Tondo Manila South, Along Pasig River
2094

Philippine population exploded from 100 million in 2015
to 200 million in 2080. The government was forced to build
skyscrapers that will hold most of the population (around 25,000
people each) called Barangays.

Historical buildings and informal settlements are destroyed one by one
to make way for these skyscrapers to be built around the Greater Manila Area.

The year is 2094.50 years after the Third World War in the Pacific Theatre.
The battle of the Western and Eastern powers had the Philippines in ruins.
None of them won the war.

10 years after the horrific event, the Philippines was rebuilt. Economic
performance gradually increased, and the population rose from 120 million to
250 million in just a span of 70 years.

Supertall buildings called "Barangays" were built to provide more residential
space, especially in the National Capital Region, where displaced residents
started building their informal settlements after the war.

The first "Barangay," governed by a "Datu" was built in the north of Pasig river,
where the old Kingdom of Tondo was founded. Later, more and more of these buildings
were built, and informal settlements were forcefully destroyed by the police.

Corruption within these "Barangays" are prevalent as only the elite can control their
resources. Hidden illegal drug laboratories are managed by the politicians in the upper
section and supplies the poor in the lower section, further destroying their lives.

This building represents the social pyramid that still exist in our current society.
The Upper, Middle, and Lower Classes were divided into sections, each having different
roles in the society. The slum areas were built as if they were trying to climb the
social pyramid, while the authorities do everything to prevent them on doing so.

Despite the advancements in technology and the economic improvements in our country,
millions are still in poverty. Inefficient handling of funds resulted in the decrease
of funds allocated for education, health, and agriculture, while most of the politicians
spend most of our public funds to fulfill their lavish lifestyles.

This project represents the current social crisis not only in the Philippines, but also
in most of the countries around the world. Even in the modern world where food supplies
are enough for everyone, yet many still can't afford to provide for themselves. Where
information is easily accessible, yet many are ignorant enough not to notice the issues
we have in our society.
