Inspiring!!!

        In this world,there are people who are born with unique talents and skills. Being a college architect student I want to make a record too in the future.I have read lots of books and article about different famous and well-known architects. All of them are really great in the field of their career. But among all them all, there are three of them that truly made an impact to me. They have stand-out among them all.I want to emulate this three particular architects.
        First on my list is non-other than Francisco Manosa. Francisco Manosa is a filipino architect. He gave a big contribution for everybody especially us Filipinos. He prove that his priority is still the Philippines. I still remembered his touching line of saying this "I just want to design for the Filipino." I want to innovate and and invent designs that can identify with Filipino." This was a very inspiring line that we can hear by a true Filipino. One of his famous works is The Nipa Hut Mansion. Through his work, it really shows his love for our country. He also helps three hundred residences, forty churches of different faith as well as two hundred resorts and hotels.
          The second architect that I also admire is Leandro Locsin. (1928-1994) He is also a Filipino architect like Francisco. He is also an artist and interior designer. Leandro Locsin is really different from the first architect that I had mentioned earlier. He is different because he is known for his use of concrete, floating volume of design. He uses simplistic designs for all of his project. One of his famous work that I really love is the round chapel with the altar in the middle. He designed it using his own concrete design.
          The next and the last architect that I like is different from the two. He is a foreign architect. He is Alvar Aalto. The manifestation of his his work is in specific architectonic concerns element, issues of thought and formal expression. Alvar Aalto's work is quiet good too. he uses a unique sensitivity to the dynamic of the sinous element in architecture. The best of his work that I like is The Bell Tower.
          Hopefully, someday I can also be achieve what they had achieve.
