Ortigas Center's literal hidden gem is Glas, a 42-storey, premium-grade office tower located along Opal and Ruby Roads sandwiched between other high-rises. It is expected to receive at least a LEED Platinum designation. I love how understated yet interesting this building is. Going beyond just a generic glass box, the design features a very steep slope on the South side and the diamond-like facets on the glass sides of the tower certainly add more to it's character. The tower was still dirty when filmed so the triangular facets couldn't be seen in most angles. Hoping to do a revisit once all the glass is in place.
