Established in 2010, the museum draws inspiration from Spanish architecture infused with a touch of the Mediterranean. It is set on a sprawling 1.2-hectare estate that combines modern architecture with lush, tropical landscapes. Its design features a mix of traditional Filipino elements and contemporary aesthetics, with whitewashed walls and open spaces that seamlessly blend with the natural surroundings.

Driven by the passion of Filipino neurologist Dr. Joven Cuanag, a devoted patron of the arts and a specialist in neurological disorders, the museum was created to house and exhibit his remarkable collection. Dr. Cuanag’s dedication to both art and his medical field has been a driving force behind the museum’s development and success.
