Driving Sustainability: Lexus Drive with Architect Liza Morales

The destination was Tagaytay's newest Greek dining spot, Elaia by CYMA—a restaurant that champions fresh, unprocessed ingredients and dishes centered on extra virgin olive oil.

The event gathered architect Liza Morales and women from the construction and property industry, sparking conversations on leadership, empathy, and vision. These exchanges underscored how women often bring heightened attention to detail and a nurturing perspective to projects—balancing the needs of all stakeholders and the wider community, much like sustainability itself.

From the moment we settled into the plush vegan leather seats of the Lexus hybrid, it was clear that every detail was crafted with purpose. The ride was whisper-quiet, the handling graceful yet confident—an embodiment of Lexus' belief that luxury and responsibility can move forward together.

SUSTAINABILITY IN ARCHITECTURE

Elaia's transformation was led by Architect Liza Morales of Ecotecture Design Studio, whose design philosophy—authentic, sustainable, timeless—guided every decision. Known for blending form, function, and environmental responsibility, Morales approaches each project as a chance to create spaces that are both beautiful and beneficial to those who use them.
