Cube Is full of potential fashion designers and artisans therefore gaining Its title as the "Creative City' of the Philippines by the London based "Creative Cities Campaign. " This campaign alms to preserve, promote, and develop the exalting potential creative mindset of a chosen city. Living up to the standards of this campaign are schools Inclined to the arts and a fashion Institute would add up to this fulfillment as we have several internationally acclaimed fashion designers.
RATIONALE
Fashion schools will improve the acceptance of our local fashion designers and artisans professionally through proper certification of educational attainment. An institution duly credited and recognized by the academic society will boost the fashion indus
...try in Cube and hopefully pioneer in the whole Philippines. Existing fashion schools in the Philippines have recently branched out to other regions of the country hoping to cultivate potential fashion designers. Their curriculum strictly focuses on clothing design.
There are also other schools offering courses which are related to fashion namely: make-up, styling, and fashion hydrotherapy. The fashion schools in the Philippines specifically in Cube city cater only to the involvement of designing skills without the incubation of these designs. On the other hand, the training for artisans only revolve around the technical skills of production without the exposure of working with designers. Combining these two elements in one facility creates a unique academic system which promotes sustainability among students.
Educational attainment In the field of the arts have unfortunately long been neglected and seen only a
a hobby In the Philippines. Its Is only up until now where schools focusing on the arts have sprouted all through out the country. This Is due to the uprising digital and commercial age.

This imposes the need to create additional spaces that maximize their learning experience. The proponents of this study intend to design a facility tailored to accommodate the spatial needs of a fashion design institute which takes advantage of learning opportunities. The proponents of this study also intend to correlate the flow of curricular activities and spaces required to attain maximum efficiency of both the architecture of the institute and the curriculum/educational system to be adapted.
Thus, this study aspires to answer the following questions:
- What are the factors to consider in designing the proposed project?
- How do spaces interact with each other?
- What configuration of spaces is most efficient
for both indoor and outdoor circulation considering curricular activities and institutional operations?

Pages 362-384 Copyright 2008, panted in London, United Kingdom: Thames and Hudson Post-Digital Architecture is not without a digital component. It is very much a synthesis of the virtual, the actual, the biological, the Cyprian.
Cyberspace has insinuated itself into our existence, at a very scale and at every turn. Plastics is the
study of simplicity and complexity. It includes the ovations attempt to define complexity,; the rise and fall of human cultures, the behavior of the markets ND the operation of computers that are designed or programmed to evolve strategies - solving problems. Above all, these architectures seek to simplify, amplify or facilitate and make visible the complex entanglement of the contemporary space. First, we must establish an understanding of the activity of 'design' and the ontology of the designer'. So Post-Digital Design must attempt to be immune to sophist argument of style and good taste.
More than that, Post-Digital 'is relativistic, operates on both a local and global level and is constructed from a genius loci that includes not Just anthropometric site conditions but also deep ecological pathways, mnemonic, psycho geography and narrative. It is importance to illustrate some its spatial potential. Any design work done in the twenty-first century must be sustainable in some way. Also sustainability and indeed ethics.
