CAZA proposes a new government center in Victorias City

CAZA’s proposal for Victorias New Government Center (VNGC) in Philippines is a 6000 sqm building set within a five-phase masterplan design comprising retail, housing, innovation, and arts programming. Following a metabolic design process, the structure is arranged around four distinctive towers, two of which harvest rainwater and two that exchange and ventilate air. Erected upon a concrete frame with integrated flood retention cisterns, the five-storey building is covered with a solar paneled roof and wrapped in a facade made of green metal pipes that filter water into terraced planters.
