Press Release: Mark San Diego and The One School

It was during his college years, while finishing his B.S. Entrepreneurship Course at The ONE School that Mark realized his passion for furniture and interior design.

Right after college, Mark borrowed money from his dad, Antonio San Diego, and started purchasing wood and basic tools, as well as rented two warehouse spaces in Antipolo and Makati, hiring one worker with skills in carpentry, painting, upholstery, and welding under him.

In a span of five months, Mark was able to pay his father back. The warehouse in Antipolo is now where the structures and framework of each of his pieces are created, while the warehouse in Makati is where the upholstery and finishing is added right before delivery. All of Mark’s designs are custom-made. Today he employs four full-time craftsmen who assist in creating his unique furniture pieces.

Mark acknowledges the teaching style of The ONE School which focuses on personalized entrepreneurial education. And unlike other young men his age, Mark has taken control of his life and is now doing something he is passionate about while being successful at it at the same time.



The Twins. Inspired by the Filipino myth of Malakas at Maganda, this piece serves as a metaphor for love by presenting two independent and functional parts that can combine to form one whole.



Pelvic Chair. This piece draws inspiration from the beauty of the female form. It's "inner beauty" personified, delving past human skin and down to the structure that enables child-bearing: the precious hip bone.

The ONE School is a non-traditional, personalized college with a mission to transform each individual into their finest self. Programs at ONE are designed to hone self-worth, articulateness, intrapersonal intelligence, and an entrepreneurial mindset, which are essential tools for success in life.

The ONE School offers degree and non-degree courses in Entrepreneurship, Fashion, Graphic Design and Multimedia Studies. www.one.edu.ph
