I design websites that make businesses clear.
I'm Eric Agulto, an independent web designer in Quezon City. I take a site from the first conversation to the live URL: structure, wording, design and code all come from the same person, so nothing gets translated to somebody else on the way.
Selected work
Five businesses, each with a reason behind every section.
Five client websites, built end to end and live on their own domains. Open them, and read the note on what each one had to solve and why the page is arranged like it is.

Demo builds
Demo builds, made without a brief to answer to.
Nineteen of them, all self-initiated: no brief, no client, nobody to approve it. Three here, six on the work page, the rest on the practice site.

About me
One designer. One conversation. One website at a time.
I work directly with the people I build for. There is no account manager relaying messages, and no gap between the design and the code, because both come from the same desk. It also means I keep the number of projects small — attention is the thing being sold.
My client work runs under Orivian Studio, my independent practice. This site is the personal side: how I think, what I care about, and the work I'm proudest of.

What I do
The parts of a website that matter.
Planning and structure
Deciding what the site has to accomplish before anything gets built: which pages, in what order, and the one thing a visitor should do next. It fits on a page, and we agree it before design starts.
Content and messaging
Headlines, service pages and buttons written the way you would explain the business to somebody at the counter. If I cannot get it out of you, I draft it and you correct it.
Lightweight builds
Fast, focused sites for content that changes rarely. No framework shipped just to render a page of text, and no builder plugin sitting between you and the markup.
WordPress and Elementor
WordPress and Elementor when you want to change prices, photographs and pages yourself afterwards — set up so the editable parts are obvious, with a walkthrough of what you are allowed to touch. Refreshes too, when an existing site needs work rather than a rebuild.
How I work
Understand, shape, build, launch.
Understand
A call about the business. I ask what people email you about, and what you keep having to explain twice.
Shape
A page list and an order, with the headline written in ordinary words before anything is designed.
Build
Design and development in the same pass, on a link you can open on your own phone.
Launch
Domain moved, old addresses redirected, logins handed over, and every form tested first.
Let's talk

Tell me what the business does and what is not working. I'll come back with questions and a suggested starting point, not a brochure.
