The SMDC Nature Greenprint:
Building Communities That Breathe, Move, and Grow With You
In the middle of the country’s fast-growing growth corridors, finding a home that lets you breathe, move, and live mindfully can feel like a luxury. For SMDC Nature, it’s a standard.
Developed by SM Development Corporation (SMDC) — one of the country’s leading and fastest-growing property developers — SMDC Nature introduces The Greenprint, a new blueprint for greener, smarter, and more livable communities.
More than a checklist of eco-features, The Greenprint is a philosophy: designing homes that make life easier today while caring for the world of tomorrow.
Powered by the Sun
Across SMDC Nature communities, solar-powered systems energize hallways, elevators, and building systems, reducing power use by up to 35% and preventing more than 250 metric tons of CO₂ emissions each year per project, the same as planting 10,000 trees annually.
Through a partnership with a leading solar contractor, Buskowitz Energy, Inc., SMDC supports SM Prime’s path toward Net Zero by 2040, showing that clean energy can be both practical and lasting.
Water-Wise Living
Rainwater harvesting systems collect and reuse water for landscaping, keeping communities green while lowering costs. Dual-flush fixtures and low-flow plumbing make conservation effortless — sustainability that happens quietly, every day.
Open, Cooling Spaces
In every Nature development, open parks and shaded walkways do more than beautify. They help cool surroundings, improve air quality, and offer pockets of calm where residents can pause, breathe, and reconnect with each other.
Walkable, Human-Scale Design
Pedestrian-friendly layouts link homes, parks, and nearby shops, encouraging residents to walk or bike instead of drive. This human-scale approach reduces car use, lowers emissions, and brings a sense of community back to city life.
Gardens That Grow Together
Through community gardens and nurseries, residents can plant herbs, vegetables, or flowering plants — cultivating both food and friendships. It’s a simple joy that reconnects people to the land and to one another.
Paths for Every Companion
Every SMDC Nature community is built to be pet-friendly, with safe paths and open areas where all family members — furry ones included — can enjoy the outdoors freely.
Healthier Homes by Design
Homes make the most of natural ventilation and light, allowing air to circulate and sunlight to brighten spaces. The result: healthier, more energy-efficient homes that feel cooler and more comfortable year-round.
Built with Purpose
Each development uses locally sourced materials, lowering transport emissions while supporting Filipino craftsmanship and livelihoods. Accessibility is also built into every community — with step-free pathways, ramps, and well-lit common areas that make movement easier for seniors, parents with strollers, and persons with disabilities.
It’s design that sustains both people and place, creating inclusive communities that everyone can enjoy.
Ready for a Cleaner Future
The Greenprint for Everyday Living
For SMDC, sustainability is not a trend — it’s the foundation of community. The SMDC Greenprint ensures that every walkway, park, and window is part of a bigger plan: to make urban life healthier, kinder, and more balanced.
“Through SMDC Nature, we’re proving that livability and responsibility can grow together,” said Jessica Bianca Sy, Vice President and Head of Design, Innovation, and Strategy at SMDC. “Every design choice — from solar energy to shaded paths — is meant to make life better for families today and for generations to come.”
With SMDC Nature’s Greenprint, SMDC sets a new standard for what modern living can be — homes that care for people, and communities that care for the planet — designed to be inclusive, accessible, and enduring.
