About Project: This is an old project that we designed in the year 2007. The design project aimed to bring a new visual image for the development agency (Smeps). The client asked for an iconic logo that would catch people eyes and be recognized by agency clients. The agency works with very wide range of people like entrepreneurs, small business, medium and large business, professionals, youth and farmers. Part of the agency target group are illiterate people and those people need to be able to recognise the agency visual image. They also want the final identity to be linked to Yemen. We started by doing some sketches and drafts which could reflect development concept into symbolic logo. The final result logo was a mix of 3 main concepts, the human whom is the center of Smpes projects process, the leaves which simply reflect longterm development and the Qamraia which is very famous window style in Yemen. It was a really interesting design journey and hope you like it.
