520 _aThe book is a glimpse at Francisco Mañosa's architecture and architectural style. The most outspoken champion of an indigenous architecture, Mañosa has consistently explored new expressions of traditional vernacular forms, and many of his projects to apply new technology to familiar native materials such as bamboo, nipa and rattan. He not only reuses vernacular forms and materials, but in the process achieves a transformation. The book is divided into seven sections: houses, churches, commemorative design, resorts/hotels, institutions, international expositions, and industrial design. It also highlights his humble beginning and his design and architectural firm.
