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.
- 4 yearssenior designer, Nov 2022 – now
- Every weekin-app offer banners
- Every weekend1–2 campaigns for email, WhatsApp and pop-ups
- Major launchesup to 10 key visuals, resized for every platform
Weekly banners
A new set every week for the app home screen: offers, new arrivals and seasonal moments, built on the same grid and type.
In-app pop-ups
The offer that greets you when you open the app. One idea, one number, readable in a second.
The welcome journey
A 25% first-order offer that turns every delivery into the next unlocked reward. One campaign, told across a reel, five emails and a progress tracker.
Launch reel: motion design in After Effects.
Newsletters
Long-form emails that work like a mini shop: themed edits, clear categories and one button at a time.
Social and occasions
Feed posts for launches, everyday moments and the dates that matter in Kuwait, from Gergean to Eid.
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.
Rocket

Bag
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Brands in motion.

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.
