What they do
Royal Pineda+ (Royal Pineda + Architecture•Design) is the solo practice of architect Royal Pineda, organized around a "Modern Filipino" approach to luxury residential work. It offers master planning, architecture, interiors, landscape and environmental design, and frames luxury as precision over scale: in Pineda's words, "I can live in luxury by being sure of what I need."
Pineda earned his architecture degree at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines and worked under National Artist Leandro V. Locsin before co-founding BUDJI+ROYAL with Budji Layug and later forming this solo studio. In 2010 he coined "practical luxury," luxury by design at a reasonable cost using locally sourced materials.
Residential projects credited to Royal Pineda+ include the Sta. Elena Residence, The Garden House, Sea House and M House. Tatler documented a Modern Filipino home he designed on a roughly four-hectare site in Luzon.
