Description
Summary:	"Arkitekturang Filipino: Spaces and Places in History is an attempt to present and express an alternative approach to understanding architecture. Contrary to traditional notion of architecture as a process, which takes root from its interactions with the society and natural environment. Through the lens of five critical categories such as: (1)Architecture as Signifier of Places and Settings, (2)Architecture as Adaptation and Adjustment to Environment, (3) Architecture as a Process of creativity, (4)Architecture as Mode of Signification, and (5)Architecture as Purveyor of Order, Philippine architecture is emancipated from the repressive grand narratives of diachronic periodization and the parade of master and masterworks to discursively deal with social, cultural and political issues."-- CD back cover.
