jason chua
principal architect
Jason took up architecture at the University of San Carlos-Cebu and went on to work at Palafox Associates, one of the premier architectural firms in the country. In 2012, he took the licensure exam for architecture and placed 5th overall.
In the years since its founding, he has led VSA through a wide range of projects of various typologies and scales; constantly pushing both himself and the team to never settle for just “good enough”. A designer at heart, Jason believes that every problem can be solved by good and intentional design. His pragmatic yet critical approach often yields results that are both creative and highly functional. As an architect, he espouses that in order to improve our built environment we must learn to do more with less and aspire to create design solutions that are innovative, inventive, and not wasteful.
Over the years, Jason has also continued his professional education by gaining certifiication as a BERDE professional while also taking short courses such as the MIT Design Thinking program which he completed in 2020. He also regularly participates as a guest speaker in academic and professional forums where he provides his insights and perspective as an architect and practitioner of the new generation.
