A logo is not a brand identity.
It’s the signature at the bottom of the letter.
Most founders start by asking for a logo.
What they need is a system that still looks like them on day 100.
Here’s what sits behind the Onselli mark 👇
- A mark that holds on any background
- A style guide, with a color system where every color has a job and type with a point of view
- The brand principles, with the logo use cases on socials, mockups, or any surfaces.
- Components that match: buttons, cards, hero, forms, etc...
- Social creatives and copy that sells the product: “Turn what you know into what you earn.”
- A live website that carries all of it
Skip one and the whole thing starts to look like a template.
A logo gets you noticed.
A system gets you trusted.

Figma Football
An unofficial football concept inspired by Figma and its visual language.
The ball was created using a custom 3D generator I built in ChatGPT, with animated interface icons and graphics developed with Claude.
Part design experiment, part exploration of how custom AI-powered tools can become part of the creative process.
The interface icons translate surprisingly well into a football identity.
First time exploring branding. Had fun bringing this one to life.
Love that orange pixel effect, Waleed! How did you make it?
