Year

An identity for Aljalal for Hajj & Umrah: an eight-pointed emblem of interlaced bands drawn from the Tawaf, Islamic pattern and calligraphy, custom Arabic and English wordmarks, and a palette of deep purple and pale pink.

Role
Logo, custom wordmarks, visual identity

An identity for Aljalal for Hajj & Umrah. The emblem, an eight-pointed star of interlaced bands, draws on three sources: the circling of the Tawaf, Islamic pattern and Arabic calligraphy.

Three photographs on purple, labelled in Arabic and English: the Tawaf around the Kaaba, Islamic pattern, and Arabic calligraphy carved in stone.
Inspiration
The emblem in pale pink on deep purple: interlaced bands turning around a small square, forming an eight-pointed star.
