THE CHALLENGE
The objective was to create a contemporary apparel identity inspired by India's rich cultural heritage—one that felt premium, timeless, and distinctive, while avoiding the visual clichés often associated with graphic streetwear.
STRATEGIC FOUNDATION
The story behind 'White Beak'
White Beak draws inspiration from the Brahminy Kite, a bird widely associated with strength, freedom and cultural significance across South and Southeast Asia. Rather than illustrating the bird literally, the identity captures its soaring silhouette, translating heritage into a contemporary visual mark.
The logo development
Starting with the Brahminy Kite, I simplified its form through sketches before refining it into a clean, versatile logo that works across print and digital applications.
Logo Variations
The logo pairs a custom bird symbol with Raleway to create a clean, modern identity. It's simple design keeps the brand recognizable across different applications.
Applications at various touchpoints
