Brittany brings the high life

Avant At The Fort
The newest jewel in the Brittany crown, Avant, is credited with launching
green architecture on the local vertical
development front. Thoughts of rolling greens carpeting the structure’s
landscape may crop up at the mere mention of green architecture, but De Guzman
quickly pointed out that there is more to the concept than just plant life.
“Our concept of green architecture begins with the choice location,” she said.
“Avant takes advantage of surrounding shade, protecting the condos from both
morning and afternoon sun. Condo living at times dictates high costs of
electricity, but since we advocate this concept, we ensured better ventilation
in our units.”
Thus, Avant boasts optimum ventilation on opposite ends of the corridor — a
rarity among condos in the country. Plus, the elevators do not use
air-conditioners. Just pure, natural, free-flowing air. The garden on the 31st
floor is open to all unit owners, not just penthouse occupants.
Green architecture continues with the elements of the structure. The glass
windows are heat-reflective. Tall and wide picture windows let in more ambient
light for greater energy conservation. “Again, you do not have to turn on the
lights all the time,” she piped in. “It also helps that these amenities are
designed around its location, considered the last remaining prime spot in the
area, the Crescent Park West.”
Of course, Avant has also taken into consideration not just the prestige of the
location, but also its functionality. As a prime spot, it made its corners more
useful by turning in a high-ceiling lobby, a lobby lounge, the free-form pool
with sundeck, a fully equipped gym, and three levels of basement parking spaces.
