Baybayin Skate Series
“Just My Type”
Dec 2022
The Baybayin series celebrates and cultivates the native Filipino script and culture through product design under a skatewear brand for Downcast, LLC.
Exploration and usage of three fonts to create visual imagery and identity in apparel and merch designs.
In the designs, the native Filipino script and alphabet known as “Baybayin,” is infused with a Eurowestern black letter font to be seen as irony under the notion of Spaniards colonizing the indigenous tribes of the early Philippine Islands. Native flowers from the Island of the Philippines are used as visual imagery along with tribal tattoo patterns that were often used in the early days of Philippines’ tribes.
History and background of the native flowers are expressed as pure and interesting information to add depth and meanings of the Baybayin script are translated for educational purposes.
Applications include:
- A set of three different tees
- A set of three different crew socks
- An 11x17 poster set with defined tagalog words in accordance to the Philippine Baybayin script and native flowers of the Philippine Islands
- 3x2 Tarot card of native flowers, their uses and historical background
- Skate deck versions of the poster and t-shirt designs

Final Fantasy VII Remake Rundown
“FFVII Synopsis Magazine”
May 2020
An editorial exclusive Final Fantasy VII Remake mini synopsis magazine, in its first installment.
Contents reveal a brief intro and synopsis to the game, providing a backstory on Cloud Strife, his recent relations with “eco-terrorists” AVALANCHE, Shinra’s motives, and Sephiroth’s goals that tie in with the planet.
The Final Fantasy VII logo is kept on the front cover and the video game franchise’s font (OPTIEngeEtienne) is used throughout the magazine in main titles/headlines per page--a way to keep their iconic font recognizable for fans.
The franchise, made by the Square Enix video game developing company, keeps a certain elegance with a modern take with their themes in visual design. Image editing/manipulation, color correction, layout design, and typography were heavily used to create dynamic, yet consistent brand design for use of IP and content.
