Alsons Dev’s newest township in Alabel, Sarangani is set to be built on passion and expertise.

A lot of people might be familiar with the Makati Central Business District. With its seamless harmony between pedestrians and vehicles, it is one of the best examples of a carefully-crafted urban space in the Philippines. But did you know its re-designed people-friendly streets are the handiwork of landscape architect and urban planner Paulo Alcazaren and his multidisciplinary design firm, PGAA Creative Design? This is the same team whom Alsons Development and Investment Corporation (Alsons Dev) forged a partnership with for its master-planned township, in Alabel, Sarangani, Avia Estate.

The Experts Behind Avia Estate

Arch.
