Daggers & Pearls

A distinctive voice, rooted in Gulf heritage.

Podcast identity for Wael Al-Sayegh.

Original horizontal signature

Dagger. Sea. Shore. Pearl.

The identity brings four elements together inside a microphone: the dagger, turquoise sea, white sand beach and pearl. Gulf heritage becomes a visual language for a distinctive voice.

Color and lettering

Ocean blue and turquoise lead the palette. Sky blue, sage and warm sand continue the layered landscape within the microphone. The original logo lettering remains intact, paired here with clear supporting type.

The identity in use

A white water bottle, ivory notebook, listening screen and broadcast microphone bring the identity together in one bright, considered setting.
