Bay Benefits: The Science of Living Well at SMDC Spaces by the Bay

The Philippine Star

January 31, 2025

What if your home could be more than a space to rest? What if it could be a sanctuary that naturally nurtures your well-being, day in and day out?

At SMDC Bayside Living, this is not a distant dream but an everyday reality—especially when you live by the iconic Manila Bay. Backed by science, coastal living offers benefits that extend far beyond the charm of sweeping sunsets and sea breezes. It's a lifestyle designed for wellness and longevity.

Studies on some of the world's communities with the longest life expectancy—including those in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the famed "Blue Zones"—show that key lifestyle habits contribute to a longer and healthier life. These include daily movement, meaningful social connections, and access to open spaces. Hong Kong, for example, boasts one of the highest life expectancies in the world, a fact attributed to its walkability, active social culture, and health-conscious lifestyle.

At SMDC Bayside Living, these same principles are woven into everyday life. Thoughtfully designed spaces encourage movement and social engagement. Here, health and longevity are not just aspirations—they are part of the way you live.
