What is Lantern House: Tropical Vernacular Design about?
The Lantern House blends tropical, vernacular and modern design styles. It utilizes local materials like capiz, stone and bamboo to connect to the past, while incorporating modern technologies for comfort. Openings are oriented north for cross ventilation and natural light. The interior and exterior harmonize with capiz windows and a cathedral ceiling bringing the outside in. Though small in space, clever design maximizes light and airflow, exemplifying the tropical vernacular concept.
