Lumina Iloilo: Iba talaga pag may sariling bahay. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs tells us that physiologic needs (i.e. air, water, food, and shelter) are most important – followed by safety and security, love and belongingness, self-esteem, and self-actualization. In today’s time, renting is not sustainable, neither practical. This is why Lumina was created – to provide affordable, practical, and accessible homes to Filipinos.
