The idea was to renovate and modernized the existing building, as well as to adapt a new paradigm shift as infill where there was a monotonous building rows within the street. Makati was a city with dominant opens spaces, pocket gardens and grid patterns. The existing façade was developed in line with its function to accommodate more office spaces. One of the major interests of designing is the relationships of a new building to the existing surroundings. The design approach demonstrates the recognized association of the building to its environs, through breaking down the distinct character of the adjacent buildings and the vicinity. The design was divided into two, the bottom part will be representing the micro context (adjacent buildings) and the upper part reflects the macro context (Makati's skyline). The scale and proportion division of the building façade establish a positive dialogue to with the neighboring buildings. They consist of vertical and horizontal direction in which the verticality was represented on the rear part of building while the horizontal was reflected through the adjacent buildings. 2018 Les Saisons The Ripple The Gallery at Valero One The East Grid Fair Shipping Office Koppel Factory Abenson Design Center Kalin Building Valley Bread Factory BSP Security Plant Complex Inoza Tower TKL Headquarters Seng Se Kah Office Aspen

This creates an architecture that creates direct movement and stability of process. The repetition of linear process creates a series of vertical elements that define the volumetric form from exterior to interior. The vertical fins give an interplay between transparency and opacity as well as proper light and ventilation. The gradient colors reflect the complexity of the office space and its identity. The resulting architecture gives spatial experience inside and out. 2018 Les Saisons Fair Shipping Office Builder's Center Salcedo One Seng Se Kah Office Abenson Design Center Valley Bread Factory The Ripple Koppel Factory The East Grid The Gallery at Valero One BSP Security Plant Complex Aspen Inoza Tower TKL Headquarters

Highly varied amenities are allocated throughout the building with a range of commercial and corporate offerings such as office spaces, cafes, retail stores, alfresco spaces, public parks, and restaurants. Residents in the condominium, workers in the offices and visitors of the public areas have the opportunity to enjoy these facilities whilst maintaining private access through specified elevator strategies. Responding to Manila’s increasingly limited available land, Les Saisons maximizes land use by bringing together different programs. The design integrates different needs and demands into one structure. WTA recognizes that given the building’s height, there is responsibility involved in designing a visually significant building. For this reason, site context and different massing were carefully investigated to present an optimal design strategy. 2019 Valley Bread Factory TKL Headquarters The Gallery at Valero One Inoza Tower Abenson Design Center Fair Shipping Office Koppel Factory Kalin Building The East Grid BSP Security Plant Complex The Ripple Builder's Center Salcedo One Aspen Seng Se Kah Office

The concept works around the two existing buildings designed by the National Artist - Architect Leandro Locsin. ‘The East Grid’ was named after its location in the East Triangle. The word ‘grid,’ represents power grids representing the four major power sector companies it will host, as well as Locsin’s grid of columns. Five main design points were synthesized in master planning the Diliman site. The first is the East Grid as a gathering point or hub. Second is the dialogue between old and new which WTA hopes to achieve by enhancing the presence of the Locsin building through open courtyards and grid reflections on-grid and mass. A multi-dimensional landscape is central to creating a holistic high-rise development. Engaging and active green spaces throughout the vertical floor space of the development will create a rich and dynamic program. This works in conjunction with the firm’s other design goals—to enhance work, life, and health through biophilic open spaces. The design embodies energy-efficient systems and innovative and sustainable design ideas. The East Grid integrates pedestrian-friendly spaces, interactive installations, bike trails, green promenades, alfresco spaces, and play areas into a development that will ensure a net leasable space of about 400,000 square meters. 2019 Inoza Tower Builder's Center Salcedo One The Ripple Koppel Factory Seng Se Kah Office TKL Headquarters Fair Shipping Office BSP Security Plant Complex Aspen Abenson Design Center The Gallery at Valero One Kalin Building Les Saisons Valley Bread Factory

The concept for the Valero One office building intends to divide the building into sections to suit various types of operations, grouping companies with similar functions. A central commercial area will thus provide the building’s tenants convenience for all their basic needs. Part of its overall development goals and strategies, the city of Makati aspires to be a paragon of development not only in terms of sustainability, vibrancy, and inclusiveness but also an inspiring urban environment filled with iconic spaces and structures that is well integrated into the fabric of the city, while preserving and celebrating the distinct characteristics and cultures it embody, and shall remain a multidimensional and cosmopolitan city. This 27-storey building will be the new face in and of Valero Street, Makati City. Surrounded by high-rise buildings with maximized footprints, open ground level experience in the area is deemed as a luxury. With the advantage of being able to connect to the adjacent 7-storey existing structure, provides a more extensive canvas, thus allows the building to expand both vertically and horizontally. This then provides ample area to replicate the exchange that happens in the ground level, enhanced by additional vantage points, views, and elevation. Valero One’s Sky Park, together with multiple balconies and decks as additional hubs created by extrusions and stacking of different volumes, becomes a celebration of human encounters and movement with nature and outdoor at its core. Generating an organic exchange between the city and its people, Valero one is a place where people would want to work, meet and stay 2017 Aspen Inoza Tower Fair Shipping Office Kalin Building Les Saisons Koppel Factory Abenson Design Center Valley Bread Factory BSP Security Plant Complex Builder's Center Salcedo One TKL Headquarters Seng Se Kah Office The East Grid The Ripple

Planning principles for the future demand a flexible and adaptable floor area as technology constantly improves the production process. The new Security Plant Complex rationalizes the program from a collection of individual structures into a united whole that provides maximum flexibility and allows for constant optimization. Each facility occupies a complete floor that allows for increased efficiency and connectivity and are linked through a linchpin security core. Integrated secure planning allows for compartmentalized operations and movement. The entrance plaza is divided into a collection of plazas protected by multiple security barriers. Operations and transits are shielded from observation via careful consideration of sightlines. The vertical core connects production operations with distribution and is adjacent to a secure courtyard that ensures and secures fresh air circulation in the entire facility. Center of Biodiversity The Philippines is a global biodiversity hotspot. The natural barriers incorporated into the BSP Security Plant Complex present us with an opportunity to create development that embraces nature by not just preserving but by enhancing it. These natural barriers take advantage of the site's unique qualities of pristine and impassable conditions to create a natural sanctuary for endemic birds and other wildlife. These sanctuaries with the water moats, together with the sloping towers symbolize our mountainous tropical archipelago in a natural landscape that reflects the richness and biodiversity of our islands. The Security Plant Complex will be the first central bank facility in the world to also serve as a sanctuary for our living environment. Living Facade The living façade is a showcase of over 250 endemic Philippine trees and an exposition of tropical shrubs and plants. A constant display of life that shields the administrative building from direct sun exposure and minimizes thermal heat gain from the afternoon sun. Inside is a ventilation stack that naturally cools the interior spaces and allows for a post-covid work environment with fresh air and green surroundings. The living façade allows us to grow over 400 trees on site and provide 23,000 sqm of green roof space to absorb over 70 tons of carbon emissions each year, while still preserving the majority of the single roof area for solar panels and collecting up to 70 million liters of rainwater a year. Natural Forms The financial system is built upon trust. Trust based upon legitimacy and strength derived from honest authenticity. The 3 main facilities are stacked layers that create an indelible rectilinear form. This stable foundation is clad in raw nickel, copper, and zinc. A reflection of the layering of our built forms, from bahay kubos to bahay na batos. This is a functional icon. A green landmark. An enduring icon dedicated to future generations. A unique sanctuary and living monument to the future of our nation 2022 Abenson Design Center Koppel Factory The Ripple The East Grid The Gallery at Valero One TKL Headquarters Kalin Building Fair Shipping Office Seng Se Kah Office Aspen Les Saisons Inoza Tower Valley Bread Factory Builder's Center Salcedo One

Though Brutalism is opaque in its most common nature, the design feels light and transparent due to the juxtaposing glass that offers transparency amidst concrete’s opacity. This new take on Brutalism makes use of materials in their most honest form embracing the company’s commitment to quality service that hopes to stand the test of time. 2015 Seng Se Kah Office Aspen Kalin Building Valley Bread Factory Abenson Design Center Koppel Factory The Ripple TKL Headquarters The Gallery at Valero One Builder's Center Salcedo One Les Saisons BSP Security Plant Complex Inoza Tower The East Grid
