The Vision

Aside from being a unique and new destination in the Metro, Lakbay Museo, a project by The Millennial Concept Factory Inc. aims to raise environmental awareness. We noticed that most of the displays are made of recycled materials from rubber slippers, old tires, plastic bottles, and other waste products.
