Iβm Gielizza Calzado, a multidisciplinary creative ready to help you grow brand from the seed of an idea into a well-watered garden through thoughtful design and creative services.
Mabuhay!Currently based in the sunny (and sometimes rainy) archipelago of the Philippines, my love for art as a manga-drawing kid has grown into a drive to help solve creative dilemmas of business owners, founders, and companies.
If Iβm not busy building visual identity systems, youβll likely find me riding my bike around the neighborhood, serving at my local church through prayer, tweeting about my k-pop favesβSEVENTEEN, GOT7, DAY6, and WINNER, or staring at leaves to photosynthesize my brain.
The bible verse at the footer of my website has anchored me during times of uncertainty and overwhelm. Even in seasons of ease, itβs my reminder that thanksgiving and praise are fitting for the grace I have in Jesus Christ. Gratefully Creating, divinely inspired, became the name for this blossoming design practice.

My Growth StoryAfter almost a decade of working in advertising and marketing with bouts of burnout and existential crisis in between, I took the leap of faith and started building my own design practice. Five years in and Iβve been blessed with a diverse roster of projects and clients.
My creative backbone has grown stronger, my purpose aligned, my tolerance for failure higher and faith in God deeper. I look forward to helping more businesses and brands to flourish through my craft.
