RECOMMENDATION
TO DESIGNER
A challenge is to design a house units
whether it is a Low-cost, mid, or a High-end unit. A
design that is sustainable and follows with the
standard dimension for the comfortability and
safety of the end users.

TO CONTRACTOR
home is a place where family lives for the
rest of their lives. Standard materials and a good
quality of construction must be a challenge. For no
one knows when are calamities will occur at least,
they have homes to shelter them.

TO FUTURE DESIGNER
As the population of the city/country
continues to grow, a more housing programs will
be implemented. A challenge is to seek or search
for a design and an approach base on what the
past and current problems occurred in most
subdivision.
