I turn fragmented identities and communications into one clear system for cultural organisations, festivals and ambitious public projects.

The problem

Important work can become difficult to recognise when the identity lives in one place, campaigns are rebuilt from scratch, and each platform develops its own logic.

I build the shared brand and communications system that connects those parts—making the work clearer to audiences and easier to carry across formats, programmes and public touchpoints.

What the system contains

  1. 01

    Direction

    The central decision the brand needs people to understand, trust or act on.

  2. 02

    Rules

    What stays fixed, what can adapt, and what should be avoided as the work changes.

  3. 03

    Expression

    How the brand speaks, looks, moves and behaves across different situations.

  4. 04

    Applications

    The recurring formats, campaigns and public touchpoints the system must support.

  5. 05

    Handoff

    The guidance that allows another person to continue the work without rebuilding it.

Saudi Art Map: turning cultural information into a navigable identity system.

A map designed for cultural discovery.

Saudi Art Map needed one identity capable of helping audiences navigate exhibitions, spaces and cultural activity—without separating the brand from the information it carried.
