Juan Carlo Calma (born 22 May 1981) is a Filipino visual artist and architect. He lives and works in Makati, Manila, Philippines. He has been called "one of the Philippines’ bright young stars in architecture, interior design, and visual arts." [1]
With a degree from a line of artisans and architects, [2] he finished multidisciplinary courses in sculpture, painting, and light design at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco (2000–2003). He then moved to London and graduated from the Architectural Association School of Architecture (2009).
His works seek to blur the lines between art and architecture. His design practice, Carlo Calma Consultancy, Inc., challenges itself to cross scales [1] and media from bespoke private homes to public installations that have been called "young, edgy, and very impressive." [3]
Aside from private practice, he is currently an architectural design consultant at Multi Development and Construction Corporation, where he has produced architectural works and interiors admired by members of the Philippine elite. [4][ dead link]
As a visual artist, Calma's work has been exhibited in San Francisco, London, and Manila. He has since taken part in both solo and group exhibitions and has been recognized by art collectors in Southeast Asia and beyond. Calma also owns and curates the Manifesto Gallery in Manila, as well as a fine-dining restaurant that fuses food and art called Gallery Vask. [5]
