Live with Soul in Sta Elena by Architect Manny Minana

 This is one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen in the Philippines.  It has beautiful architecture and everything inside it is beautifully done with quality materials and furniture and accessories.  Another reason I love it is because it is Filipiniana. We are in the Philippines, we should build Philippine inspired homes and promote our very own.  This house is designed by Architect Manny Miñana who did such an amazing job!!!

Take note of how big everything is in the house 🙂  And the valuable pieces inside like this wooden table

Filipiniana accessories all over

Giant lamps and vases

Beautiful antiques 

First wing is where the Master bedroom is and 2 more bedrooms and a den

 Master Bedroom

Massage Table in the dressing room.  If I had a big house, I would probably have a separate spa 🙂 because I love Spas 🙂

 

Bedroom 1

All the bathrooms in the house are standard having the same fixtures and look.  It’s a good idea because it gives the house a unified look wherever you go

Guest room

Which opens to a pocket garden

I would not mind working here all day everyday!!
