PHILIPPINE CONSULATE / by Jun Soliven

Philippine Consulate
San Francisco, CA

In 2013, the Philippine Consulate engaged us to remodel the ground floor (street level) function room, now called the Kalayaan Hall, into a multi-purpose hall where exhibits, lectures and other functions can be held.
 
The Consulate basement was proposed to become a museum to display Filipino arts and other related exhibits.  Aside from elevator access, we proposed a contemporary grand staircase from the ground floor to the basement.
