Project: Proposed New Clark City Executive Village

Project Type: Group-Project

Architecture Style: Tropical Style/ Modern Filipino

Location: Capas and Bambam, Tarlac

Year: 2022

The proposed development is named New Clark City Executive Village, a 103-hectare plot of land located outside the New Clark City Development. A 20-meter national road separates the New Clark City from the proposed New Clark City Executive Village.Designing the subdivision planning equipped to be aware of the socio-cultural background of the location gives value to the project. A well-designed subdivision may provide tremendous benefits to the community. In contrast, poor design may have major effects on the urban environment, society, and economy. Furthermore, the initiative would teach the community to recognize the improved quality of life that smart urban design can provide.

Project: Proposed New Polytechnic University of the Philippines

Project Type: Group-Project

Architecture Style: Modern Architecture

Location: Sta. Mesa, Maynila

Year: 2022

The proposed development is named Proposed New Polytechnic University of the Philippines, a 10.71-hectare plot of land located on the same site of the said university, the A. Mabini Campus. A 10-meter road separates the university from a railroad track of the Philippine National Railways and the Pasig River lies on the other side of the site. Designing this university would need the planning to consider the socio-cultural background of the location that gives more depth to the meaning of the project. In addition to that, the design would need to be able to adapt to the future improvements needed by the university to cater the needs of its students. Furthermore, the goal of this planning is to further improve the user experience in the university to create a community that leads towards an improved university life of the students.

Diagrams

Axis

The obelisk was utilized as a reference point. It is connected to the lign of sight comming from the main entry. This would allow the vista to follow the axis, creating a sense of foreground and backgrounf within the site. In which the obelisk divides the site into quadrants .

Zoning Allocation

Each quadrant represents the new zoning program of the site that will create a concentration of activities within the university premise. Phase 1 is allocated for sport facilities. Phase 2 was utilized fot academic zone. The Phase 3 has the library building and dormitories. Lastly, the Phase 4 is a space where the public can access the area.

Site Entrance

The site is composed of two entrances, the main entrance where students can enter and leave the campus as well as the vehicles. The east entrance of the site is designed to cater acvtivities such as concert and programs that is located at the oval. The east entrance can also be accessed by students, especially those who are residing at the dormitory.

Hierarchy of Road

Road hierarchy is then established at the site, a 10-meter carriageway will serve as the major road and shall cater to the catwalk. The proposed design is planned to be a walkable campus, therefore a 2-meter wide sidwalk provision shall cater to the large volume of pedestrians entering the university premise.

Campus Identity

Activism if inherent part of P.U.P. students. Pupians are politically and socially charged, and this character is what the design intends to express with the architecture of the campus. A space for popeye was provided in the site. It is a space where speech can be democratized and the voice of the students can prevail with more dominance

Future Expansion

A large portion of space is dedicated for future campus expansion. The lack of green spaces is a prevelent issue in P.U.P., therefore the linear park is repurposed as a walkable park while the green open spaces shall serve as a literal lung at the heart of the campus

Bulwagang Balagtas: Proposed New Bulwagang Balagtas

Bulwagang Balagtas

Project: Proposed New Bulwagang Balagtas

Project Type: Group-Project

Architecture Style: Parametric Style

Location: Sta. Mesa, Maynila

Year: 2022

The old bulwagang balagtas in Ninoy Aquino Library and Learning Resource Center, situated at the fourth floor of the building functions to accommodate several activities such as seminar, stage plays, and various programs. Problems of the existing bulwagang balagtas inlcudes; improper installation of acoustic panels, improper lighting, and a lack of staggered seating which would be ideal for speech intelligibility and comfortable sight for the audience. The proposed new bulwagang balagtas responds to the aforementioned problems. Staggered seating with an 8 degrees slope is applied as it is the most ideal sloping for an aduitorium theatre. Reflective materials such as wood is applied on the walls and ceilings for a much more effective distribution of sound. Sound absorption is also applied which would absorb the sound and have an ideal reverbation time.

Diagrams

Acoustic Ceiling Diagram

The form of the ceiling design reflects sound movement evenly across the auditorium seating area. The ceiling material induces sound reflection, allowing sound to move freely throught the auditorium. With the angled orientation of the ceiling, the law of reflection was taken into account when projecting the possible path of the sound.

The ceiling’s convex surfaces divert sound to the middle of the seating area of the usefeul sound direction that is distibuted evenly across the audience.

Lighting Ceiling Diagram

The illumintion calculation using the lumen or light flux method influence d the auditorium lighting design. L.E.D. lighting with its energy efficiency and longer lifespan, was the top priority for incorporating sustainable lighting into the design. A tube of light was used as a lighting strip while being diffused to ensure adequate lighting .

The number of T8 L.E.D. tube lights used in the design corresponds to the calculated number of fixtures required to illuminate the auditorium. Apart from the seating area and stage, a pin light fixture was sufficient to provide adequate lighting in the smaller spaces.

Sound Travel

-to prevent unwanted back reflections, parallelism between the opposing sound reflective boundary surfaces should be avoided.

Sond Absorption

-in some areas of the auditorium’s wall, there are acoustic panels. More of a focus is placed on a room’s mid-and high-frequency range via acoustic panels. The acoustic panels are designed to absorb sound which lowers resonance but it does not entirely removes it. In addition, it controls and minimizes noise, eliminate slap echo, and control comb filtering in a room.

Sound Insulation

- double wall creates air cavity which serves as sound insulation. The sound insulation is usually applied as a method of soundproofing. A large cavity of air usually introduced in this system, which performs better than the smaller air cavity. Generally, a large air cavity performs better as sound insulation than two smaller air cavities

Project: Proposed Valenzuela General Hospital

Project Type: Group-Project

Architecture Style: Modern Architecture

Location: Dalandan, Valenzuel City

Year: 2022

The proposed Valenzuela General Hospital is a solution to the rising health concerns of Valenzuela city. In which it will replace the old Valenzuela City Emergency Hospital, a primary care institution with a tertiary level hospital equipped with 300 beds. The paper shows the design considerations and solutions suitable for designing the general hospital. The effective and suitable circulation patterns on the spaces are stated along with how the spaces should interact with each other. Since the structure’s main function is for the health and welfare of people, provisions and restrictions are carefully followed in space programming which mirrors the behavioral pattern of the users. This study also presents factors that are applicable to the proposed structure based on the current covid-19 pandemic. The contextual factor, environmentalfactors, and

One-Storey Residential House w/Roof Deck

-Modern Mediterranean Style

The one-story residential house with a roof deck has a lot area of 286.50 sq.m and a total floor area of 155.10 sq.m. It is designed to reflect the architectural style of Mediterranean houses along with its modern twist. The project has an open layout that promotes flexibility in space as well as the roof deck, which can be used for various activities, especially for celebrations. The stucco finish of the walls in earth tones adds character to the design, as do the intricate tiles placed on the floors. The spaces of the one-story residential house are composed of three bedrooms, two toilets and a bath, a living area, a dining area, a kitchen, and a roof deck.

I was informed that I am tasked to create a 3d model of a two-storey with 5 units residence that would be presented to the client . I was excited and nervous at the same time since it is a client-based project, and I am also assigned to render the images and create a walkthrough video for the presentation. The plan was also revised when the junior architect consults with our mentor, in which I revised the 3d model as soon as I get the revisions. Supposedly I would only render the exterior of the two-storey duplex but since the client sent multiple photos of kitchen design, I was instructed to also model the interior of the project. After I finished the 3d model, I immediately render it on Lumion.
