CEBU TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSIY: A LEADING EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING INSTITUTION FOR AGRICULTURE, FISHERIES, AND TECHNOLOGY

Location: Bogo, Cebu

Project Type: Academic Project, Institutional Masterplan Project Composition: Partnership

Contributions: Primary Research, Gymnasium Planning, Development, and 3D Modeling,, Site Analysis, Site Development, and Architectural Diagrams

“Experiential learning through dynamic and stimulating environments”

The masterplan of the university is aimed towards upskilling new generation of farmers with state-of-the-art facilities. The concept revolves around experiential, holistic, and adaptive design to cater to growing population and trends of education. Part of the process in the overall masterplan design was the simulation of solar radiation analyis in the massing and interior spaces to maximize natural lighting and ventilation using VELUX Daylight Visualizer.

Findings based on the iterations of form, fenestrations, and materiality led to the design of daylighting strategies such as orientation, roof monitors, bigger openings, light shelves, atriums, and sunshading devices. The gymnasium was designed to cater to various functions with retractable roofing for indoor or outdoor activities and the provision of a movable flooring to turn the gymnasium into an aquatic center or an indoor sports venue.
