Design & Archives

Vanilla is a Manila-based designer and archivist specializing in branding and book design. She maintains an independent design practice, contributing to both local and international design studios.

The mixture of her creative practice and varied educational background in Arts Management and Archiving Studies lends a unique approach to her design thinking. She collaborates with brands, creatives, and institutions who strive to grow intentional ideas and believe in adding positive value to the lives of others through honest service and good design.

When she’s not working, she’s writing postcards to a community of mail lovers, running, or continuing research for her poster project Color Story and archival efforts for Women In Philippine Postage Stamps.

She is currently finishing a Master’s Degree in Archives and Records Management in University of the Philippines Diliman.
