John Paul F. Marasigan
Ateneo de Manila BFA Information Design
21 years old
August 25, 1986
Selt Portraits
He considers himself to be an inspiring and “on the works” graphic designer. He designs mostly materials for his home organization in the Ateneo – Heights. Usually the works he does are materials of all sorts such as posters, brochures, organizational forms, etc.
“My inspiration is not the driving force kind, rather, it is an inspiration in the sense of ideas.”
He uses both traditional and digital media, whichever is necessary. However, in all his works, digital has to be always part of it since digital files are required to print them. His design process starts with a little research. Then, he looks for an inspiration. After which, he sits in front of a blank page or computer and works until he finishes with 5 minute breaks in between.
