Quezon Hall, the seat of administration of both the UP System and UPD, was designed by Juan Felipe Nakpil, who was conferred the first National Artist for Architecture title in 1973. On the other hand, the PHS was designed by Leandro V. Locsin, who received the award in 1990.
Quezon Hall was among the buildings constructed at the Diliman campus in the early 1950s, following the University’s exodus from Padre Faura to Diliman in 1949. An imposing colonial structure at the end of the University Avenue, it was completed in 1950. Its chief architect, Nakpil, is recognized as “a pioneer of modern Philippine architecture,” who “has contributed immensely to the present state and form of Philippine modern architecture.”
