S.W.O.T.
STRENGTHS
 STRATEGIC LOCATION: ONLY AIRPORT IN BAGUIO, SERVING AS
GATEWAY TO CORDILLERA REGION AND TOURISM HUB.
 CULTURAL IDENTITY: INTEGRATION OF IFUGAO BALE AND IGOROT
TEXTILE PATTERNS GIVES UNIQUE ARCHITECTURE AND STRONG
SENSE OF PLACE.
 TOURISM BOOST: SUPPORTS BAGUIO’S TOURISM-DRIVEN ECONOMY,
ATTRACTS BOTH DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL TRAVELERS.
 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: SHOWCASES LOCAL CULTURE, CRAFTS,
AND IDENTITY, STRENGTHENING PRIDE AND OWNERSHIP.
 LOT SIZE (8,183 SQM): SUFFICIENT FOR A COMPACT BUT WELL-
PLANNED TERMINAL WITH POTENTIAL FOR EXPANSION.
WEAKNESSES

 LIMITED LAND AREA: SMALLER THAN INTERNATIONAL-STANDARD

AIRPORTS; RESTRICTS LARGE EXPANSION.
 OPERATIONAL CHALLENGES: WEATHER (FOG, LOW VISIBILITY) OFTEN
DISRUPTS FLIGHTS.
 BUDGET CONSTRAINTS: HIGH COST OF CULTURALLY INSPIRED
ARCHITECTURE (CUSTOM ROOF, FINISHES, CRAFT INTEGRATION).
 INFRASTRUCTURE AGE: EXISTING FACILITIES MAY REQUIRE MAJOR
UPGRADING TO MEET CAAP AND FIRE CODE STANDARDS.
OPPORTUNITIES

 TOURISM GROWTH: BAGUIO AND CORDILLERA REMAIN PRIME

DESTINATIONS; A MODERN AIRPORT CAN HANDLE GROWING
DEMAND.
 CULTURAL TOURISM: TERMINAL DESIGN AS A LIVING MUSEUM
(CRAFT STALLS, IGOROT-INSPIRED INTERIORS) CAN ATTRACT NON-
FLYERS.
 ECONOMIC IMPACT: BOOSTS LOCAL BUSINESS—RETAIL, F&B, AND
CRAFTS.
 SUSTAINABILITY SHOWCASE: OPPORTUNITY TO USE GREEN
ARCHITECTURE, PASSIVE COOLING, AND LOCAL MATERIALS.
 GOVERNMENT SUPPORT: CAAP, DOT, AND LGUS MAY PRIORITIZE
FUNDING TO STRENGTHEN REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY.

THREATS
 ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS: EARTHQUAKES, LANDSLIDES, AND CLIMATE
ISSUES (FOG, HEAVY RAIN) DISRUPT OPERATIONS.
 COMPETITION: NEARBY LARGER AIRPORTS (CLARK, LAOAG) MAY
REDUCE LOAKAN’S STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE.
 REGULATORY HURDLES: STRICT CAAP, NBCP, FIRE CODE, BP 344
COMPLIANCE MAY SLOW PROJECT APPROVAL.
 COMMUNITY RESISTANCE: IF CULTURAL INTEGRATION IS NOT DONE
RESPECTFULLY, IT MAY BE SEEN AS TOKENISM.
 ECONOMIC SHIFTS: FLUCTUATIONS IN AIRLINE DEMAND, PANDEMICS,
OR ECONOMIC DOWNTURNS REDUCE PASSENGER VOLUME.

CONCEPT: ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE DERIVED FROM IFUGAO HOUSES

(ELEVATED PLATFORMS, TIMBER RHYTHM, STEEP GABLED ROOFS) AND
IGOROT GEOMETRIC PATTERNS (REPEATING WEAVES, STEPPED MOTIFS)
— TO BE EXPRESSED IN FACADE RHYTHMS, ROOF FORM, AND INTERIOR
WAYFINDING/FINISHES.
