The person behind the ideas
Who I am
Hi, I’m Yol, a graphic designer based in Geneva, Switzerland.
My Filipino roots and my life in Switzerland are both important parts of who I am. Growing up with different cultures and languages has shaped my perspective and continues to influence the way I approach creativity.
My journey into graphic design began at CFP Arts, where I developed my foundations before continuing my studies in Visual Communication at HEAD–Genève.
I’m particularly drawn to visual identities, editorial design and typography, while remaining curious about other mediums and ways of communicating ideas.
How I work.
For me, every project begins with curiosity. I like to understand its context, ask questions and explore different directions before settling on a visual approach.
I enjoy experimenting with typography, imagery, materials and digital tools, letting the concept guide the choices I make rather than sticking to a single style or medium.
What matters most to me is creating work that feels thoughtful and relevant, where the visual decisions have a purpose beyond simply looking good.
What I do.
