D. As to Building Aesthetics

The mansion of Camsur Watersports Complex has a Spanish-colonial (Mestizo) architectural character, with the use of arches and brown colored roofs. Whereas other structures like the trailer homes and eco-village embody a green architectural character. The structures in Caribbean Waterpark has a post-modern style.

E. As to Building Strength and Durability

Reinforced concrete is a very apparent material being used to construct the structures in recreation and watersports parks. Other materials used for construction also include timber, glass, cobble stones, sand stone, pebbles, ceramic tiles, galvanized iron, and steel.

F. As to Building Engineering and Utility System

Appropriate electrical and water system and communication lines are established for a functional and well-constructed building. Air conditioning is also provided to selected private and public areas.

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT 4.2 INTERVIEW

PAGE 92

The researcher was able to conduct an informal interview with Arch. Alfie Orceo who has designed Recreational facilities from Cebu to Davao, Arch. Roger Andre T. Aguilar, UAP, the researchers project consultant, and Ms. Michelle C. Salon, Natures Village Sales and Marketing Associate. This discussion intends to gather ideas and data that the researcher cannot obtain through other forms of research instruments.

The researcher has prepared questions based from the statement of the problem and these are the questions the researcher raised from each of them:

As to Site Development

1. What do you think is the appropriate site planning concept to use in this master development project?

Arch. Orceo Plan a schematic flow of activities in the site so that there is a clear interaction between the users and the site. There must be a tour package, so that the guests will not get confused to which activity to attend to.

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT Arch. Arguilar

PAGE 93

It can be centralized planning having one main structure that will connect all the supporting structures.

Ms. Salon The site must be located at an area by the coast or near the beach perhaps.

As to Building Function

1. For the Youth Camp, what are your suggested facilities/activities to be provided?

The researcher summarized the answers given by them and these are as follows.

Arch. Alfie Orceo Plot the structures to create a more holistic approach to the project. Add or delete some facilities and activities which are too common and unnecessary like the basketball, volleyball, soccer, bowling and badminton. I suggest the Zorb (putting a human inside an inflatable ball and letting him/her play along the water) which is now a fad, and also put up ATV rides.

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT

PAGE 94

A Ceres bus roughly accommodates up to 50 passengers. Make sure that your spaces can cater to as much as 50 persons (minimum space requirements).

Arch. Aguilar There should be a good restaurant that caters to all clients of the placefrom adventure seekers to groups having their events in the place.

Ms. Salon For outdoors, provide jet skiing/ wakeboarding, banana boat ride, basketball, volleyball, and tennis courts. For indoors, activities may

include badminton and swimming.

As to Building Aesthetics

1. In terms of its architectural character, for you what is the most suitable character to be applied?

2. What are the design motifs that you would suggest for this project?

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT Arch. Orceo

PAGE 95

I agree on your idea of Neo-Vernacular architecture so that you can complement the eco-projects in Silay. I suggest you should check out Bali architecture, which is quite similar to Neo-Vernacular. You should focus on Neo-vernacular architecture as your design motif. Neo-vernacular architecture, which is a contemporary Filipino

architecture will be the character to be used in this project.

Arch. Aguilar I would go for a more modern design utilizing green architectural applications. The design motif should highlight the element of water since the place is a watersport center.

Ms. Salon Maybe neo-vernacular (Filipino contemporary) - Silay City is known for its heritage sites, it would be good to adopt a theme very much connected to its image.

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT Other Suggestions and Recommendations Arch. Orceo

PAGE 96

Your survey must show the viability of the respondents acceptance to the project. According to our conducted survey in Cebu, it is the Chinese and Koreans who are fond of these types of activities that you are proposing. It is indeed a good tourist attraction. Provide a related literature of existing projects probably two from the local and one from the international. Arch. Aguilar (Add a) man-made lake. Research some more on cable design efficiency. There should be technical considerations as to direction and distances.

4.3 LIBRARY TECHNIQUES

As to Site In site development planning, it is necessary to consider the sites natural and visual features. In Organizing the site, the features and views of the site shall be maximized by utilizing and incorporating the natural attributes of site. The design of the site development plan shall also reflect on locating the

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT

PAGE 97

spaces, parking, structures, and other facilities of the project with consideration of the sites natural aspects.

This concept to be used in the organization and planning of the site development shall be cluster type. Clustering allows dynamism and active flow of relationship between the user and the site. The clustered type of plan allows such air ventilation to disperse.

As to Building Function There should be a careful planning the active facilities such that there is a clear and natural interaction between the spectators and performers. In planning the recreational spaces, there must be a mixture of formal and informal areas that will suite the social development of the users. The major structure which is the Clubhouse shall cater the needs of the users by coming up with a well functional plan allowing a good flow of activities within the building.

As to Building Aesthetics The researcher shall use this concept, Modern-Asian Architecture as a basis for the building character and aesthetics. The design of the building shall adopt also to the local climate, the culture and materials.

LA CONSOLACION COLLEGE-ARFIEN DEPARTMENT As to Building Technology

PAGE 98

Steel framing method will be used for the construction of the roof using elements that consist of combinations of steel beams, steel girders, and steel columns, joined together at their intersections. Reinforced concrete shall also be used on structural supports of the building.

As to Building Utilities System Cable systems shall be used for the watersports cable park which will be the main feature of the project. Infiltration systems are essential in the site. It gives an overview that these are needed and shall be used in the project. A hydraulic pump shall be used to pump out water from the Imbang Creek. Also, Water Infiltration systems will be used to recycle and reuse water for consumption.
