SJDM CULTURAL CENTER:
Fostering Culture and Arts through Sustainable and Experiential Architecture
The city of San Jose Del Monte, a highly urbanized area in Bulacan, is facing significant challenges in preserving its cultural heritage due to a history of resettlement and rapid urbanization. As a result, there is a progressive loss of cultures and traditions The goal of providing a dedicated space for cultural activities is to create an environment where the community can actively preserve and celebrate their cultural heritage, strengthen social cohesion, and promote the long-term sustainability of San Jose Del Monte's cultural identity.

SITEISOMETRIC
The site was planned according to the natural contour line of the site. The buildings are placed on relatively flat area of the site while the rolling terrain was utilized by making it use for amphitheater for outdoor cultural events and activities. By integrating the building into the landscape, it will reduce the amount of excavation and grading required, preserving the natural topography and minimizing environmental disruption. This approach also enhances the aesthetic appeal of the building, making it blend seamlessly with its surroundings.

Exhibition Hall and Library
The building is composed of an Exhibition Hall and a Library The Exhibition Hall serves as a dynamic space for showcasing traditional crafts, historical artifacts, visual arts, and local cultural expressions, fostering appreciation and awareness through exhibits, multimedia presentations, and interactive displays. Meanwhile, the Library functions as a resource hub, housing books, manuscripts, digital archives, and audio-visual materials that document the city’s cultural heritage. It supports researchers, students, and cultural enthusiasts while also serving as a venue for lectures, workshops, and discussions.
High ceilings are incorporated to improve natural ventilation within the building. Warm air rises, and high ceilings allow this warm air to move up and out through strategically placed vents or openings This passive cooling strategy reduces the need for air conditioning, lowering energy consumption and creating a more comfortable indoor environment.
