Lugar: Essays On Philippine Heritage And Architecture by Augusto F. Villalon

"LUGAR: Essays on Philippine Heritage and Architecture is a collection of essays that takes an inward look at how Philippine architecture expresses the culture that created it, and journeys through history to investigate the cultural influences that have indelibly marked Filipino architecture and built environment that defines today’s Filipino lifestyle and the national psyche. The book takes a look at the spaces that have been lovingly treasured or allowed to disintegrate into memory. This series of essays celebrates the uniqueness of Filipino culture as expressed through its built environment, the vanishing record of the country’s priceless cultural and natural heritage. Book design is by artist Felix Mago Miguel with illustrations in watercolor by Ferdinand Doctolero." -Excerpts from the publisher's website.
