Batangas Forest City: A different kind of urban 'jungle'

WILLIAM Ti Jr., principal architect of WTA Architecture and Design Studio, is a strong believer in what is called social architecture, which he said was 'about helping to build communities.'

'It's about creating hyper-local communities and facilities; barrier-free spaces that allow for freedom of movement; social-scale infrastructure that helps connect our communities; [and] social responsiveness that embraces architecture's role in nation-building,' he explained to Build & Design.
