The Residential of The Morizen developed at Summarecon Mutiara Makassar was designed by a well-known architect from Japan, Takahiro Fuwa. This exclusive residence comes with four residential types, namely Nara type (12x20), Keyaki type (10x20), Hiiragi type (10x18), and Yanagi type (8x18). Each residential unit is equipped with a smart door lock and other smart home technology features. The Morizen was officially introduced to the public at the Product Knowledge event which was held at the Claro Hotel Makassar on Monday, 27 May 2024.

"The presence of Living Room with a siling 6.5 meters with a vertical atrium concept will also provide a more beautiful natural view angle and live through the touch of the surrounding glass wall. This residence presents a 2-story room with an open ceiling. There is also a backyard that can be used as an Alfresco Dining area and an outdoor mini pool, as well as an option to organize entertainment rooms and a rooftop garden on the top floor," said Indra, in his statement, Tuesday, June 18.

Not only that, from the side of the environmentally friendly region The Morizen is also presented through green open spaces ranging from the entrance gate to the vicinity of the cluster. This makes the experience of living in an inseparable home from nature according to the concept of traditional Japanese design, Shakkei. This concept can be seen from landscape designs that combine the garden part with nature as a background object, so there is a balanced impression between home and nature.

The Morizen residence has a unique fasad design that combines Japanese designs with Indonesian culture as seen on the roof. In addition, this cluster is also equipped with a clubhouse consisting of indoor and outdoor parts with swimming pool facilities, terraces, gazebos, and children's playgrounds, thus giving a comfortable impression that every family always dreams of.

Toyosada Shima, as Director of PT Sumitomo Forestry Indonesia, said that the cluster The Morizen in Summarecon Mutiara Makassar has been tested as an environmentally friendly and sustainable residence because it has EDGE certification issued by the IFC (International Finance Corporation).

"Which means we have saved 20% of the energy and water consumption, as well as the carbon contained in the building when compared to the average other buildings. We hope that the presence of The Morizen, which prioritizes the value of sustainability, can be well received by the people of Makassar," said Toyosada.

The launch of The Morizen is a continuation of the collaboration between Summarecon Mutiara Makassar and PT Sumitomo Forestry Indonesia, a subsidiary of Sumitomo Forestry Co Ltd., which began in 2021. In this collaboration, the two companies have the same mission to provide environmentally friendly exclusive residences. Previously, Summarecon's collaboration with Sumitomo Forestry had successfully launched The Morizen at Summarecon Bekasi, whose construction has now been completed and its marketing has almost sold out.

The Morizen was born from the development of a residential area centered on the concept of Mori describing a house built on the basis of tree life in a forest with wood as its main element, and Zen from a concept of life that focuses on respecting nature with the hope of guiding life to peace and harmony. This residence is an attempt by us to create and develop a classy residential area that combines the architectural balance of the surrounding home and natural peace.

Sutami KM 8, the location can be reached within 15 minutes from the middle of Makassar City. Other advantages are also close to the Rainbow Food Center culinary area, Al Azhar Summarecon Mutiara Islamic School Makassar, Graha Boulevard Commercial Area, as well as several facilities that will soon be present, namely the Summarecon Mall Makassar shopping center, the De Festive multifunction area, to the Summarecon Makassar Convention Center. Summarecon Mutiara Makassar was developed on an area of 500 Ha.
