Archipelagic Design sees creativity not as fixed silos, but as interconnected living ecosystems. Drawing from the biodiversity, storytelling, and materiality of archipelagos, we craft intricate and diverse channels of community resonance. From product design to social media and exhibitions, we navigate the shifting tides while bringing soul into each design. TAYO is an Archipelagic Design agency. Our practice centers on research and exploration of cultures to co-create visual identities, strategies, and immersive experiences. #salusalotayo ——— Filmed & Edited by @_mikoreyes Salu-Salo girls @nanasongco @teabetita @daniellehramos @andimanosa @bellasfelix @beagemps Creative Direction & Styling @archipelagicdesign

“Our climate solutions must be based on science and solved through culture.” Thank you for sharing our story after almost 10 years of Kids for Kids, and 5 years of TAYO — it always is for the culture, climate, and community of young people that empower our islands and our archipelago. Always in the spirit of Bayanihan, @kidsforkidsph & @archipelagicdesign With @forthefutureph @masungigeoreserve @mangrovesforourfuture @emergingislands on @voguephilippines

TAYO Archipelagic Design Agency marks its evolution with the launch of the Archipelagic Design Living Lexicon and Archive, grounding contemporary design practice in ecology, culture, memory, and collective research. Through Salu-Salo TAYO at the National Museum of Natural History, the studio gathered artists, artisans, and communities in a multisensory celebration of Filipino design rooted in the archipelago.

Recently, TAYO @archipelagicdesign hosted “Salu-Salo TAYO” at the National Museum of Natural History, marking National Heritage Month with the debut of its “Archipelagic Design Living Lexicon and Archive.” The event gave guests a full, in-depth look into the lexicon, designed to be used for all kinds of purposes, including hospitality branding, corporate sustainability, large-scale exhibitions, and product design. What the design agency calls “Archipelagic Design” refuses to treat creativity as a set of isolated disciplines, ecology as a footnote in a brief, and Filipino visual culture as something to be measured against Western standards.

How do we embody what it means to design as nature? For the launch of @archipelagicdesign last May 8 – we conceptualized a seafloor of jellies in flavors and shapes that represent our island’s identity and cyclical nature. Served alongside freshwater shells and candied flowers to bring forth a dessert experience that encapsulates the TAYO spirit. 🪸

Maraming Salamat @natmuseumph for co-hosting #salusalotayo with us, what a dream! Last Friday, we spent a day surrounded by our community in a space to archive the ecology of our home. We are incredibly grateful to work with such talented collaborators — from our guests who joined the conversation to the hands that crafted life into this space. We will continue to unfold the design story of this gathering but we would just like to share our gratitude for those that have supported us throughout our 8 years, to those that are joining us in this new era, thank you all for being a part of our growing Barangay!

We are the first design & experience studio dedicated to designing Filipino. Rooted in the ways of the Filipina, we craft design solutions grounded in the culture and nature of our archipelago- with a design team composed of 100% women. From co-creating identities for passion projects, to large-scale events and gatherings, we curate experiences that blend traditional & contemporary media for everyone to witness the greatness of the Filipina.
