Client: HandsUp Istanbul (Non-profit)

Project: Logo Design, Brand Identity and Web Design

Description: Hand Up Istanbul was a nonprofit organization and community center that empowered the people of Istanbul—both refugees and Turks alike—to address pressing social issues through capacity building, support services and educational opportunities.

Brand identity and logo development aimed to produce an uplifting and easily identifiable visual to connect within the communities. The logo was designed to be recognizable but remain versatile for project categories: such as Hand Up Refugees and Hand Up Women. Colorful and ornate Ottoman tile work that Istanbul is so well known for was highlighted within the simple hand shapes.  Website development took place ensuring English, Turkish, and Arabic versions were available to viewers.
