Corazon

The design bears a sense of place—the soul of the country.

Envisioned as an architecture landmark in San Mateo Rizal, the Mall will have a façade inspired by the
wavy silhouette of Mountain Sierra Madre, the country’s largest mountain range.

The roofline will use longspan metal and a glue-laminated (timber) structure. Warm, tropical tones make
the structure blend with the landscape

The plan reflects the warmth of Filipinos

The ridged roofline of the sprawling mall echoes the outline of the surrounding mountains.The warm,
tropical tones of the surface treatments let the structure blend with the landscape—an organic
perspective

Cozy ambiance

The interiors will echo another cultural symbol, the bamboo.Instead of using traditional bamboo The
project will make prodigious use of sustainable glulam or structural engineered wood in the interiors

The flooring will use locally sourced material, lahar from Mount Pinatubo. It will mimic a terrazzo or
marble finish for an understated elegant look.

The pitched ceilings will create the grandeur of the outdoors. “They reflect the organic shape of the
mountains. The different heights lend the feeling of dynamism and blending with the landscape. When
you enter the space, you are in awe
