Bahay Kubo

I proudly presents to you, the modern bahay kubo of the Philippines. A Bahay Kubo is a symbol of Philippine culture as it depicts the most nurtured Filipino value of called 'bayanihan,' which attributes to a spirit of collective unity or effort to accomplish an objective. In fact, bahay kubo is the national shelter of the Philippines. Bahay Kubo is a square shaped house with no divisions, just a door and windows. It is built using local materials such as wood, bamboo and nipa grass. It is a Philippine icon and it represents the Filipino culture. ... The Bahay Kubo displays the architectural intelligence of the native Filipino during pre-Hispanic times.
