Beyond its programmatic and spatial characteristics, it can provide a framework for emerging communities. The city hall will stand as an architectural salute to Manila’s heritage and a public focal point for a reestablished community. Representing not only a visual re-imagining of Manila’s identity but a physical continuation of the town’s history. Our hope is that this town hall is not only an effective seat for the local government but a space that celebrates Manila’s history and establishes an enduring symbol of local identity. As they stand, the city hall is a government building. We have an opportunity to reimagine it as a space for representativeness, spatial quality, functionality, flexibility, comfort and sustainability. The City Hall should be responsive to the local climate of Manila. Borrowing from both tropical design concepts and the wind mechanisms of the Vinta, the city hall strategically arranges elements in buildings and structures to respond to specific conditions of weather, sun and climate prevalent in the Tropic Region. 2021 Sulong Manila Saint Scholastica Chapel Balanga City Hall Museo Pambata Reading Corners Highlands Chapel Trece Martires City Hall Chinese Embassy Cultural Section Merit Field Stupa Bataan Provincial Capital Masterplan Supreme Court Catbalogan City Hall Philippine International Exhibition Center Guggenheim Helsinki DSWD Elderly and Child Care Facility Church of the Multitude Tagaytay City Hall New Taipei City Museum of Art Taichung Cultural Center Ferdinand E.

The vision is to establish Bukidnon Aquatics as a state-of-the-art facility to support our nation's world-class competitive swimmers. WTA's design scheme resulted from combining form and program, breaking down the complex’s structure to carve out spaces for congregation and community activity. This led to the formation of a habitable roofline and urban plazas around the scheme, providing a promenade for both the Bukidnon government and its people to engage with each other on various occasions.

< Back City of Tomorrow: Urban Biodiversity By: Ar. William Ti, Jr. for Inquirer.net Date: The new administration presents us with an opportunity to recalibrate our urban systems. It is a new chapter for which we can write a healthier and much more robust human environment. How we plan our towns and cities and how we build our homes can be strategically planned to become holistic and cohesive endeavors. Government policy can become a strong and vital tool for nation building once more. The building program can be accompanied and shaped by policy to create social impact and further reach for each government project. 27 May 2022 This is especially important for our natural environment. As mentioned by President-elect Ferdinand Marcos Jr., we are one of the countries most vulnerable to climate change. We can better adapt our cities to climate change by learning to live with nature, and by developing planning strategies that bring back the protective and restorative qualities of our natural environment. Biodiversity hotspot These urban greens create natural corridors and sanctuaries for wildlife. The Philippines is one of the world’s leading biodiversity hotspots. We are caretakers of some of the most important marine and forest ecosystems. As with the rest of the world, land development and urbanization are the biggest threats to our biodiversity. In parallel to this, we have learned about the correlation of human happiness with the presence of nature in our daily lives. In developing human environment, towns and cities, the insertion of green spaces and the integration of natural systems must be an essential requirement and component of any urban plan. The development of green systems for inclusion in the architecture of new builds not only allows for sustainability as a cost driver, but also turns this into an attractive feature which, in turn, creates awareness and affinity for a green and sustainable urban future. Urban greens These urban greens create natural corridors and sanctuaries for wildlife. From living facades to green walls, from planted terraces to balconies with potted plants, from green hedges to climbing plants, the intention or active search for more and more spaces to naturalize as much of our living and public spaces as possible is a transformative process. The tropical climate that we have makes this one of the unique opportunities of our cities. We must develop the desire to create lush surroundings in our public space—to not just limit ourselves with grass and trees but also to apply rich natural landscapes of tropical species. These urban greens create natural corridors and sanctuaries for wildlife. It allows us to coexist with and not just push away the flora and fauna of our natural environment. We must be aware of local green pockets in every barangay. Think about how the availability of hyperlocal greens could make the lives of so many Filipinos who don’t travel far mentally and physically healthier. Our communities are living ecosystems that grow and live whether we want them to or not. How we want to shape these communities and how healthy we want them—and us, in turn—to be, are in our hands. Let’s bring back birdsong and rustling leaves into our daily lives and embrace a much brighter future. Design exploration requires the input of everyone in our community. We invite everyone to come join our explorations on the human environment. Join us on Instagram @wtadesignstudio and @entrari. Read the full article here. Previous Next Previous Next

< Back The vision of Architect William Ti By: Anna Mae Lamentillo for Manila Bulletin Date: How would future communities look like? How would they adapt to the challenges of the present? How would architects address these challenges to create livable cities? Horizon Manila by WTA Architecture and Design Studio is an answer to these questions. No wonder it won big at the 2021 World Architecture Festival — winner for the WAFX Water Category, and overall winner of the 2021 WAFX Award. 17 December 2021 According to William Ti Jr., principal architect of WTA Architecture and Design Studio, “When I think of tomorrow, all I want to see and hear are children playing and laughing; creating memories in thriving communities. The future is all about the next generation. It is about us finding a way to prosper in the human environments we have built for ourselves.” William Ti Jr. Anchored on this vision, Ti and his team conceptualized Horizon Manila, a 419-hectare reclamation project in Manila Bay that seeks to house 150,000 Manileños. It will be composed of three islands connected by a canal park. The aim is to grow 28 diverse communities similar to how we have barangays. These communities will grow around schools, churches, ball courts, parks, museums, theaters, and shopping centers. These communities will naturally grow together through shared experiences. HYPER LOCAL COMMUNITIES – Each of the communities in Horizon Manila are distinct and detailed to create hyper local communities. Green, walkable, sustainable Horizon Manila or Manileño will be a green space. It will increase the available public open space by over 50 percent in the city with its canal park and provide almost 20-kilometer of waterfront living. There will be tree-lined sidewalks and bike lanes, arcaded walkways, and a tram line that connects the three islands. Over 70 percent of the shoreline will be planted with mangroves. This will allow people to walk all the way to the water’s edge and enjoy walks by the shore with the sunset and the skyline view.Ti said they want people to reconnect with nature and appreciate public space. AERIAL VIEW of the three islands of Horizon Manila with Manila in the background. “We are building a city where you are always 400 meters away from the nearest tram or ferry station and anywhere in the three islands is always just 15 minutes away. More than half of Horizon’s streetscape will be primarily pedestrian,” said Ti. Another interesting detail of the project is the plan to harvest rainwater to solve water scarcity. Ti explained that Horizon will provide over three million cubic meters of freshwater reserve by collecting the annual rainfall. The projection is that the water reservoir can provide five months’ worth of freshwater to the city. Manila, reimagined While Horizon Manila is forward-looking, it remains rooted on the heritage of Manila. The reintroduction of canals, reservoirs, and waterways aims to rekindle the memory of what it means to be Tagalog, to live by the river. CANAL PARK – The Canal Park at Horizon Manila acts as the main spine around which the communities will grow. Meanwhile, each community or barangay, while distinct, will grow around a shared common ground. This is reflective of the historical districts of Manila, distinct yet interconnected — like how people can walk from Divisoria to Binondo, to Sta Cruz and Raon, from Ermita to Intramuros, from Malacañang to España. Ti said, “We named this project Manileño to highlight the focus on our people. Cities are about people. The future is about building strong communities. Our communities are about life. Life by the water. Life in our beautiful city of Manila.” Read full article here. Previous Next Previous Next
