Abstract
The study takes action to the problem of water drought that greatly affects the agricultural
crops among the provinces in the Philippines by designing a water bank development
plan. The new design shall use concepts like hydroponics, horticulture, and biophilic
architecture. The master development plan shall cater to the needs of various provinces
in the Philippines, especially those in the rural areas.
The province picked for the application of the design is Quezon, specifically Barangay
Hondagua, Lopez City, Quezon. The city has been one of the most affected provinces of
the agricultural drought because of the lack of water supply to help aid their rice crops
and even their daily supply of water.
With the proposed water reservoir development complex, it shall act a source of supply
for the municipality of Lopez, Quezon, aiding them in their water supply and agricultural
economy.
