THE HILLSIDE

A proposed Retirement House

DESIGN CONCEPT

With its prominently large windows, decorated with a natural look of wood, white walls, and exposed raw concrete, The concept is in modern contemporary style More than the aesthetics, the house tends to emphasize energy efficiency, sustainable materials and concerned with lots of natural lights. Understandably, not all buildings must have balconies. However, having a sloping site is an exception Incorporating a balcony would take advantage of the privileged view over the landscape and it will also enhance the natural ventilation that the house receives This natural ventilation, while a source of fresh air, also aids in decreasing the energy bills of your home by becoming less reliant on artificial cooling Interior wise, The social space of the house assumes special relevance and feelings of spaciousness, materialized in a large central living room which extends to the kitchen In addition, The house has wide rooms with some of them having Corner windows Walls to seize the panoramic view of the landscape

WELLSPRING

A proposed National Government Office

DESIGN CONCEPT

The proposed national government office offers a stately yet opaque architectural vision of civic duty, purpose, and efficient design Essentially, the approach of the building aims to flip the conventions of civic design thus having the exterior in modern contemporary style fused with Filipino architecture in its interiors The building is deliberately designed with the aim to promote a renewed sense of community trust and business partnership within the city In addition, the spatial plans were of high consideration as it is key to maximizing flexibility and in achieving a workplace that promotes high productivity.

INTERIOR PERSPECTIVES

Employees working in office lounge areas are more productive than those who work in offices without them. This is according to several research papers that have proven that an office lounge area can indeed improve productivity in employees It is one of the main reasons why many modern offices keep these spaces

KANDILI A proposed Evacuation Center

DESIGN CONCEPT

Understandably, natural ventilation in buildings provides fresh air to the interiors, ensuring the evacuees a safe, livable and comfortable temporary stay on the structure By installing long horizontal louver windows on the perimeter of the building, it will also lessen the energy costs by becoming less reliant to artificial cooling In the same vein, natural lighting also has major paybacks for the electricity costs aside from it being essential to the interior s ambience

Considering the dimensions of the structure, natural source of energy was also implemented. It reduces the energy imports and use of fossil fuels hence; it helps the facility to be more sustainable as it accommodates huge number of users Correlating, movement of the people and its access to different areas indicates an imperative factor to the building Its circulation provides easy flow traffic between room departments that supply an easy navigation to the users

Moreover, natural phenomena do not ponder nor select a specific type of human, thus considering accessibility to all pathway were properly observed. It is to assure that all humankind were fairly treated as to satisfy their needs behind the effects of the natural actions

Henceforth, all the design considerations mentioned above were successfully taken into account without ignoring the structural aspect of the building The Structural design has always been crucial to any construction projects hence, it is the safety of the end-users that needs to be majorly considered.

L’HOTEL ROYAL ART NOUVEAU

A Modern Impression of Art Nouveau

DESIGN CONCEPT

The hotel has a huge art nouveau style inspiration that mainly focuses on peacock It feautures a highly expressive style materialized by the stained glass, tiffany lamps, decorative wrought irons, and intricate embellishments on the windows The olive green, yale blue and gold color palette is also an important reference to achieve the style

The hotel generally gives off a cozy, warm, and comfortable feeling because of its dark interiors, expansive windows, light colored tiles, and wooden doors that are so prevalent during the Art Nouveau movement

linear contours took precedence over color, which was usually represented with hues such as muted greens, browns, yellows, and blues

The movement was committed to abolishing the traditional hierarchy of the arts, which viewed the so-called liberal arts, such as painting and sculpture, as superior to craft-based decorative arts.

PAMBANSANG PALIPARAN NG PILIPINAS

A proposed Redevelopment of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport

DESIGN CONCEPT

There is a vital link between architecture and culture Thus, uniting the distinct architectural character of Mactan and Clark International Airport with the proposed redeveloped NAIA would make an identity for Filipino Aviation Architecture As travelers move through airports, they experience a series of different environments – from the bustling street outside to the terminal building, and finally to their gate Each of these spaces has its own unique atmosphere and design

The Philippines is called Asia's pearl of the orient for the richness of its culture and beauty of its landscapes Therefore, the Copen+Hagen team chose to use the clam's shell as the design inspiration for its shape Airport architecture has evolved over the years to meet the changing needs of travelers In the early days of aviation, airports were simply open fields where planes could take off and land But as air travel became more popular, airports needed to be able to accommodate larger numbers of passengers and airplanes

Today, airport design is all about creating an efficient and enjoyable travel experience To do this, architects need to consider everything from the flow of traffic to the location of amenities And with more people traveling than ever before, it's more important than ever to get airport design right The group decided to use Urban Oasis design This involves creating green spaces within the airport terminal that can provide travelers with a moment of calm amidst the chaos of air travel These oases can take many different forms, from small gardens to large parks

HEXAD

A Proposed Mid-rise Condominium in Tarlac City

DESIGN CONCEPT

Commonly, squares and rectangles emerge as the main options when designing The same way that arches and circular plans are our go-to form The role of geometric shapes in the architectural composition is endless However, we cannot forget a polygon that also serves its purpose: the HEXAGON
