MANILA, PHILIPPINES — Award-winning production powerhouse Elesi Studios has just unveiled its new home in the heart of Makati’s thriving creative district. The 300-square-meter modern space has transformed into more than a workplace — now, it’s the latest playground for creatives, agencies, production houses, and content creators alike.
Breathing new life where art meets technology
Formerly known for Makati’s nightlife, the space now holds a different kind of energy that celebrates Filipino creativity and innovation. Imagine a no-corners, biophilic design where workspaces seamlessly blend with art, vibes, and future-forward features, making it as dynamic as the people it welcomes. This studio reminds us to embody, create, and innovate while staying grounded in our modern interpretation of Filipino culture and values.
Elesi’s new home is a refreshing convergence of tech-powered artistry. Its openly wide layout, enhanced by sleek interiors courtesy of Motif Studios, is tailored for both work and play. In addition to its design, the space is complemented by amenities for inspired shoots, brainstorming sessions, and collaborations.
As you walk in, the lobby welcomes visitors with an AR-enhanced mural by acclaimed artist Kris Abrigo. The mural represents Elesi’s commitment to experimentation and storytelling in a digital world. The visual and interactive experience was developed in collaboration with content creators Third Lorenzo and Fel Torres and AR developer Ira Cruz, adding a tech-forward touch to the collection.
Throughout the space, works by Filipino contemporary artists like Sais (@_sa.is), Bitto (@studio_bitto), Chalk Zaldivar (@chalkzaldivar), Archie Sumilang (@archiesumilang), and Jet Valencia (@jet.valencia) grace the walls, turning the whole studio into both testament and homage to Filipino creativity.
