CONCEPT
The design evolves further with the integration of different strategies and innovations. Marikina is hailed as the “Shoe Capital of the Philippines,” the town of shoemakers and honed by years in shoe manufacturing. The design is inspired by the form of “footsteps”, representing the two main buildings intertwined by elevated walkways depicting the “shoelaces” visible from top view. Its unique form helps achieve connectivity and continuity within the site.
