Site Development Plan

We have three urban design strategies:

Scheme I- Each road subdivides the community into little villages.

Scheme II - A main road would allow access to the community, then paths would take you to each housing.

Scheme III- Streets divide the site into blocks then each block is subdivided into lots, organizing the spaces for urban housing and community spaces.

we are taking in consideration to further develop Scheme III due that we are required to develop a master plan for an urban community that can be applied to other similar urban sites. In Scheme III the street layout is more likely suitable for a urban community development that has to follow building codes, while scheme I & II are more like a village type.

Bamboo

A Brief research about bamboo and how it can be applied in construction. Bamboo is a multi-use plant that needs to be explore. It is a local plant and it can provide great benefits to the community and to the economy of the country.

Construction Supplies and Prices

This research provides information about the cost of construction supplies in the Philippines. The competition has a budget requirement for the dwellings, therefore economical construction is a key point to be considered in our design.
