Outpost

The Outpost is a farmhouse located in Bulacan. Conceived as an "outpost" on its completely flat and open site, its form and disposition were primarily a reaction to its isolated condition.

Like a treehouse for adults, the building's prismatic form offers both view and privacy. Each level of the house presents a different configuration of space, thus creating a dynamic experience. An angled opening serves as a front porch and main entry to the house, while a "watchtower" projects out of its rear elevation, allowing its occupants to enjoy the afternoon sun. Elevated for security, the farmhouse maximizes views while maintaining privacy; internally motivated yet externally aware. While exploiting the views might seem obvious, the architecture takes this agenda to a new level and let its inhabitants interact with their environment.
