Unlike most cities in Metro Manila, San Juan City exudes a laid-back charm. Its unique blend of tranquility and relaxation doesn’t mean it lacks surprises. This city is full of hidden gems, and one of the latest additions is The Corner House.
Designed by award-winning Thai architect Amata Lupaibhoon, The Corner House is a community-driven space that embraces San Juan City’s heritage. It features open spaces that maximize natural light and ventilation. Architect Amata shared that the design was inspired by the evolving needs of the local community and thoughtfully blends innovation with the city’s history. As a result, nearly every corner of the space is a perfect backdrop for your weekend OOTD shots.
As the first of its kind in Manila, The Corner House seamlessly integrates commerce, creativity, and culture, offering a unique space for everyone. And this weekend might just be the perfect time for you to visit.

No weekend stroll is complete without a café visit and a little food crawl—and The Corner House has you covered. Satisfy your craving for both local and international cuisine with its diverse selection of restaurants. Enjoy authentic Singaporean dishes at Kaokee, flavorful Japanese specialties at Tamagogo and Tajimaya, and bestselling Chinese dishes at The Leg Room.
