The problem is the "untapped economic opportunities", wherein if we compare the Esports revenue of the Philippines to other countries, we are lagging behind. To be able to tap the Economic Opportunities, here's the proposal: A 2,500-seating capacity Esports Arena with Extended Reality Game Center, and 300 Esports Lodging and 120 Training Bootcamps.

The Philippines is among the countries that are active and good in online games. However, despite of being one of the countries known for having top players, we are still lagging behind regarding tapping the economic opportunitiesoftheesportsindustry.
Located in the central business district of Taguig City, Bonifacio Global City with a total of 26,273 sqm lot size which makes it a top place for catering large tournament events. The main objective of the project is to design a spaceforgrowingdemandofPhilippinegamingindustry

Site Climate Quadrant
The climate quadrant shows that the Quadrant A and B is ideal location for Esports Arena since it is adjacent to public parking and has a god access for private users. While the Quadrant C and D is ideal for ExtendedRealityGameParksinceitisthemostsuitableinallocatingthe technologies away from the sunlight. Moreover, it is the closest area from electronic waste. Lastly, the Quadrant E and F is an ideal location for hotel and boot camp since it is adjacent to residential buildings, and is away from esports arena that could disrupt the residences during tournament.














The project is a development of metaverse world where players around the world can gather and seek adventure. The metaverse is a virtual, interconnected, and immersive digital universe that encompasses various virtual worlds, augmented reality spaces, and online communities. It goes beyond individual virtual reality experiences and creates a shared, persistent, and multi-dimensional space where users can interact, socialize, and engage with eachotheranddigitalcontent.

TThe project is for them to enhance and hone their skills better through providing multifunctional sports facilities to accommodate several types of sport that most Filipinos are taking part in. With this, the project KAYU is proposed as a Multifunctional Sports Arena that canbethesecondhomeofFilipinoAthletes.Itwas inspired by the Tagalog words “Kayumanggi” that pertains to the skin complexion of Filipinos and “Tayo” which means “Us”, this is to embody the symbolismthatFilipinosareresilientandnoteasily swayed by difficulties, where they can fight for the country and raise the Philippine flag with courage, strength, and determination. The project will cater to 5,000 seating capacity that can be used for training athletes for the Olympics or used for Multifunctional Events for Sports. Located at 1455, Argonaut Highway, Subic Freeport Zone, Zambales,Philippines.

The project location was chosen specifically because Subic it is easily accessible from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and serves as the second-best choice in developing a facility that will host sports and other events because it is a leading tourist destination in the country and is known as a go-to place for national and international sporting events as it provides a good opportunity that will attract commercial and the freeport stakeholders’ interest. It is deemed fit and appropriate to build a safe zone to cater to aspiring athletes that will assure a better paradigminthepost-pandemicera

Building Performance
Each unit of Dormitory was designed to float if a Tsunami or Storm Surge occur around the location of the site.







While the Exterior of the stadium is powered by a technology that allows the walls to close in case of emergency. The Automatic Wall shutter is built to withstand flooding and prevent ashfall penetration during euption.
The Arena is also convertible to evacuation in case of emergency. Part of the Arena serves as an amphibious floating evacuation area, at the same time the exterior wall is an automatic wall shutter.

and equipment, where they can rest and unwind during their training period, and also provide spaces for sports that are not usually given enough attention before. The designers believe that through the project that we envision, we can support our fellow Filipino athletes in overcoming the hurdles that they may face on their journeyinrepresentingourcountry.

Through architecture, we can pave the way for them to have a better chance of raising our flag. Since Subic Bay Free Port Zone is suitable for development and the special economic zone is also adjacent to a body of water the building inspiration was based on ‘Clam’ which is a type of sea creature with a shell in two parts that can close together tightly. The clam feature was incorporated in the façade of the arena,mimickingtheclamshelltexture



and formation pattern to the roof to give characteristics to the development and a skylight pattern inspired by the carbonate calcium atoms which is a clamshell material. Combining with building technologies and add-up features is the solar lamp that is situated around the facility, kinetic pavement, greywater system, and the like to accumulate enough energy to help sustain the development.
