Surā سُرى

A journey by night.Surā is the Arabic word for travelling by night: quietly, unseen, arriving before anyone notices. It is also how scent moves through a home. A home fragrance brand for the Gulf, with a drawn wordmark whose ya becomes the motif, blind-embossed on every box. No ink, only light and touch.

Kernio

The head is the window.A popcorn brand built on one idea: the character's head is cut out of the pack, so the real popcorn inside completes the face. One character, five moods, a pattern for every flavour.

Skild

Desert-born skincare.Skincare for dry-climate skin. One curved S runs through bottles, cards and even the way serum and cream are shot, and every colour comes from a texture you can touch: clay, amber serum, bronze, date plum and limestone.

FIZ

Four years shaping one visual language.FIZ is a fast grocery delivery app in Kuwait. I took its communication from crowded, text-heavy promotions to a clear, bold system across campaigns, in-app, email, social and motion, including a loyalty journey where every delivery unlocks the next level.

Brand world

The objects that carry FIZ through every campaign. I redrew the rocket, the scooter and the bag in the brand's colours and lightning bolt, then developed them with AI into the 3D set used across the work.

Liwan ليوان

From the lobby to the door handle.A hotel identity named after the liwan, the open hall where guests are received. Terracotta, stone and black, a hand-drawn Arabic wordmark and an eight-point star that carries from the key card to the lobby wall.

Liwan identity: logo concept, colour system, logo applications and pattern
06 — Client, Kuwait · Identity system

ProPainters

We project feelings.A premium painting and decorative-finishes studio. Working from its existing logo, I built the identity system around it: stationery, a bilingual catalogue and brochures, sample-box packaging, tape, the crew uniform and the social feed. Black, white and the mark doing the talking.

More selected work

Client packaging, identities and personal brands across food, beauty and hospitality.

07 — Client, Qatar · Logo & pattern

Bessan بيسان

Made to remember.A personalised gifts and mirrors brand. The brief was the logo and the pattern: a square Kufic mark that frames the name like a keepsake, and a line pattern built from it. The cards, wrap, boxes and bags are mockups showing how the system can live.

08 — Client, Qatar · Packaging

Oven Lovin

Every opening feels like a gift.Two box families for a Qatar-based bakery, built within its existing identity: one ornamental, one fluid, with a bright interior that turns opening the box into the moment.

Oven Lovin box dielines, from flat dieline to colour, pattern and final design
09 — Client · Identity, packaging, social

Que Cookie

A cookie that becomes the Q.A playful cookie brand built around one friendly character. Its face and mood carry from the logo to the stickers, the box and the shop sign, held together by just two colours: coral and mint.

10 — Personal project · Restaurant identity

Rivvoro

Taste takes a turn.A contemporary creative-dining concept where every touchpoint feels considered, warm and expressive. The all-caps serif wordmark carries a custom flowing V that gives it its rhythm, set in burgundy, butter cream and a soft sky blue, from the shopfront to the wrapping paper.

Rivvoro colour palette and wordmark pattern
11 — Client · Beauty salon identity

Abaje

A calm, premium salon experience.A refined serif wordmark, a soft plum and blush palette and organic shapes that carry through every touchpoint: signage, service menu, rewards card, bags and towels.

12 — Brand identity · Packaging

Cava Coffee

One simple idea, three ways.A coffee brand built around one simple shape. The wordmark and the symbol come from the same geometry and carry across every cup, bag and sleeve.

About

A creative partner for brands, from first idea to final file.

Since 2022 I've been the senior designer behind FIZ's campaigns, and I work with brands on identity, packaging and art direction, giving every project the attention it deserves. Clients come to me for a single identity or packaging project, and agencies bring me in when they need an extra senior designer.

Personal projects (Surā, Kernio, Skild, Liwan, Rivvoro) take an idea from concept to applications; their mockups and scenes are AI-assisted.
