Miniature house maker fascinates netizens with his intricate works

A student from Tacloban City who creates miniature houses went viral online for his outstanding works!

According to Mariz Umali's report on "24 Oras," Tuesday, 20-year-old Jhun Louie Sarquilla makes his miniature houses with only cardboard boxes and recycled items.

"Nagsimula po 'yun nung paghanga ko sa mga magagandang gusali na nakikita ko nung bata pa ako at dahil sa murang edad, sa edad na walo, ay natuto akong gumawa ng mga miniature gawa sa papel," Jhun said.

"Sa totoo lang po wala pong nagturo sa akin. Tanging nasa imahinasyon ko lamang po sa mga nakita ko pong gusali nung bata pa ako," he added.

Jhun, who needed to take a pause from college, saves the earnings he makes from selling his works for his education.

"Dahil po sa kakulangan ng pinansyal para po makatulong sa pamilya kaya gumawa po ako ng mga miniature houses," he said.

His works caught the attention of netizens on social media after being posted by his former teacher.

"Masayang masaya ako at laking pasasalamat ko sa aking former teacher na si Sir Rufino at sa Poong Maykapal," Jhun said. "Pangarap ko pong maging isang ganap na architect."
