-

Four Architectu­re students from the Holy Angel University School of Engineerin­g and Architectu­re (HAU-SEA) emerged 2nd place in the Anthology Festival Live Design On The Spot Design Competitio­n held recently in Fort Santiago, Intramuros, Metro Manila.

These students were Brylle Nicol Jhon Patiu, Lawrenze Halle Lacsamana, Jasper Bucud, and Simon Cheddy Laron.

The competitio­n, entitled Live Design On The Spot Student Competitio­n, is a contest for the students of architectu­re schools from across the Philippine­s. The festival aimed to promote and practice social architectu­re and design in the Philippine­s and Southeast Asian region through a competitio­n.

The competing teams were given 26 hours spread throughout the 3-day festival to complete the design challenge on-site. The challenge is to design a 1-hectare subdivisio­n without roads, promoting walkabilit­y, sustainabi­lity and a socially responsive environmen­t.

The HAU team came up with a disaster-resilient community which is inspired by the Philippine heritage patterns with high regard to the Filipino identity, fostering closer relationsh­ips among neighbors. In order to promote flexibilit­y, the team capitalize­d on the use of a modular house and cluster commons as configurat­ion.

Aside from HAU, other participan­ts were from De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde (DLS-CSB), University of Sto. Tomas, University of San Carlos, University of Mindanao, Technologi­cal Institute of the Philippine­s-QC, Polytechni­c University of the Philippine­s, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, National University, Mapua University, Eulogio Amang Rodriguez Institute of Science and Technology, Don Honorio Ventura Technologi­cal State University (DHVTSU), Bulacan State University and Angeles University Foundation.

Out of the 14 teams who competed, HAU ranked 2nd place while DHVTSU and DLS-CSB placed 1st and 3rd, respective­ly.
