Good News Only Agency

Various design works for Good News Only Agency. 

camo Magazine

Camo Magazine is a zine created to highlight a range of creative individuals and give them a platform to share their work. The project focuses on showcasing artists, designers, and makers whose perspectives might otherwise go unseen, bringing their work into a single, accessible publication.

The design approach emphasizes individuality while maintaining a cohesive visual system throughout the zine. Through layout, typography, and imagery, the publication aims to support each contributor’s voice while creating a unified reading experience. Camo Magazine ultimately serves as both a creative archive and a space for emerging and independent creatives to be seen.

Grooves

Grooves is an all-day café bar inspired by the Filipino culture we grew up with here. At the heart of Filipino culture is food—but more than that, it’s about togetherness. It’s friends, family, and strangers coming together, sharing meals, stories, and good times around the same table.

From early mornings to late nights, Grooves moves with the rhythm of the day,serving coffee, food, and drinks as the space naturally shifts from café to bar.

Music is just as important to us as cuisine. Like food, music has a way of bringing people together, slowing things down, and making people feel present. At Grooves, music isn’t background noise—it’s part of the experience.

Most nights, Grooves becomes a listening bar: a place to unwind, to sit with intention, to really hear the music, taste the food, and enjoy the moment. Whether you come alone or with others, Grooves is about being here, being present, and sharing something meaningful.

San Francisco Parks and Recreation

In 2024, San Francisco Park and Recreation reached out to collaborate on an events poster for the month of October. From the beginning, they emphasized keeping the design simple and approachable, highlighting elements from around the parks while organizing events into clear categories for easy communication. The color palette was also intentionally minimal, aligning with both their brand and the seasonal tone of October.

Because the poster was planned months in advance, there was plenty of room for iteration. The final layout, typography choices, and event categories were refined through a process of trial and error, allowing the design to gradually evolve into something both functional and visually engaging.

The poster shown to the right represents the final direction we landed on, and it was rewarding to see it displayed throughout the city.
