Winson Ho, founder and CEO of Everlight Group, said the new luxury development was inspired by Blue Zone research, which focuses on "activity, purpose and strong social connection."Ace & Ivy is designed by the architecture firm Lake Flato. (Rendering courtesy Ace & Ivy)Blue Zones, according to the National Library of Medicine, are five places around the world where people consistently live over 100 years old. The concept originally began as a National Geographic expedition led by explorer Dan Buettner to uncover the secrets of longevity, the website states.
“Ace & Ivy was founded on the belief that your home should help you live well,” Ho said. "I’m excited for residents to experience what happens when well-being is part of their everyday environment.”
