A space shaped to house your vision
Create, Curate, Host.
Penthouse 205 is a creative studio by Jaja Samaniego, located in the heart of Makati’s central business district, offering a quiet, light-filled space above the city. Designed as a physical extension of Jaja’s refined, editorial approach to photography, the studio reflects the same sense of calm, intention, and thoughtful composition found in her work.
The space includes both an indoor studio and rooftop access, allowing for a seamless flow between studio sessions, content shoots to intimate gatherings and brand activations.
The rooftop offers an additional layer to the space best suited for conversations and gatherings that call for a change of pace without leaving the city.
