The Community Water Building

S

iargao is one of the many provinces in the Philippines that has the lowest potential of groundwater relative to its surface water potentials. The reimagined tabo would give access to the community for their needs, especially water. With a vision to gather the people in a main space, it serves as a place for reconnection.

GF

The rainwater collection system is the highlight of this project. It would collect rainwater for the community and become a source of natural resource. This project aims to bridge the gap between the understanding of nature and technology to help better manage our resources.

YEAR IV

This flexibility in design is explored to help in the changing needs and spatial rearrangements brought by the pandemic. E-consultations are more prevalent which changes the spatial requirements but still maintains its reversibility to the traditional medical consultations.
