Bacani Architectural Design Studio is a Davao-based practice established in 2025.
While the studio is young, our approach is rooted in timeless architectural principles. We believe that good design is not defined by trends, but by how well it serves the people who live in it.
We embrace AI and modern technology as tools to enhance the design process. At the same time, we stay grounded in the fundamentals of architecture. Listening, observing, and understanding people. Because in the end, spaces are not just built, they are lived in.
The studio is led by Ar. Yudin Bacani, a Davaoeño and a graduate of the University of Mindanao, Class of 2019. His journey began under the mentorship of Ar. Gloryrose Dy-Metilla of Swito Architecture Designs, a firm known for heritage conservation and community-rooted design.
This experience shaped how we approach every project today. With respect for context, culture, and the everyday lives of the people we design for.
OUR PRINCIPLES
People Come First
Every project starts with you. Your lifestyle, your routines, and your needs guide every design decision. We take time to understand how you live so the space truly works for you and your family.
Place Grounds Us
We design with respect for the land, the climate, and the culture of Davao and the Philippines. Each project responds to its environment, creating spaces that feel natural and connected to their surroundings.
Purpose Guides Everything
This is at the core of what we do. Every line, form, and material has a reason. We remove what is unnecessary and focus on what truly matters. The result is a space that is not only beautiful, but meaningful and built to last.
OUR CREDO
Architecture begins and ends with YOU.
