We were commissioned to craft a distinctive logotype and emblem for a then-emerging leather goods brand. The main goal was elegantly integrating the names of three sisters into the typography, while designing an emblem inspired by Turkish heritage—reflected in the crescent motifs—and visually representing the original trio's synergy.
