Alesonor, a developer with more than 23 years of experience in building sustainable communities in Romania, and Medikali, a modern multidisciplinary clinic with 100% Romanian ownership, announce the signing of a partnership for the development of a medical clinic within Amber Forest Agora, the educational, sports, commercial and medical facilities area of the fully integrated Amber Forest suburb.

The building dedicated to medical facilities within Amber Forest Agora is being constructed to nZEB standards and will have an area of approximately 3,000 sqm, located on a plot of around 2,000 sqm. The total investment amounts to €7 million. The Medikali Center will occupy an area of approx. 1.000 square meters within this building.

The new Medikali clinic is scheduled to open in 2028 and will complete the integrated services ecosystem within Amber Forest Agora, providing access to modern medical services both for the community’s residents and for the wider public in Bucharest’s northern area. The partnership reflects the shared vision of the two companies to contribute to the development of a healthy and balanced lifestyle within a community built around the “15-minute city” concept.

„We offer in Amber Forest more than just homes. We are building a complete community where people have quick access to all essential services for a balanced and healthy life. The partnership with Medikali is a natural step in the development of the Agora ecosystem, and this collaboration brings together two companies that share the same vision for quality, wellbeing, and sustainable development”, said Alex Skouras, Managing Partner of Alesonor.

Dr. Adina Negoiță, CEO and founder of Medikali, added: „From the very beginning, Medikali’s mission has been to redefine the medical experience through empathy, respect and professional excellence. Our partnership with Alesonor and our presence in Amber Forest Agora offer us the opportunity to be closer to a modern, active community focused on quality of life, while also expanding our services with a second clinic in the northern area. We believe in developing integrated healthcare services within sustainable communities and beyond, where health and wellbeing become part of everyday lifestyle.”

The Medikali Clinic will integrate essential medical specialties for the entire family and will focus on the patient experience through an approach based on empathy, professionalism, and modern technology. Founded in 2022 by Dr. Adina Negoiță, the first Medikali clinic quickly became a benchmark in Romania’s private healthcare sector, thanks to its personalized medical services and a patient satisfaction rate of over 97%, according to internal studies. The Medikali Clinic is located in the Pallady area, District 3 of Bucharest, and treats more than 50,000 patients annually in the clinic, as well as over 3,000 patients each year in its medical recovery center. Its team of more than 80 doctors covers 30 medical specialties.

The Medikali Amber Forest medical center will integrate comprehensive laboratory testing and state-of-the-art imaging services, including ultrasound, high-performance MRI and mammography, alongside a wide range of medical specialties: cardiology, plastic surgery, dermatology, diabetes, nutrition and metabolic diseases, endocrinology, gastroenterology, family medicine, neurology, ENT, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, pediatrics, psychiatry and psychology, as well as urology.

Amber Forest Agora represents the center of the Amber Forest community and will include educational, sports, commercial and medical facilities, an open-air cinema, co-working hub and more than 500 parking spaces dedicated to visitors. The entire concept is built around the idea of a sustainable community where all essential facilities are accessible within a maximum of 15 minutes by walking. The facilities will serve approximately 600,000 people within a radius of approximately 20 minutes from Amber Forest, thus contributing to expanding access to modern services throughout Bucharest’s northern area.

Amber Forest is the first residential project in Europe certified LEED Platinum v4.1 for Communities: Plan and Design and is being developed across 31 hectares, with only 15% built area and more than 5.3 hectares dedicated to parks and green spaces. The project integrates energy-efficient homes, modern infrastructure and complete facilities for a sustainable lifestyle.

The Amber Forest suburb offers a wide range of housing types, including more than 20 villa models with at least three rooms and up to seven rooms, as well as over 14 apartment types, designed to meet diverse needs and lifestyles. Prices for the currently available three-room green villas start from €331,000 + VAT, while prices for two-room green apartments start from €165,000 + VAT. To date, 270 units have been delivered out of a total of 580 sold units, from 690 available units.

Phase II marks the continuation of the development of one of the most important sustainable residential communities in Romania, a project designed based on the principles of the “15-minute city” and developed as an integrated housing model, with an emphasis on sustainability, urban coherence, and quality of life.

In this new phase, STRABAG Romania will develop a residential area that will include 172 homes, of which 91 are villas and 81 are apartments with parking, totaling a built area of over 23,000 sqm.

Construction works have already started for the Type D apartment buildings, which will include a total of 81 residential units, distributed across three separate buildings.

In parallel, construction will also begin for several types of individual and collective housing units, namely Urban Villa 12, Urban Villa 11, Urban Villa 10, Urban Villa 08, Urban Villa 07, Urban Villa 06, Urban Villa 03, Urban Villa 02, as well as Symbio Villa 02 and Symbio Villa 03.

„The start of works for Phase II of Amber Forest, together with STRABAG, marks the next step of a development already validated in practice, within a community where over 300 homes have already been delivered, most of them already occupied. Beyond its scale, Amber Forest is defined by a broader vocation: that of serving an area of over 200,000 residents in northern Bucharest, through an open community with commercial, educational, and recreational functions accessible to the entire area. Phase II continues this vision, with the same strong commitment to quality, sustainability, and measurable performance.

The partnership with STRABAG is essential for this stage, as it allows us to maintain the technical standards of the project and ensure that the assumed objectives, including those related to LEED Platinum certification, are supported through rigorous execution, at the level of benchmark projects in the market.

A defining element of Amber Forest remains the strict control of living quality: all homes currently under construction, together with STRABAG and the other teams present on site, are and will be individually tested for air tightness before delivery, with results consistently below the 1.5 n50 threshold, reaching values as low as 0.6, a level of airtightness found in the most demanding international construction standards. This level of control is only possible through close collaboration between development and execution, and STRABAG’s involvement in Phase II represents an important step in maintaining and raising these standards for the entire community.”, said Leonidas Anastasopoulos, Co-founder and Managing Partner, Alesonor.

„The start of Phase II of Amber Forest marks the beginning of our collaboration with Alesonor, a partner that has already demonstrated the ability to deliver solid projects. STRABAG’s role in this partnership is clear: we translate Alesonor’s vision into execution, under conditions of predictability, quality, and proper delivery pace. We bring an experienced team and a structured way of working. We use digitalized processes for 3D modeling, progress tracking based on the model, and defect management directly within the model. In parallel, we apply LEAN Construction principles for efficient planning, waste minimization, and clear site organization. Because if there is one thing we do very well at STRABAG, it is using technology to transform the construction industry and its impact on the environment.”, said Bogdan Mărginean, Technical Subdivision Manager, STRABAG Romania.

„For our team, the start of construction works for Phase II of Amber Forest is an important moment, as we are effectively entering the execution stage of a complex project with high quality and sustainability requirements. We take on this role responsibly, through a structured approach based on rigorous planning and careful control of every construction stage. Our collaboration with Alesonor is based on clear objectives and a shared vision regarding the long-term performance of the project. We focus on integrating technical solutions that support energy efficiency and construction quality, so that the delivered results are aligned with the standards set for Amber Forest. Through our expertise in execution management, we aim to contribute to the development of a sustainable and well-organized community that meets the expectations of future residents.”, said Alexandru Popescu, Technical Business Unit Manager, STRABAG Romania.

At the Environmental & Sustainability Summit 2025, Alex Skouras, Managing Partner at Alesonor Real Estate Development, spoke about sustainability as more than green buildings or certifications — it’s about people, communities, and cooperation. “Sustainability has always been part of our company DNA. It has to do with technology, buildings, infrastructure, and what we deliver as developers or public authorities. But mainly it has to do with people, with providing the necessary education for people to understand how it should be integrated in the way they live their lives today and how they envision their children’s lives in the future.” He underlined that sustainable development is also about encouraging better lifestyles through mixed-use projects that reduce reliance on cars and provide services close to home.
