The Seasons Residences by Federal Land: A home where two cultures thrive

In our ever-changing world, more people are looking for more than just a roof over their heads. They want homes that reflect their values, elevate their routines, and bring a sense of peace and purpose. This is exactly what Federal Land’s The Seasons Residences offers—a thoughtfully designed space that blends modern comfort with cultural depth. For many Filipinos, that means warm, welcoming spaces, built for togetherness. For the Japanese, it means homes designed with intention, harmony, and quiet efficiency.

While these may seem different, these two lifestyles do beautifully complement each other. Both cultures prioritize simplicity, thoughtful design, and a deep respect for family and community.

At The Seasons Residences, these philosophies come together naturally in one thoughtfully crafted address. This landmark development is the result of a partnership between Federal Land, Inc., Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., and Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings Ltd. The result is a lifestyle that’s designed for real life, but elevated in every sense. It is a place where the best of Filipino and Japanese life converge.

Japan and Philippine lifestyles at their best

What sets The Seasons Residences apart is how it reimagines modern urban living through the lens of Japanese sensibility. Every detail is carefully considered to enhance the experience of home.

Each tower is also named after a season to capture Japanese reverence for nature: Haru (spring), Natsu (summer), Aki (autumn), and Fuyu (winter). All four towers are equipped with Viscoelastic Coupling Dampers to improve structural resilience during earthquakes and high winds.

Inside each unit, residents enjoy subtle but meaningful features that make daily life more convenient and comfortable. Entryways include genkan-style vestibules, while smart storage solutions help keep living spaces organized. Kitchens are fitted with Japanese range hoods, space-saving sinks, and air-washing tiles that reduce humidity and odors. Even the plumbing is thoughtfully designed, with sunken slab drainage systems to simplify pipe maintenance.

First and only Japanese mall

The experience comes full circle with MITSUKOSHI BGC, the first and only Japanese mall in the Philippines, located at the podium level.

Now celebrating its second anniversary, MITSUKOSHI BGC has quickly become a lifestyle destination for all things Japan. It is a curated haven of premium retail, authentic dining, and everyday essentials, as well as beloved Japanese brands making their first appearance in the Philippine market.

Residents of The Seasons Residences enjoy direct elevator access to this lifestyle hub. From Japanese grocer MITSUKOSHI Fresh, beauty house MITSUKOSHI Beauty, home retailer Nitori, coffee specialist Key Coffee Kissaten, fashion labels Snidel and Fray I.D., the interactive Bandai Gashapon, to bookstore Kinokuniya x Fully Booked, everything is within reach. This fusion of home and lifestyle, built on Omotenashi, the Japanese tradition of hospitality and customer service, creates a living environment that is both elevated and effortless.

Federal Land’s retail excellence

As a cultural and lifestyle destination rooted in Japanese tradition and Filipino hospitality, MITSUKOSHI BGC continues to set the standard for refined urban living. In 2025, it received several prestigious awards that reflect its commitment to authenticity, innovation, and service:

Best Lifestyle Mall Award

Retail Asia Awards 2025
Recognized for redefining the mall experience through curated retail, immersive design, and seamless integration of Japanese culture into the everyday lives of Filipinos.

Silver Award for Honmono: Bringing Authentic Japanese Living to Life

Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards 2025
“Honmono,” meaning authentic in Japanese, celebrated MITSUKOSHI BGC’s dedication to authenticity, from original Japanese brands and premium products to the overall experience of genuine cultural immersion.

Bronze Award for Omotenashi: Transforming Retail Experience through Japanese Sensibilities

Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards 2025
This campaign honored the Japanese spirit of heartfelt hospitality, showcased through personalized service, thoughtful in-mall experiences, and warm, intuitive customer care.

These awards affirm MITSUKOSHI BGC’s role as more than just a retail space. It is a symbol of the enduring friendship between Japan and the Philippines, and a place where lifestyle and culture come together with purpose and care.

Tadaima to Natsu Tower

The community continues to grow with the upcoming handover of Natsu Tower, scheduled for the third quarter of 2025. As the second of four towers to open at The Seasons Residences, Natsu draws inspiration from the joy and brightness of summer.

Its units are designed to encourage openness and ease. This is the kind of place where you can unwind after a long day, host spontaneous get-togethers with friends, or enjoy quiet mornings with a cup of tea and sunlight streaming in.

Natsu Tower also offers a variety of leisure amenities. A swimming pool, children’s playground, karaoke room, and golf simulator create opportunities for recreation and fun. It feels like summer, all year round.

Own a piece of Japan in BGC

At its heart, The Seasons Residences represents the best of Japan and Philippine lifestyles. It is a place where two cultures come together to celebrate what they have in common: a shared appreciation for harmony, resilience, and grace.

With strong demand, only a few units remain in this sought-after address. Residents of Haru Tower are already enjoying the comforts of home, while Natsu Tower will soon welcome new homeowners by the third quarter of 2025. As Fuyu, the final tower, nears completion, now is the time to own a piece of Japan in the heart of BGC, before the last units are gone.

And for those who wish to turn this inspired lifestyle into a smart long-term plan, The Seasons Residences also presents opportunities for investment through FedLease, Federal Land’s Residential Leasing Program.
