    Pablo Antonio

    Pablo S. Antonio (January 25,

    1902 June 14, 1975 was a Filipinoarchitect. A

    pioneer of modern Philippine architecture, The

    was recognized in some quarters as the

    foremost Filipino modernist architect of his

    time. He was conferred the rank and title

    ofNational Artist of thePhilippines by PresidentFerdinand Marcos in

    1976.

    Early life

    Antonio was born in Binondo, Manila in 1902.

    He was orphaned by the age of 12, and had to

    work in the daytime in order to finish his high

    school education at night. He studied

    architecture at the University of Santo

    Tomas but dropped out of school in order to

    assist in the design and construction of

    the Legislative Building (now, the National

    Museum of the Philippines).

    Ramon Arevalo, the engineer in charge of the

    Legislative Building project, funded Antonio's

    education at the University of London. He

    completed a five-year architecture course in

    three years, graduating in 1927.

    Works

    Antonio first came into prominence in 1933 with

    the construction of the Ideal Theateralong

    Avenida Rizal in Manila. His work caught the

    eye of the founder of the Far Eastern

    University in Manila, Nicanor Reyes, Sr., who

    was looking to build a school campus that was

    modern in style. Between 1938 to 1950, he

    designed several buildings on the university

    campus in the Art Decostyle. The FEU campus

    is considered as the largest ensemble of

    surviving Art Deco architecture in Manila, and in

    2005, it received an Honorable Mention citation

    from the UNESCO for the body's 2005 Asia-

    Pacific Heritage Awards for Culture Heritage

    Conservation.

    Antonio also designed the White Cross

    Sanitarium (1938) along Santolan Road in San

    Juan City, and the Manila Polo Club (1950)

    in Makati City.[3]

    He likewise designed the

    Ramon Roces Publications Building (now

    Guzman Institute of Electronics) in Soler Street

    in Manila, the Capitan Luis Gonzaga Building,

    and the Boulevard-Alhambra (now called Bel-

    Air) Apartments Building in Roxas Boulevard &

    where Manila Bay Hostel is located on the 4th

    floor, this Bel-Air Apartments is near T. M. Kalaw

    Avenue & beside Miramar Hotel. Bel-Air

    Apartments building was designed by Pablo

    Santonio and built in 1937.[2]

    Apart from the Ideal Theater, Antonio also

    designed several other theaters in Manila,

    including the Life Theater, the Scala Theater,

    the Lyric Theater, and the Galaxy Theater. As of

    2008, only the Galaxy Theater remains standing,

    though it is threatened with demolition.

    Death

    Antonio died in Manila, Philippines on June 14, 1975 due to health reasons. The cause of his death is still

    not mentioned until after he died.

    Toms Mapa

    Toms Bautista Mapa (December 21, 1888 December 22, 1965) was the first registered Filipino

    architect. Born in Manila to Juan Mapa and Justina Bautista, he was one of the first Filipino scholars

    sent by the government to the United States during the American regime. He finished high school at

    Boone's Preparatory School in Berkeley, California, and graduated from Cornell University in 1911 with a

    degree in Architecture. Among his works include the Manila City Hall, Post Office Building, the St. La

    Salle Hall, and his own home on Taft Avenue. He was supervising architect for the Bureau of Public

    Works from 19181927, during which period he was in charge of important insular work, including the

    Nurses Home of the Philippine General Hospital, Training School Building of Normal School, and various

    provincial and municipal buildings.[1]

    Mapa married Rita Moya on November 3, 1916.[1]

    On January 25, 1925, he founded the Mapa Institute

    of Technology, a school specializing in architecture and engineering, using a run-down building in

    Carriedo Street on Quiapo, Manila. Retiring from public service, Mapa devoted himself to private

    practice since 1928, and in addition to heading his own construction company (MYT Construction

    Works,Inc.) was president of the Mapa Institute of Technology.[1]

    He died on December 22, 1965.

    Misericordia Street in Sta. Cruz, Manila was renamed to Tomas Mapua Street in his honor.

    Juan Marcos Arellano

    Juan Marcos Arellano y de Guzmn (April 25, 1888 - December 5,

    1960), orJuan M. Arellano, was a Filipinoarchitect, best known forManila's Metropolitan

    Theater(1935), Legislative Building (1926; now houses the National Museum of the Philippines),

    the Manila Central Post Office Building (1926), the Cebu Provincial Capitol (1937), the Bank of the

    Philippine Islands Cebu Main Branch (1940), and the Jones Bridge.

    Life and works

    Juan M. Arellano was born on April 25, 1888 in Manila, Philippines to Luis C. Arellano and Bartola de

    Guzmn. He attended the Ateneo Municipal de Manila and graduated in 1908. His first passion

    was painting and he trained under Lorenzo Guerrero, Toribio Antillon, and Fabian de la

    Rosa.[1]

    However, he pursued architecture and was sent to the United States as one of the

    first pensionados in architecture, after Carlos Barreto, who was sent to the Drexel Institute in 1908,

    Antonio Toledo, who went to Ohio State, and Toms Mapa, who went toCornell.

    Arellano went to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1911 and subssequently transferred

    to Drexel to finish his bachelor's degree in Architecture. He was trained in the Beaux Arts and

    subsequently went to work for George B. Post & Sons in New York City, where he worked forFrederick

    Law Olmsted, Jr.[2]

    He then returned to the Philippines to begin a practice with his brother, Arcadio. He later joined

    the Bureau of Public Works just as the last American architects, George Fenhagen and Ralph H. Doane,

    were leaving. He and Toms Mapa were then named as supervising architects. In 1927, he took a study

    leave and went to the United States where he was greatly influenced by Art Deco architecture.

    In 1930, he returned to Manila and designed the Manila Metropolitan Theater, which was then considered

    controversially moderne.[3]

    He also continued to act as a consulting architect for the Bureau of Public

    Works where he oversaw the production of the Manila's first zoning plan. In 1940, he and Harry Frost

    created a design forQuezon City, which was to become the new capital of the Philippines.

    It was during that time that he also designed the building that would house the United States High

    Commission to the Philippines, later the Embassy of the United States in Manila. He designed

    a demesne along the edge ofManila Bay, which featured a revival-style mansion that took advantage of

    the seaside vista.[4]

    The Americans instead opted for a federal-stylebuilding that ended up overpriced and

    uncomfortable.

    During World War II, the Legislative Building and Jones Bridge, were totally destroyed and the Post Office

    Building was severely damaged. While these structures were all reconstructed, his original designs were

    not followed and were considered poor replications.[5]

    Arellano retired in 1956 and went back to painting. In 1960, he exhibited his work at the Manila YMCA.

    Fernando H. Ocampo

    Fernando Hizon Ocampo was a FilipinoArchitect and Civil Engineer. Born August 7, 1897, in San

    Fernando, Pampanga, he was the son of Dr. Basilio Ocampo and Leoncia Hizon.

    One ofManila's renowned architects, Ocampo was educated at the Ateneo de Manila A.B., in

    1914; University of Santo Tomas, Civil Engineering, 1919; and University of Pennsylvania, Bachelor of

    Architecture, 1921. Following his graduation from the University of Pennsylvania, he worked in the office

    of Mr. Emile Perrot, an architect inPhiladelphia, and then spent two years traveling in Europe, giving

    particular attention to architectural designs. Returning to Manila he was for four years an assistant

    architect in the Bureau of Public Works. In 1927 he became associated with architect Tomas

    Arguelles and established Arguelles and Ocampo, architects.

    Many of Manila's finest business buildings and residences attest to Ocampo's ability as an architect and

    engineer. Among these are the Manila Cathedral; UST Central Seminary; the Arguelles, Paterno (later

    became Far Eastern Air Transport Inc. orFEATI), Ayala, Cu Unjieng and Cu Unjieng and Fernandez

    buildings; the Assumption Academy of Pampanga and the residence of Mr. Joaquin Baltazar, the latter

    having taken the first prize in the 1930 beautiful home contest. In 1929 and 1930 Ocampo was a member

    of the Board of Examiners for Architects in Manila and in addition to his private practice he became a

    member of the faculty of the School of Architecture at the University of Santo Tomas, Manila.

    Leandro Locsin

    Leandro V. Locsin (August 15, 1928 - November 15, 1994) was a

    Filipino architect, artist, and interior designer, known for his use ofconcrete, floating volume and simplistic

    design in his various projects. An avid collector, he was fond of modern painting and Chinese ceramics.

    He was proclaimed a National Artist of the Philippines for Architecture in 1990 by PresidentCorazon C.

    Aquino.

    Life and career

    Leandro V. Locsin was born on Aug 15, 1928 in Silay City, Negros Occidental, a grandson of the first

    governor of the province. He later studied at the De La Salle Brothers in 1935 before returning to Negros

    due to the Second World War. He returned to Manila to study Pre-Law, before shifting to pursue

    a Bachelor's Degree in Music at the University of Santo Tomas. Although he was a talented pianist, he

    later shifted again to Architecture, just a year before graduating. He was married to Cecilia Yulo, to which

    he had two children, one of whom is also an architect.

    The Main Building (Tanghalang Pambansa) of the Cultural Center of the Philippines, one of Locsin's most recognizable

    works.

    An art lover, he frequented the Philippine Art Gallery, where he met the curator, Fernando Zobel de

    Ayala, who recommended Locsin to the Ossorio family, who was planning to build a chapel in Negros.

    Unfortunately, when Frederic Ossorio left for the United States, the plans for the chapel were canceled.However, in 1955, then University of the Philippines, DilimanCatholicChaplain, Fr. John Delaney, S.J.

    commissioned Locsin to design a chapel that is open and can easily accommodate 1,000 people.

    The Church of the Holy Sacrifice is the first round chapel in the Philippines with the altar in the middle,

    and the first to have a thin shell concrete dome. The floor of the church was designed by Arturo Luz, the

    stations of the cross by Vicente Manansala and Ang Kiukok, and the cross by Napoleon Abueva, all of

    whom are now National Artists. Alfredo L. Juinio served as the building's structural engineer. Today, the

    church is recognized as a National Historical Landmark and a Cultural Treasure by the National Historical

    Institute and the National Museum respectively.

    In his visit to the United States, he met some of his influences, Paul Rudolph and Eero Saarinen. It was

    then he realized to use concrete, which was relatively cheap in the Philippines and easy to form, for his

    buildings. In 1969, he completed what is to be his most recognizable work, the Theater of Performing

    Arts (Now the Tanghalang Pambansa) of the Cultural Center of the Philippines. The marblefaade of the

    building is cantilevered 12 meters from the terrace by huge arching columns at the sides of the building,

    giving it the impression of floating. A large lagoon in front of the theatre mirrors the building during

    daylight, while fountains are illuminated by underwater lights by nighttime. The building houses four

    theaters, a museum of ethnographic and other temporary exhibits, galleries, and a library on Philippine art

    and culture. In 1974, Locsin designed the Folk Arts Theater, which is one of the largest single span

    buildings in the Philippines with a span of 60 meters. It was completed in only seventy-seven days, in

    time for the Miss UniversePageant. Locsin was also commissioned to build the Philippine International

    Convention Center, the country's premiere international conference building and the seat of the Vice

    Presidency.

    In 1974, he was commissioned to design the Ayala Museum, which housed the Ayala's art collection. It

    was known for the juxtaposition of huge blocks to facilitate the interior of the exhibition. Locsin was a

    close friend of the Ayalas. Before taking the board examination, he took his apprenticeship at Ayala and

    Company (Now the Ayala Corporation) and was even asked to design the f irst building in Ayala Avenue,

    and several of their residences. When the collection of the Ayala Museum was moved to its current

    location, the original was demolished, with Locsin's permission. The current building was dedicated in

    2004, and was designed by the L. V. Locsin and Partners, led by Leandro Y. Locsin, Jr. Most of Locsin's

    work has been inside the country, but in 1970, he designed the Philippine Pavilion of theWorld

    Expo in Osaka, Japan. His largest single work is the Istana Nurul Iman, the official residence of the Sultan

    of Brunei. Locsin also designed some of the buildings at the UP Los Baos campus. The Dioscoro Umali

    Hall, the main auditorium, is clearly an example of his distinct architecture, with its large canopy that make

    it resemble the main theatre of the CCP. Most of his work is concentrated on the Freedom Park, with the

    Student Union Building, once damaged by a fire, the Carillon, the Continuing Education Center and theauditorium. He also designed UPLB's Main Library, SEARCA Residences, and several structures at

    the National Arts Center(housing the Philippine High School for the Arts) situated at Mt. Makiling, Los

    Baos, Laguna. In 1992, he received the Fukuoka Asian Culture Prize from Fukuoka City.

    Locsin's last work, ironically, was also a church in Malaybalay, Bukidnon. Leandro V. Locsin died on Nov

    15, 1994 in Makati City. The campus ofDe La Salle-Canlubang, built in 2003 on a land donated by his

    family, was named after him.
