BADJAO COMMUNITY RESILENT - Better Light Diffusion and UV
HOUSING Protection.
Zamboanga City

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The Badjao or the “sea gypsies” are
more vulnerable to economic hardship when
they cannot fish or gather seaweed to sell,
which is the primary source of their earnings on
Cawa-Cawa. Their culture is also deeply
connected with a seafaring tradition. However,
contrary to popular impression, many Badjaos FOR WALLS and STILTS: Pre-cast Concrete
live in permanent stilt-houses with tall post
made of light materials over the water and - Design-Build Efficiency
engaging in fishing. - Reduced Costs
- Environment Resistant
CONCEPT OF RESILIENCE IN ARCHITECTURE
In material science, resilience is the - Aesthetically Versatile
ability of a material to absorb energy when it is - Thermal Efficient
deformed elastically, and to release that energy - Low Maintenance
upon unloading. Resilience in the built
environment is the capacity to adapt to
changing conditions and to maintain or regain
functionality and vitality in the face of stress or
disturbance and especially important in the
face of natural disasters such as hurricanes or
tsunami.

As climate change and global warming

advances, there is an increasing potential for
FOR ROOFS: Asphalt Shingles
gradually rising sea levels, along with more
frequent and severe hurricanes & flooding, - Beauty
heavy rain, earthquakes & tsunami, and other - Affordable and Reliable
natural disasters. Proper countermeasures - Variety of styles, textures and colors to
against these natural disasters in terms of choose from
architecture are needed. - Cost-effective and durable
- Easy to maintain.
MATERIAL CONCEPT
The project will made tremendous progress in
improving the quality of life of the Badjaos

FOR WINDOWS: Polycarbonate Greenhouse

- Better Insulation
- Last Longer
- More Shapes and Sizes available
- Cheaper to buy
