This research paper consists of 6 chapters and each chapter has specific aspect of the adaptation of the Phililippines modern architecture respectively. Chapter 1 overviews the transition of architectural styles inftuenced by the U.S.A. dominantly for about a century with four specific eras. Chapter 2 explains architectural adaptation to the climatic conditions of the Philippines historically since pre-modern era to contemporary stage. Chapter 3 describes technical adaptation of the architecture referring to construction method and material which were introduced from the U.S.A. originally and have diffused widely in the country. Chapter 4 refers cultural adaptation accompanied by several major cultural categories in order to observe the architectural phenomena as an aspect of whole contemporary cultural movement.
