Driven by the belief in the power of inspiration, Creative Manila was founded by John Vincent Redrico in 2010. Originally starting as a Facebook Fan Page showcasing creative advertising, it quickly grew into a platform that encompasses all forms of creativity. The website was launched in 2012 and has since become the go-to destination for anyone in love with creativity.
Creative Manila's strength lies in its ability to curate and showcase a vast selection of works from both local and international artists. From advertising to photography, graphic design to web design, illustrations to videos, the platform covers a wide range of mediums. It provides a stage for artists to share their work and gain appreciation from a global audience.
One of the unique features of Creative Manila is its focus on building a community. It serves as a space where people can connect, get inspired, and share what inspires them. The platform encourages playful conceptualization and aims to transcend the influence of daily inspiration. It fosters collaboration and networking among creative professionals, students, and enthusiasts.
The website's design is responsive, allowing it to be easily accessed and enjoyed on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones. This ensures that the platform reaches a wider audience and caters to the strong mobile traffic in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
Over the years, Creative Manila has garnered recognition for its contribution to the creative industry. In 2013, it won the Silver A' Design Award, and in 2015, it was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award for Website and Web Design. These accolades acknowledge the platform's outstanding design and its commitment to incorporating best practices in art, science, design, and technology.
Creative Manila continues to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing landscape of creativity. With its mission to inspire an inspired community, it remains fueled by the passion of everything creative. Whether you're an artist, designer, or simply someone who appreciates creativity, Creative Manila is the place to be.
