Beyond meeting capacity requirements, the design also placed strong emphasis on communal and interactive spaces. Various shared facilities such as the library and canteen were strategically positioned between classroom floors, and student lounges were distributed across the remaining floors to ensure accessible breakout areas. An open-air lounge was then introduced at the uppermost level to provide users an expansive view of the city beyond. At its core, the building aims to inspire a shift in how educational spaces are designed, and serves as a benchmark for what learning institutions should aspire to be, open, integrated and student-centered.

The design process began with the challenge of fitting a large academic program within an otherwise compact footprint. With the density of its users requiring for efficiency, the resulting concept was then materialized into a 14-story vertical campus housing over 150 classrooms and catering to approximately 7,500 students. A central scissor stair is then constructed within a full height atrium to enhance movement across all floors while responding with the limitations of the urban site and ensuring natural light and ventilation across all floors.

As the client’s last Downtown lot, the University of Cebu Jones Campus holds both sentimental and functional significance in the institution’s long-term expansion. Situated prominently at a through lot between Osmena Boulevard and Pelaez Street, the double frontage project was envisioned as a landmark development to mark the university’s legacy, and alongside it, the goal to accommodate its growing population.

A defining feature of the design is the use of breeze blocks on the second floor, which serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. Positioned as the focal element of the façade, they introduce depth and texture to the exterior while enabling air to circulate freely across the upper level. Further, this element reinforces the home’s passive cooling strategy and reduces dependence on mechanical ventilation. Together with the openness of the interior spaces, it establishes a comfortable living environment attuned to its tropical setting.

The steep roof pitch combined with strong horizontal lines gives the home its grounded, low-lying character that resonates with modest proportions typical of Balinese vernacular forms. The restrained palette and straightforward detailing reflect a design approach that values efficiency and clarity. Through careful planning and material selection, the project fulfills the client’s vision of a dream home that is cost-effective, climatically responsive, and architecturally coherent—simple in appearance yet deliberate in every aspect of design.

The residence is composed of three distinct volumes, each defined by function yet connected through a landscaped garden at the center. This configuration allows for natural zoning between private and communal spaces while maintaining a seamless flow of movement and visual connection throughout the house. The open floor plan enhances spatial continuity which encourage cross-ventilation and daylight pe*******on into interior spaces. Materials were then selected based on their ability to express texture and authenticity to highlight the structure’s form rather than concealing it.

The client’s admiration for the light, breezy, and vernacular qualities of Balinese architecture served as the primary inspiration for the design of this residence. The approach focused on translating the essence of Balinese design into a contemporary setting while maintaining its simplicity and warmth. With a regular-shaped lot offering flexibility in layout, the challenge was to create a composition that remained organized and sensible within an open site condition. This led to a clear and well-grounded massing strategy that established direction and balance early in the design process.
