With so many pieces that I have to consider my gems, this one stands out the most.
Year 2013 when an orphanage who give shelter to the Street Children was wiped out due to the World strongest Typhoon ever recorded "ST HAYIAN/ YOLANDA local name"
And this building I managed to construct as a great replacement to their ruined home.
The GEM is behind the making and it was just a pure joy to me. It was birthed through the childrens dream. They were the one who do the workshop and conceptualize on how their HOME should look like and a Storm tested one. You will see that its almost open that is because when the storm comes they will just open all the windows to passthrough the wind. Guess what, these street childrens who used to live homeless just made this building that once their dream to win "the World Architectural Award 2017"
Picture i took a night before turnover ceremony.
Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. It is truly heartwarming to see such an awesome thing come from such a terrible chaos <3
It is! Thank you maam!
