02 / IDENTITY SYSTEMS

Three marks.
Three visual voices.

Each identity gets its own space.
Its own character. Its own story.

01 / PERSONAL IDENTITY

K + NANGULAR / INTERLOCKING / GEOMETRIC

KHALID NOVAN

K + N

GEOMETRIC MONOGRAM

An interlocking letter monogram

The initials K and N combine into one mark through straight lines and sharp angles. Its geometric construction feels strong and cohesive, while the spaces between the lines help define the letters.

The symbol alone is a monogram. Paired with the Khalid Novan name, it becomes a combination mark: symbol and wordmark.

02 / ARABIC IDENTITY

FannCIRCULAR / FLUID / EXPRESSIVE

FANN / ART

Fann

GEOMETRIC ARABIC WORDMARK

A geometric Arabic wordmark

The Arabic word Fann (art) is reinterpreted through circles, arcs and dots. The letters themselves form the mark, making it a wordmark with an abstract geometric construction.

Repeated curves give the word a visual rhythm. Warm ochre and ivory create a calm artistic contrast, balancing the reading of the word with appreciation of its form.

03 / INFORMATION DESIGN IDENTITY

i graphRADIAL / LAYERED / CONNECTED

I GRAPH / VISUAL INFORMATION

i graph

COMBINATION MARK

A combination mark: name and geometric symbol

The i graph name is paired with open concentric arcs in blue and turquoise. It can therefore be described as a combination mark: a wordmark joined to a geometric symbol.

The repeated arcs and their different lengths recall circular charts and layers of information. This rhythm visually connects the mark to the infographic poster series and gives it a recognizable shared identity.

03 / THE PERSON BEHIND THE WORK

A designer's eye.
An educator's perspective.

I believe good design helps us understand the world, and education gives us the tools to reimagine it.
