YNA is a fashion design brand that focuses on creating daily life wears and clothing accessories to uplift your style and make fashion more comfortable and complete. They pay more attention to the process and details as much as they do the final product. The challenge was to create and icon that best suit what their brand stands for at it core “using traditional tools to create stunning modern designs” thus keeping the feel of originality and humanness.

Letter — Visual Identity for a Multinational Company

For Letter, I built the mark around two interlocking loop forms — a subtle nod to connection and precision, the kind of detail that makes a logo feel deliberate at a glance.

I developed the full system from there: wordmark, icon mark, a bold orange-and-black palette, and mockups across ID badges, business cards, lanyards, and even a smartwatch — showing the brand holding its identity everywhere it lands.

Transforming Blueprints into Reality with Vision and Precision.

The idea for Puddin’ was to create a dessert brand that felt playful, nostalgic, and full of personality. I didn’t want it to look like just another polished food brand. I wanted the identity to feel warm, slightly quirky, and something you’d actually want to interact with. So we built the visual direction around soft, playful colours, expressive typography, and a hand-drawn illustration style. This is where we started, turning the personality of Puddin’ into a visual language.
