In this week’s episode, explore a unique home nestled in El Nido, Palawan.
Discover a 1,500 square feet residence built on a 1000 square feet footprint, blending seamlessly with its natural surroundings. Designed by architect Justin Guiab, the home exemplifies a harmonious coexistence with nature, featuring open spaces and humble materials like wood, clay, rammed earth, and concrete.
With no distinct main door, entry to the house is fluid, inviting natural light and ventilation. The design follows the land’s natural slope, enhancing the connection with the outdoors. An open layout combines kitchen, dining, and living areas, anchored by a large multi-functional table. This communal space not only fosters practicality but also promotes unity with its surroundings.
Thoughtful elements abound, from the water source to sustainable building practices.
Water sourced from a nearby spring, rich in minerals, serves the household needs, while a pocket garden with swamp taros aids in natural water filtration. The roof's cogon grass insulation and oculus design reflect local wisdom and sustainability, ensuring comfort and longevity.
Throughout the home, simplicity meets functionality.
The bedroom features minimalist furnishings and indirect lighting, echoing natural ambient light patterns. In the bathroom, a carved rock basin stands testament to craftsmanship and connection to the land.
For architect Justin Guiab and his family, this home is a sanctuary.
It's a place where design meets purpose, where every detail echoes a commitment to living in harmony with nature. Join us as we explore a space where thoughtful design and natural beauty intertwine seamlessly.
As always, special thanks to the homeowners opening up their home to us.

So many aspects of our lives has been “westernised” & “urbanised”, it’s so nice to actually see you seek inspiration from your roots for a better, fulfilling way of living. God Bless you and your loved ones.

Maybe it's just me but watching the video makes me so emotional. For all the right reasons of course. It's just the built composition is so well thought and Justin spoke to the place, the house, and anything in between to ensure there's harmony and unity between the dwellers and the surroundings. Isn't that lovely?
As an architect I Love the open plan & uses of filipino indegenous materials. My main concerns: the lifespan of organic materials & the infiltration of mosquitoes, termites & insects.

You live the dharma in your everyday life. Fate will be kind to your family. This mindfulness will bring in bliss and positivity into your home. However, the best thing I got from this video is the value of co-existence that you teach to your son. He will grow up grounded in humility and experience life deeply connected to nature. A house of beauty and minimalism!

This area is rarely reached by typhoons. And if it rains, they just probably stay in the bedroom and let the water in the open areas just like in the olden days.

I am building a house on Talikud Island as a foreigner. I can't own the land, so it is in the names of my two Philippino daughters. Nice house and I agree about the none native trees. If you want to fast, choose Bagrass. My house will be radically different.

I like your resting chair. Where can i buy that chair??? I know your house not yet finished n still need to paint walls to make it colorful n beautiful. But I like your idea for making it so simple. You are a nature lover thats why you choce to live there.
I hope there is like a follow up, i am really curious on how does the house withstand typhoon
i love how he took local wisdom on how to make the roof too. and ensured to use native wood instead of non-native. this is how good architecture should be.
