location

Located across Rockwell Center, Acqua Private Residences is accessible via a newly-constructed bridge that traverses the historic Pasig River. This provides a direct link to this majestic new address allowing residents the advantage of being situated right at the meeting point of two cities: Mandaluyong, the undisputed mecca of the country’s biggest and most popular shopping malls, and Makati city, the Philippines’ epicenter for finance and social activity.

Acqua is also accessible from Edsa-Guadalupe on the right, and in the opposite direction through Coronado. The Pasig Ferry Hulo station is walking distance from the development and serves as an alternative transport route all the way to the city of Manila. Plans are also under way for Acqua’s own private river shuttle to traverse the river onto the Makati side of the Pasig.

the first three towers: niagara, sutherland and dettifoss

NIAGARA - Straddling the international border between Canada and the US, Niagara falls remains one of the most photographed waterfalls in the world. It is renowned for its magnificence and as a valuable source of hydroelectric power, managing the balance between form and function. This magnificent aesthetic brings inspiration to the Niagara Tower, the first building set to rise at Acqua Private Residences. The Niagara Tower ascends 42 storeys high with around 400 units facing the Makati-Rockwell, Manila and Mandaluyong skylines.

SUTHERLAND - Situated near Milford Sound in New Zealand's South Island, the Sutherland Falls were long believed to be the tallest waterfall in New Zealand. Cascading in three (3) soaring levels, it falls directly out of Lake Quill which is in turn fed by several glaciers producing their own flow. Its beauty is seen even from the air or by hiking two miles to the base of the falls from the Milford Track. This grandlose beauty brings inspiration to the Sutherland Tower, the second building set to rise at Acqua Private Residences.

DETTIFOSS - Pouring over a landscape of snow, ice and dramatic rock formations in northeastern Iceland is the most powerful waterfall in all of Europe and easily one of the world's most beautiful. 100m wide with a drop of 45m down to what looks like a miniaturized version of the Grand Canyon, it’s an awe-inspiring sight to behold and has become the inspiration for Acqua's third tower, the Dettifoss. Rising as the most central of the development’s six (6) buildings, it is one of the most desired choices for the future Acqua resident.

the fifth tower: iguazu yoo inspired by Starck

Philippe Starck is not only the world's most renowned designer but also a respected visionary.

His precocious awareness of ecological implications, his enthusiasm for imagining new lifestyles, his determination to change the world, his love of ideas, his concern with defending the intelligence of usefulness has aken him from iconic creation to iconic creation.

From the everyday products - furniture and lemon squeezers, to revolutionary mega yachts, hotels that stimulate the senses, phantasmagorical venues and individual wind turbines, he never stops pushing the limits and criteria of contemporary design.

Inventor, creator, architect, designer, artistic director, Philippe Starck is certainly all of the above, but more than anything else he is an honest man directly descended from the great artists of the Renaissance.

1/10

The idea is yoo, yoo creates extraordinary places, allowing people to buy functional, brilliantly-designed homes.

acqua iguazu by yoo for you

Acqua Iguazu by yoo inspired by Starck is literally a bridge away from all the conveniences and attractions of the Makati Central Business District. Just minutes from top schools, the best shopping malls, five star hotels, corporate offices of the nation's top companies and Makati's exclusive subdivisions.

But Acqua Iguazu in itself will also be a true vertical village where the yoo inspired by Starck design and philosophy will ensure that the tower is populated by a vibrant community, brought together by a passion for design and a desire to live in a unique and beautiful environment of like-minded people.

skydeck by yoo

Cielo features a truly unique multi-level, vibrant space. With a swimming pool, bar, dining area, function rooms, an indoor and outdoor library, a movie room and more, all for the exclusive use of the residents.

And as the iconic design feature of Cielo, a round sphere of light will illuminate the skyline. taking the form of a luminous full moon at night, and the warm rays of the sun during the day. The roof will have a cut out of a quote from The Little Prince written in Starck's own handwriting, thus creating a truly signature silhouette that will forever change the country's real estate landscape.

yoo amenities

The Wonder Bar is located on the first level of Cielo and will be a favourite area for residents to converge in.

A grand and awe-inspiring multi-level waterfall drops into the calm and refreshing pool, with a signature yoo-inspired by Starck poolside lounge.

A private home theatre is designed to provide full comfort for the residents.

A truly magnificent dining area at Cielo's top floor can be booked privately or used communally.

A focus for all yoo inspired by Starck's projects in the skill and process of designing the lobby. The long narrow room provided a natural aesthetic in which three frames funnel and exaggerate the length of the room, while providing an interesting focal point to which the eye is drawn.

the interiors

Acqua Iguazu brings Starck's unmistakable design magic into the first ever yoo inspired by Starck project in the Philippines.
