fig. 2.5 Front Elevation 1:500 Elevation The façade is a two-storey massive heavy rectangular travertine block, which houses the auditorium. It sits on an offset podium that continues to flow on its raised curvilinear ramp that extends throughout the perimeter of the octagonal pool. Deep concave cantilevers – arched beams that continue upwards support the monumental heavy massing block. Looking across the section, there is an illusion of sweeping concrete vaults rotated horizontally across the entrance. They act as a primary structure of the podium on all three sides. The block suspends 12 meters over the terrace of the lobby. It appears to be floating above the podium that is perceived as the base of the building; which on a distance, seem like it is rooted to the ground. The arching ramp is said to be Manila’s answer to Niemeyer’s Brasilia. The raised element was a response to the high sea levels on the reclaimed land but hence critically objectified by the society as an elitist view of the art culture. 29 The front elevation of the building gives a picturesque reflection on the pool during daytime as if it is a piece of sculpture behind the clear blue sky. By night, the view of the façade changes with the fountain that jets out water as high as 30 meters, which resembles a miniature Las Vegas fountain show as underwater lights illuminate the pool. 29 AD Classics: Parish Of The Holy Sacrifice / Leandro V.
