Block House

2-Storey Residence with attic level

Location: Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines

Status: Contract Tender Stage

Inspired by the fundamentals of block building, the architecture is conceived by the thoughtful placement of volumes stacking and shifting upon one another. This results in creating a dynamic composition of volumes and a bold spatial depth to the façade.

 

The main level comprises 3 distinct blocks: At front is the steel-faced garage block; The glass block at north is an open social area for the living and dining space. It is transparent to the perimeter garden at three sides;  A service block at the south encloses the kitchen, pantry and powder room.  

 

The second level is a private level consisting of two blocks:  White block at front is the master bedroom and bathroom and a spacious walk-in-closet.   The grey block behind is composed of three bedrooms with bathrooms.  

 

A meditation-study block  finishes off the last level.  This particular area is a a space for relaxation, recreation and contemplation which also spills to an open deck area.
