For years, buyers chased one number: price per square meter.
The assumption was simple.
Bigger space = better investment.
But here’s the counter-intuitive truth:
In 2026, bigger floor area is no longer the smartest metric. Usable space is.
After studying buying patterns across Pasig and nearby areas for months, one thing is clear — the market has shifted. Smart buyers are no longer asking, “How big is it?”
They’re asking, “How well does it work?”
Why the Old Rule Is Breaking
Large single-level units look impressive on paper. But when you factor in:
• Dead hallway space
• Underutilized corners
• Higher cooling costs
• Higher furnishing expenses
• Longer cleaning and maintenance time
The efficiency starts to drop.
Meanwhile, vertical design is quietly outperforming horizontal sprawl.
This is where Lykke Kondo changes the equation.
Developed by PH1 World Developers and constructed by Megawide Construction, Lykke Kondo introduces Add-Loft Technology — engineered high ceilings converted into fully usable loft space at no extra cost.
You’re not paying for “air.”
You’re gaining structured, functional bonus space.
Three New Rules for Smarter Buying
Rule #1: Buy Vertical, Not Just Wide
A 38 sqm flat unit and a 38 sqm unit with loft do not offer the same experience. When space expands upward, you create separation — workspace below, bedroom above. Living area below, storage above. Function multiplies without increasing the footprint.
Rule #2: Optimize for Function per Peso
Instead of stretching your budget for a larger base area, prioritize layouts that maximize usability. Add-Loft gives you up to 14–21 sqm of bonus usable space depending on the unit type. That shifts the value equation dramatically.
Rule #3: Measure Time, Not Just Size
Bigger spaces often mean longer cleaning time, higher electricity consumption, and more furniture to buy. A well-designed Scandinavian-inspired unit reduces visual clutter and daily maintenance. Efficiency becomes part of your lifestyle.
Located along Marcos Highway in Pasig, just 120 meters from Ayala Malls Feliz, the value of Lykke Kondo isn’t just inside the unit — it’s in how intelligently the space is engineered.
In 2026, the smartest buyers aren’t chasing square meters.
They’re chasing efficiency.
They’re chasing flexibility.
They’re chasing extra — without paying extra.
So here’s the real question:
Would you rather own something bigger, or something smarter?
