Japanese-Inspired Wave Towers Spotlighted at Filipinohomes CLI Product Knowledge Seminar

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – Filipinohomes agents gathered at the network’s Cagayan de Oro office on August 19, 2026, for a product knowledge seminar on Cebu Landmasters Inc. (CLI), with a spotlight on The Wave Towers—the developer’s landmark ₱9.2-billion joint venture with Japan’s NTT Urban Development Asia.

A Fusion of Cultures

The seminar’s centerpiece was The Wave Towers, a two-tower residential development in Cebu IT Park. The project marks CLI’s first international joint venture, with NTTUD Asia—a subsidiary of Japan’s NTT Group—as its partner. Designed with the concept “Rooted in Japan, Rising from Cebu,” the development fuses Japanese precision with Cebuano warmth.

The facade draws inspiration from Katsushika Hokusai’s iconic “The Great Wave off Kanagawa,” incorporating wave motifs that symbolize harmony between calm and vibrance. Japanese firm Nikken Sekkei, whose global portfolio embodies modern Japanese architecture, served as consultant.

The development comprises approximately 1,400 units across two 40-storey towers, with a mix of studio to three-bedroom layouts. Unit sizes range from approximately 24 to 122 square meters. Japanese design elements are integrated throughout: all units include shoe boxes, while select units feature sliding doors and bathtubs—features uncommon in the local market.

The Evolution of a Premium Address

The first phase, Tower Nagomi, broke ground in September 2025. The project’s strategic location in Cebu IT Park, the city’s premier business and lifestyle hub, positions it as a premium address for urban professionals. The seminar equipped agents with updated expertise on CLI’s expanding residential portfolio.

CLI reported ₱18.5 billion in revenue and ₱3 billion in net income for 2025, with residential reservation sales reaching ₱24.6 billion—a 45 percent year-on-year increase. The developer’s market share in Visayas and Mindanao stood at 18 percent in 2025.

A Growing Pipeline in CDO

The seminar also provided an update on CLI’s broader project pipeline. For the second half of 2026, CLI is launching ₱25 billion worth of projects—more than 11 projects comprising over 5,600 residential units, mostly affordable housing under its Casamira brand. The pipeline spans established and emerging growth markets.

Cagayan de Oro remains a key market for CLI. The developer is advancing its Manresa Town township in the city, a 14.6-hectare integrated mixed-use development anchored by the Xavier University Masterson Campus of the Future. The first residential project in the township, One Manresa Place, generated ₱4 billion in sales within its first two days and is now 99 percent sold.

CLI has also committed ₱120 million to the Manresa access road, a 2-kilometer link connecting Masterson Avenue to Balulang Road. These investments reinforce the developer’s long-term commitment to CDO’s growth.

Empowering Agents for the Future

For the agents who attended the August 19 session, the training provided a competitive edge in marketing CLI’s projects. With detailed knowledge of The Wave Towers’ unique design philosophy, unit configurations, and financing options—alongside CLI’s broader pipeline in Cagayan de Oro and beyond—participants are now better equipped to guide buyers toward one of the VisMin region’s most trusted developers.

As Filipinohomes pushes toward its goal of 150 branches nationwide, events like the August 19 CLI product knowledge seminar ensure that its agents remain aligned with one of the network’s key developer partners. The session reflects the network’s commitment to continuous learning and its recognition that a well-trained sales force is essential to capturing opportunities in one of the country’s fastest-growing property markets.
