays a suspended plasma TV that doubles as a divider. Calming the mind after a hard day's work will be easy at the master's bath, which features an ultra luxurious Jacuzzi.

The living room of the Yamato features croissant sofas inspired by the collection of Filipino designer Kenneth Cobonpue. The master's bedroom's showcase pieces are the Zen bed and the oversized lamps that double as accent pieces for the headboard. Drapes adorn the floor-to-ceiling glass walls and give the couple a sense of privacy.
As a hallmark of this Zen community, the Tokyo Mansions Clubhouse elevates the meaning of tranquility. A three-level infinity pool offers residents and their guests a chance to relax, while away the time, and let nature envelop their minds. Hear the wind in action as the branches of the forest's trees rustle. Listen as birds sing to their hearts' delight. Climb the four-storey view deck and have a clearer picture not just of this rising city but of your life.
Once you choose Tokyo Mansions as your prime address, you get one big bonus that will balance your work and life. Get your free membership to the world-class, 18-hole South Forbes Golf Club for every lot purchase at Tokyo Mansions. This free membership will also be your family's passport to golf, tennis, and other leisure activities worldwide through the exclusive golf club of IMG SportsClub. The South Forbes Golf Club was designed by no other than Asia's leading golf course designer, the International Management Group (IMG).
