Thesis

Each society is identified through various characteristics: their
culture, their architecture, their food, or the combination of all three. These
interconnecting elements have a certain effect on other significant cultural
minorities existing within the same society, with their own respective
characteristics. By identifying these effects, a cultural minority is able to fully
take advantage of its consumer, develop a style that attracts its target market
yet not stray from its cultural origins, and architecturally speaking, develop a
set of design guidelines unique to the needs, preferences, and functionality of
its spaces and end users.
The study aimed to determine how one dominating culture, the Modern
Filipino culture and cuisine, affect other cultural minorities existing within in –
namely, Japanese, Halal, Indian, and Healthy/Vegan cuisine. Three restaurants
of each cuisine were studied through ocular observation and key informant
interviews. All the data gathered underwent statistical treatments and analysis
via the space syntax method, and the fuzzy logic analysis to determine the ideal
space configuration for each cuisine that maximizes functional efficiency, taking
into account the significant differences each cuisine carried under the dominant
modern Filipino culture.
Design guidelines of culinary spaces for each cuisine then developed
from the analysis and integrated into a possible project which is a Cultural food
park. The Cultural food park showcases cultural and cuisine diversity, with a
space design that took great consideration of the internal variety of cultures,
cuisine, and architecture, and the external dominating modern Filipino culture.
