Recession-proof architectural design

MANILA, Philippines - In today’s fast-paced world, it’s not surprising that it may even be simpler to build a home with modern architectural features than to operate the latest mobile phone. Especially with companies like JAO Builders who specialize in the ultimate sophistication – simplicity.

Pioneering the “One Stop Shop” program with its impressive team of professionals for stress and worry-free home building, JAO Builders is known for its effortless client servicing starting from planning to the placing of the last kitchen tile.

This ease in home-building also translates to design as revealed by its in-house architect, architect Reynaldo Mendoza Jr., UAP who says that in this time of recession, modern architecture is more preferred by new homeowners.

“Modern architecture is all about big windows, open spaces, and straight lines,” says Mendoza. “Achieving the simplest form and eliminating unnecessary details is the goal.”

Gaining popularity after the Second World War, modern architecture began as a dominant style for institutional and corporate buildings. It goes by the principle that the materials used and the functional requirements are what determine the result of a home being built.

“With modern architecture, form follows function. It is a minimalist approach that somehow results to structures that can be as iconic as a city landmark,” adds Mendoza. “It is also very playful and flexible given its basic palettes – from the plain colors to the sleek simple aesthetics, you can take it very far when it comes to layering its look.”

And in this time wherein budget is everything, future homeowners can rely on this kind of design delivered by JAO Builders, as it mirrors the same customer-friendly features that the house developer offers. “As a company that offers value for money through its One Stop Shop Program as well as no down payment incentives to lot owners, we usher modern architecture also for its recession-proof qualities,” states Mendoza.

He goes on to explain that a Modern Architectural house has unique features that can save a homeowner lots of money for maintenance. “For one, the gutters are invisible – they are not exposed as in most houses – this makes them less prone to repairs since they are protected from extreme weather conditions.”

Mendoza also makes mention of the fact that these kinds of houses only use plain colors which, as an architectural fact, is easier to maintain compared to more unconventional house colors such as green or pink. All in all, having a budget-friendly design by a budget-friendly developer such as JAO Builders makes a tandem that eases living in your dream home for years to come.
