Always seeking new ways to innovate, ๐๐ช๐๐๐ง๐ช๐ฅ๐ก๐ ๐ผ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ก๐ค๐ฅ๐๐ง ๐ฟ๐๐พ๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐จ continues to explore new technologies to promote sustainable living in its condominium communities. Just recently, ๐ฟ๐๐พ๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐จ introduced solar tube lighting in its The Atherton condominium along ๐ฟ๐ง. ๐ผ. ๐๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐ค๐จ ๐ผ๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง๐๐ฃฬ๐๐ฆ๐ช๐ ๐พ๐๐ฉ๐ฎ to harness the power of natural daylight. Strategically placed along The Athertonโs open lawn, the solar tubes effectively "harvest" natural daylight and distribute it into the interior spaces of the indoor badminton court.
This process, known as daylight harvesting, enhances indoor illumination by generating an additional light source rather than relying solely on costly artificial lighting. These lights provide additional illumination equivalent to at least 300 watts of energy during daytime at peak noon hours. This translates to energy savings totaling 1.8 kilowatt-hours (kWh) based on a study conducted by DMCI Homesโ Design and Engineering Department.
The solar tube lighting was introduced to complement ๐ฟ๐๐พ๐ ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐จโ ๐๐ช๐ข๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐ฉยฎ ๐ฟ๐๐จ๐๐๐ฃ ๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ค๐ก๐ค๐๐ฎ โan innovative design that ensures free-flowing air and abundant natural light inside high-rise condominiums.

The ๐๐ช๐ข๐๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐ฉยฎ ๐ฟ๐๐จ๐๐๐ฃ ๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ค๐ก๐ค๐๐ฎ takes advantage of natural light and air through three-story-high openings dubbed Sky Patios, serving as entry points to make this achievement possible.
This design also significantly enhances residents' well-being as exposure to natural light has been found to positively impact human health and well-being.
Moreover, the improved air circulation prevents the accumulation of moisture, odors, and harmful gases, resulting in long-term health benefits for the building occupants.
โDriven by innovation and guided by sustainability, we are continuously finding ways to enrich the lives of our residents while reducing our environmental impact through the use of eco-friendly technologies and practices,โ Butch Mendizabal, DMCI Homes Corporate Communications Manager, said.
