Who says using more than three fonts doesn’t work? Cawston Press pulled off using at least four different fonts in different colors and sizes on their tetra cartons. Looks great.

Time to give!

Yooni in Ramadan..
Published July 29, 2011 My Graphics for People 1 CommentTags: bottle sticker, ramadan graphics, sticker design, yooni bar
One of my latest projects was designing these stickers for Yooni Bar’s Ramadan Drinks. Several factors were taken into consideration during the designing process, while we also had some challenges.
Starting off with limitations, TIME was our biggest. With Ramadan around the corner, the stickers had to be designed prior to receiving the bottles! But we managed. COST was another limitation, especially that this product line is to be produced for a limited time only, but it was dealt with here by combining two drinks into one sticker which cut the printing costs by just about a half.
As for factors that were taken into consideration, the colors were given as they are the logo colors. As for they style, since the products are based on our favorite oldies (especially during Ramadan), I liked to give the stickers a washed out or worn out feel with some classic decorative ornaments.

I never really knew when to use the Typewriter fonts, or never really had the opportunity to play with it.
Typewriter fonts are the only serif font that I actually like!
Here are a few examples of random things I found that use these kinds of fonts.

I’ve had several requests to design blogger headers lately. Before I start with any design I usually take a look at what is already in the market, that is Kuwait.
I tried to take a quick glance at the top 100 Kuwaiti blogs listed in Danderma’s blog , and the top 20 blogs listed by the M code.
Here are some of the headers that I liked or found positively interesting; just in terms of personal taste.

Kids a la Mode, a classy and chic kids clothing boutique. The owner was looking for a basic, simple idea that reflects the idea behind the boutique. So i asked my sister artist to sketch me a boy and girl in oversized classy and chic clothes of grownups, isn’t that what we all did when we were kids?

These are two ads I designed for New Smile Dental Spa..
It was challenging to try to show the importance of two extremely different services in one tiny area! Not only did New Smile want to emphasize on their highly qualified dental care services, but they wanted to show that their patients will be pampered to the max! They provide a free service of all kinds of comfort, that includes massages, music, arometherapy, TV, a sea view and more..

This project started off with the idea of having a classic Soad Husni theme (only cuz the owner is a fan).. but then turned into a jazzy theme with shades of blue along with black and silver… We did not let go of Soad Husni though! The owners favorite classic is right there, in the logo. The objects (the flower, the butterfly and the circle) are all inspired by Soad Husni’s clothing !
