Alcala, Ben Infante and Nestor Redondo.

Architecture
1972 Juan Nakpil (May 26, 1899 – May 7, 1986)
Nakpil’s greatest contribution is his belief that there is such a thing as Philippine Architecture,
espousing architecture reflective of Philippine traditions and culture. It is also largely due to his zealous
representation and efforts that private Filipino architects and engineers, by law, are now able to
participate in the design and execution of government projects. He has integrated strength, function, and
beauty in the buildings that are the country’s heritage today. He designed the 1937 International
Eucharistic Congress altar and rebuilt and enlarged the Quiapo Church in 1930 adding a dome and a
second belfry to the original design.

Antonio is considered a pioneer in modern Philippine architecture. His works which include Far Eastern
University Administration and Science Buildings and the Manila Polo Club exhibit his “function over form”
take on design. A prominent feature of his designs is the use of natural light and cross ventilation.
According to Antonio, buildings should be planned with austerity in mind and its stability forever as the
aim of true architecture, that buildings must be progressive, simple in design but dignified, true to a
purpose without resorting to an applied set of aesthetics and should eternally recreate truth.
1990 Leondro V. Locsin (August 15, 1928 – November 15, 1994)

Country Club in Imus, Cavite.
2014 Jose Maria Zaragoza (December 6, 1912 – November 26, 1994)
José María V. Zaragoza’s place in Philippine architecture history is defined by a significant body of
modern edifices that address spiritual and secular requirements. Zaragoza’s name is synonymous to
modern ecclesiastical architecture. Notwithstanding his affinity to liturgical structures, he greatly excelled
in secular works: 36 office buildings, 4 hotels, 2, hospitals, 5 low-cost and middle-income housing
projects; and more than 270 residences – all demonstrating his typological versatility and his mastery of
modernist architectural vocabulary.

Fashion Design
2006 Ramon Valera (August 31, 1912 – May 25, 1972)
The contribution of Ramon Valera lies in the tradition of excellence of his works, and his commitment to
his profession, performing his magical seminal innovations on the Philippine terno. Valera is said to have
given the country its visual icon to the world via the terno. In the early 40s, Valera produced a single
piece of clothing from a four-piece ensemble consisting of a blouse, skirt, overskirt, and long scarf. He
unified the components of the baro’t saya into a single dress with exaggerated bell sleeves, cinched at
the waist, grazing the ankle, and zipped up at the back. Using zipper in place of hooks was already a
radical change for the country’s elite then. Dropping the panuelo-the long folded scarf hanging down the
chest, thus serving as the Filipina’s gesture of modesty-from the entire ensemble became a bigger shock
for the women then. Valera constructed the terno’s butterfly sleeves, giving them a solid, built-in but
hidden support. To the world, the butterfly sleeves became the terno’s defining feature.
