Brand Identity

Subul

2025#Logo#Visual Identity#Islamic

Overview

Subul needed a brand identity that felt as sacred and intentional as the products it sells — not just another logo slapped on a religious storefront.

Challenge

Lebanon's Islamic retail market is saturated with stores selling nearly identical products — Islamic items - accessories, Ahlul-beit related products, with generic branding that makes them indistinguishable from one another online.

Solution

A logo and identity system built on Islamic Styled motifs from sites photographed By me at the shrine of Sayyida Ma'suma in Qom, paired with a custom Arabic wordmark.. Granting the brand in real sacred architecture and setting "Subul" apart in a single glance at the feed.

About

I've helped brands find their voice through visual identity, assisted visuals, packaging, and social media. I believe great design is quiet confidence: every grid line, every margin, every letterform placed with intention.
