I did some tweaks on the previous sketches I made before. I was trying to make a “bokeh” effect by blurring the circles a bit. But the filter blur in Processing was a bit too strong and I still don’t know how to control it yet, the result was something far from the [...]

I find myself going back to learning Processing when I feel the need for fresh air or escape. Someone told me that I was too technical to be creative. Working with highly technical people, this was something new to me. I always am thought of as creative than technical. I [...]

While rummaging through my folders… while transferring and backing up files because my hard disk is already complaining, I stumbled on this file. It was the original design, didn’t look like the final product because the printer said it would be too hard to print the gradients.

It’s flattering to see people wearing your design. Even though it was a gift, I saw that the people genuinely liked the shirts that we handed out to them. Although I was just limited by 3 colors, I had the freedom of designing what the shirt would look like. I made the [...]

After presenting to about 50 people last week during Virlanie Foundation’s town hall meeting, I recently heard that my proposed logo redesign was accepted. The Virlanie Foundation Inc (VFI) is the largest private non-sectarian child caring institution in Metro Manila, Philippines. It operates 12 residential homes providing shelter, food, education and love to over [...]

The site has a lot of community tools like a forum, polls, a community calendar and it also allows members to create [...]

I have been on a blog vacation for a while and aside from being swamped with work, having a week of flu, and a wedding. The Perlas clan from different parts of the country and the world came over the holidays for a reunion 2 years in the making and a first in maybe 15 years family [...]
