Meet the WTA team. WTA Family WTA Architecture and Design Studio is a family of thinkers who are bonded together by the idea that we have the passion and curiosity to be the best. While our architecture continues to grow and develop, it is our hope that we ourselves never stop doing the same. We believe that our biggest legacy is this family that never ceases to grow. WTA is the extended family that will, in time, be the studio’s greatest legacy. WILLIAM TI, JR. Principal Architect William graduated from National University of Singapore (NUS) with a Master’s Degree in Urban Design in 2012, and acquired his Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture from the University of Santo Tomas (UST) in 2002. Together with friends, he formed a partnership in 2005, and finally founded WTA Architecture and Design Studio in 2007. In the 18 years of his professional career, he has worked on hundreds of projects ranging from retail shops and housing projects to large scale malls, residential condominiums, hotels and master-planned developments. As a firm believer in sustainable planning and the advantages of urban living, he tries to imagine a better-curated more design-focused society where beautiful things and pleasant environments are ubiquitous, even in the densest city centers. He avidly collects superhero toys and religiously reads comic books and fantasy novels. On the rare day-off from architecture, he wanders around as a student of life, observing urban conditions.

People Our studio is built on a genuine passion for architecture. We are energized by its possibilities and driven by the pursuit of meaningful design. Every success is celebrated, every setback becomes a lesson, and every project deepens our commitment to the discipline. We believe that knowledge grows through openness. Ideas, experience, and expertise are shared freely within the studio, fostering a culture of continuous learning and collaboration. As new members join our team each year, they contribute fresh perspectives that merge with our collective experience, strengthening both the studio and the work we produce. This spirit of exchange extends beyond our practice. We actively collaborate with government agencies, academic institutions, and industry partners, while organizing a semiannual design workshop that explores new concepts and urban ideas for Manila and its evolving neighborhoods. Our commitment to advancing design culture has also led us to partner with organizations that champion urban transformation, including Artesan Prime Properties, a design-led urban developer; the Book Stop Project, an urban research initiative promoting literacy and public engagement through books; and Anthology Architecture and Design Festival Manila, the Philippines' largest celebration of architecture and design. Through these collaborations, we seek to broaden the conversation around cities, design, and the role architecture plays in shaping everyday life. WILLIAM TI, JR.

Mannie acquired his bachelor's degree in architecture from the Mapua Institute of Technology in 1984 and passed the board exams of July 1986. He has been an architect for more than 30 years and had experienced a variety of architectural and engineering projects, and had a chance with working with several designers, consultants, and contractors both local and abroad. Early in his career, he worked as an architectural renderer, a detailer, graphic and layout artist, and part-time contributing designer for Home Ideas Magazine. He later joined the office of Asian Architects in 1991 and got involved in doing private residences, study centers, and schools notable of which is the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) Campus in Pasig. Mannie's work also included projects for the clergy, designing oratories, small chapels and church “retablos” or altar backdrops for several churches around metro manila. In the early part of the 2000s, he had a brief stint overseas being employed in several consulting firms in the Kingdoms of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain preparing architectural working drawings for different undertakings around the region like villas, supermarkets, and showrooms. Preferring to work in the Philippines rather than abroad, Mannie landed a job in construction as a project architect for DDT Konstract in 2004, assigned at the SM Supercenter Mall project in Cavite. In 2006 he was accepted at GF & Partners, Inc. as a Senior Architect and designated as one of the job captains to handle large scale projects including the Trinoma Mall in Q.C. and the Serendra East Tower Condominium in Taguig. Mannie joined the WTA Team in March 2014 as Project Manager and later as Associate Director
