I’m Francis Leo Tabios, my parents are both from Philippines but I was born in Sicily on September 1st 1987 and then raised in Milan. So I’m a mixture of western and eastern culture, and both of them have influenced my works.

My passion for Product Design began during my bachelor’s degree at NABA (Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti di Milano), where I was introduced to the fascinating world of design thinking. During my master’s degree at Politecnico di Milano, I honed my skills as a Product Service System Designer. In pursuit of new challenges, I embarked on a year-long double degree program in Design & Innovation at Tongji University in Shanghai, China.

My creative impulses are rooted in my varied interests, ranging from comic books, movies and music to martial arts. I draw inspiration from these pursuits, and have turned my passion into a powerful tool for professional growth. My passion for keeping up with the latest trends and pop culture has always been a driving force behind my work. I strive to create products and experiences that resonate with people on a deeper level.

As my career evolved, I transitioned from UX design to Creative Direction. This allowed me to push the boundaries of what is possible and discover new ideas for my work.

As I continue to explore the world of design, I am motivated by the endless possibilities that lie ahead. With each new project, I strive to push the boundaries of what is possible and create stories that inspire and delight people. My journey has taught me that passion, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to curiosity are the keys to success in any field.

My hope is that through my work, I can inspire others to pursue their passions and follow their dreams. Whether you’re a designer, an artist, or simply someone with a vision, I believe that anything is possible if you’re willing to work hard and never give up. So let’s dream big, take risks, and create something truly amazing together. The world is waiting for us.
