STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The municipal hall in the town of Mexico is situated at the town proper, facing the three-storey public
market and adjacent to main access road which causes excessive traffic. It could cater and serve the people
but not as suitable and accessible for every individual especially for persons with disability. Other offices
of the municipal hall are situated above a public market which covers the entire 3rdfloor wherein, the
ground floor is for wet and dry market while the second floor are salons and other general merchandise
making this area redundant to public. The legislative administration is located at the left perimeter of the
building which is supposedly the service entry making it hard to locate and not accessible to the public.
The police station is subnormal compared to the usual. The main entry of the municipal hall is used as
parking spaces for both workers and non-workers knowing that the municipal hall faces the main access
road and the public market that is busy and crowded. Tricycle terminals are located on both side of the
hall. During town fiesta, the terminal on the left side is being used as event center and as flea market which
extends to main entry. The right-side terminal also serves as the parking area for the workers, on-workers
and those who reside near municipal hall. The covered court is accessible to municipal hall, caters
municipal activities, public activities and as a new parking area as well.
The top purpose of the study is to meet functional programs, elaborate the needs, influence indoor and
outdoor activity and to produce convenience and accessible design solution for the new proposal. The
relocation of the municipal hall must be given a vital attention to aid the needs and recuperate the norms
of an ideal and potential government complex.

equipment, and support they need to excel in their job, with equal access to important workplace
elements, such as natural light, outside views, and space to talk privately.

Clean and healthy work environments with access to air, light, and water— and free of contaminants and
excessive noise. Flexibility: Easily adaptable workplaces that support varied work strategies and help
balance an individual’s work and home life—including systems and furnishings that
accommodate organizational change with minimal time, effort, and waste.

Occupant-adjustable temperature, ventilation, lighting, acoustic, and furniture systems providing personal
and group comfort, allowing people to control their workspace goes a long way toward satisfying their
needs and reducing complaints. Providing furniture and task lighting that occupants can reconfigure to
suit their work needs, and giving them the ability to adjust lighting levels, temperature, and ventilation
within the personal workspace will result in more satisfied and productive employees.
Sense of Place:

REVIEW OF RELATED LITIRATURE AND STUDIES
A. BACOOR GOVERNMENT CENTER
The
Bacoor Government Center or the Bacoor City Hall is a building which serves as the hall
of Bacoor, Cavite, Philippines.
The City Government of Bacoor is the gateway to the province of Cavite. Bacoor is the first capital of the
Revolutionary Government under General Emilio Aguinaldo. A historical landmark in our forebears’ quest
for Philippine Independence was the hard-fought Battle of Zapote Bridge on February 17, 1897. “Gargano”
was the revolutionary name given to Bacoor. The city government of Bacoor was previously housed at the
old Municipal Hall of Bacoor in Barangay Tabing Dagat which could no longer accommodate needs of the
local government units. In March 2, 2012, the groundbreaking for a new government center was made.
The government facility which has a 11,200 square meters (121,000 sq ft) of floor area, was built on 2
hectares (4.9acres) lot donated by Senator Villar and Nar Cimiano Gawaran of the Addas Development
Corporation. The three-storey building was also built as a building and completion of the building was
scheduled to 2013, at the time of the groundbreaking. The city hall building was inaugurated in September
29, 2015, in line with the city's 344thfounding anniversary celebration. The building also houses other
government offices such as the satellite branches of the Investigation, Industry, National Statistics Housing
and Land Use Regulatory Board and Overseas Workers Welfare Administration.
Mission: To institute good governance, promote culture, trade and investment in the city through modern
technology towards a safe and sound environment.
Vision: The Marching band capital of the Philippines, a business-friendly, environmentally sustainable and
resilient city led by God Centered, responsible and united Bacooreños.
