Despite the traffic, the pollution and other deterring factors, most Filipinos still flock to big cities to work and study.

Thus, accessible accommodation in city centers has become a major concern for urban professionals and students alike. With the seemingly worsening state of traffic in the metro, living near one’s school or place of work is an efficient option, both time- and money-wise. Not having to spend hours commuting or driving is a huge relief for city dwellers who are accustomed to spending at least half their working days on the road. During monsoon season, living nearby is a major boon for students and professionals because of the added hassle brought on by flooding.

This ideal set-up of living in the city center significantly reduces the amount of stress caused by commute, driving, urban pollution and traffic. For office workers and students, this kind of ease and comfort are invaluable. It allows them to focus more of their time and energy on their academics or their jobs, and in effect, allowing them to spend more time with their families, improving productivity and overall quality of life.

A major concern, however, has been the availability of residential options that are affordable, practical and accessible. Urban centers are associated with high real estate price tag. Many students and professionals resort to renting properties that may be too expensive or located farther from work or school.

Hoping to address this gap, Major Homes—a veteran developer of affordable, high-quality and investment grade housing properties—developed Space Taft. As a developer, Major Homes’ thrust is to develop housing projects that meet concrete needs and reasonable budgets. Space Taft is a perfect example of such property.

Space Taft is a hybrid type of building residence dubbed condormitel which stands for condominium, dormitory and hotel. This type of residential building combines the practicality of a dormitory and the simple luxuries of a condominium, operated as a hotel. Whereas some dormitories can sacrifice a certain level of comfort and security for affordability, Space Taft merges the essentials—safety, security, accessibility, functionality, affordability and necessary comforts. It is an upgrade from the average bed spacer experience minus the prohibitive cost of a high-end condominium unit.

This high-rise is strategically located along Taft Avenue in Malate, near some of Manila’s top schools and universities, major hospitals, government offices and commercial areas.

This is the third Space condormitel by Major Homes. The first one is in San Marcelino, Manila, another strategic location near schools like Adamson University, Philippine Normal University, Technological University of the Philippines and Sta. Isabel College, among others. The second development is situated in Ermita, also in Manila. A fourth condormitel is located in Sampaloc, Manila, along the University Belt. Following the success of the earlier launched condormitels, Major Homes developed Space Taft, this time to cater to students and young urban professionals along the busy Taft area.

Space Taft is a 28-storey building with over 400 units, covering a land area of 615 square meters. Each floor has 20 units. The building itself has a two-level parking lot and retail spaces at the mezzanine and the ground floors. The four sides of the building face Paco Park in Sta. Ana on one side, Pasay City on another, Intramuros and the iconic Manila Bay.

Tenants can choose from three sizes of units. The units are ideal for groups of friends, officemates or siblings who work or study, and are looking for a homey space where they can rest and relax during hectic weekdays.  

The 15-sqm unit can fit up to three bunk beds, has a kitchen, a toilet and bath, a closet and a study table. The 18-sqm unit has essentially the same layout except the added space allows for another extra bed. Slightly larger is the 19-sqm unit which can comfortably house up to four occupants and feature the same provisions.

The layout of each unit maximizes the space by focusing on the tenants’ living essentials while studying or working in the city.

Comfort is a primary consideration in the design and construction of Space Taft. All units are fully furnished and air-conditioned, given the unpredictable Manila weather which is often humid.  Each unit is also Wi-Fi internet-ready, a non-negotiable feature for today’s digitally savvy generation.
