Paris calls, carrying a piece of our archipelago with it. I’m proud to share that our work is a finalist in Createurs Design Awards.

While this journey is personal, its truest meaning feels universal. It speaks to the quiet, persistent act of creating something from nothing—a feeling that resonates across cultures and geographies. It's a testament to the mentors who guide us, the communities that inspire us, and the simple, human need to make meaning.

To anyone who has ever nurtured a fragile idea into reality, this moment is for you, too. It is a gentle reminder that our unique perspectives, when shared, can connect us in the most beautiful ways. Here’s to the spirit of creation that lives within all of us, and to the bridges our art can build.

With immense gratitude.

Whispers of the ocean and the promise of tranquility guide us forward. We're excited to move into the next stage—transforming our conceptual vision for Habagat into detailed construction documentation. Where the southwest monsoon meets paradise in Bantayan Island, magic is in the making. Stay tuned.

From diving into the deep to designing at the top—our design principal does everything with style (and a few international awards to prove it). Wishing the genius behind our best ideas a birthday as epic as his dive stories. Don’t stay underwater too long, boss—we’ve got deadlines!

Last week, we celebrated 8 years of our design journey! Honestly, I’m feeling a mix of emotions as I reflect on the hard work and dedication that has brought us here. It’s been a challenging road, but knowing we’ve made a difference in people’s lives through architecture makes it all worthwhile.Inspiring others and contributing to our communities has been our driving force, and I couldn’t have done it without the amazing support from all of you. Your belief in us means the world.A special thank you to all the wonderful weirdos of team dada—you are the heartbeat of this company. Your talent and dedication inspire me every day, and I am so grateful to have you by my side.Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of this journey. As I look ahead, I can’t help but wonder about the path forward in a world where values sometimes seem lost. Here’s to many more years of creativity and connection—whatever that may look like. ❤️
