PORTFOLIO
Ryenne Christa C. de Gorostiza
HELLO.
Welcome to my architectural portfolio.
Inside are six of my best digitally-created architectural projects with the last pages featuring some of my manual drawings. Each of the project will highlight my skills in designning, planning, and rendering - all of which I have acquired through the past three years I have spent in architecture school.
Concepts, forms, and space developments are shared; as well as floor plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and a master development plan. So, dive in to see my works page per page.
ABOUT ME
As a 4th year architecture student from Mapua University, I have earned knowledge in both design and planning, as well as an understandding of different building systems used for buildings. I also had great training in multitasking and being ahead of the deadlines as time in Mapua is very limited per term. Hence, I am equipped to be an architectural internee.
OBJECTIVES
To exert my gained skills in design, planning, drafting, and rendering through hardwork, dedication, timeliness, and teamwork, for the benefit of the architectural firm; it is also my goal to be an impactful internee who would be able to contribute to the success of the project, and learn via careful observance and experience from my future mentor/s.

TAWID - A CULTURAL 02
Design Concept
Tawid is a legacy designed after the woven threads passed down by the cordilleran master weavers to their succeeding generations. As a cultural center, the proposed project will serve as a statement promising that the art and traditions of cordillera will always be remembered and practiced.
Thus, the proposed project is named “tawid”, which is a cordilleran term for the act of inheriting.
To further emphasize cordilleran art and culture, elements seen on the plans and the structure’s exterior are patterns found in the region’s handmade textiles. Vibrant colors, such as red, yellow, and orange are used giving life to the building.

PROVINCIAL POLICE 03
Design Concept
Given their long history with violence and strict rulings, the presence of the police often intimidates people. Such impression creates a wall between officials and the general public resulting to conflicts and issues.
For this project, the concept is from the phrase “hand in hand”, which describes a police-people relationship that is healthy and sustainable.
The structure is envisioned to break the wall and introduce a police image that is respectable and approachable by creating a space that enables private work environment while maintaining open and welcoming spaces for the public to enjoy.

SUHIRON - BOHOL 04
Design Concept
Located in the province of Bohol, the proposed domestic airport is designed after a local fish in the region that is known as “bangsi” or the flying fish.
Bangsi came from the exocoetidae family, which name translates to “exploring the outdoors” - a phrase that all travelers are aiming for whenever they up to visit bohol. These flying fish may be seen rapidly leaping out all over the Bohol sea, making the building a mass that signifies how the waters of bohol is able to meet the sky.
Thus, the roof design imitates the form of a group of bansi leaping up from the airport structure; and its name, “suhiron” is a boholano term that translates to exploring.

MODERN CHINESE 05
Project Abstract
A Chinese businessman will be opening a beach resort-hotel to highlight Pseudo-Traditional Chinese Recreational Facilities, that will cater to relaxation and escapism from the routine stress and pressure from the demanding city life. The complex will have calming Zen Gardens and Koi ponds, as well as a blend of Modern and Ancient Chinese practices leading individuals into the state of Zen.
The requirement for a blend of modern and traditional Chinese cultural leisure facilities will pave the way for cross-cultural cooperation. This facility would also serve to highlight the beauty of Chinese culture, influencing and enriching our own.
