Bengaluru’s airport captures the power of design to connect people to places. The fluid forms of rattan weave through the interior like an invitation to explore. Imagine if our civic centers in the Philippines echoed this philosophy, transforming public spaces into experiences that blend art and function with locally sourced materials and crafts. As architects and designers, we have the potential to create spaces that feel as organic and welcoming as the communities they serve.

Bengaluru International Airport has turned architecture into an experience. With over 9 kilometers of rattan woven into stunning pods, the space becomes more than a transit point. It invites you to pause, marvel, and feel connected. Imagine if our civic spaces in the Philippines could evoke this sense of wonder. Using our local materials and cultural touchstones, we could design public spaces that inspire and elevate daily life, inviting people into a living expression of Philippine artistry.
