The Brief.

Kati Baba needed an identity that could do something hard: feel genuinely rooted in Pakistani street food culture without looking like every other heritage-revival brand. The challenge was authenticity without nostalgia — modern enough to live on Instagram, grounded enough to feel real.

We built around texture and warmth. The mark draws on Urdu calligraphic reference without directly imitating it — abstracted into a bold, ownable shape. Colour and material choices do the cultural work: earthy tones that reference spice and clay, offset with high-contrast typography that reads clean on packaging and phone screens alike.

The brand launched at a pop-up. They sold out the same weekend, and had three more events booked the following week.
