OSISA – Event Design Collateral

Overview:

OSISA is a growing African institution working to deepen democracy, protect human rights and improve good governance in the region. Conté Africa has been a partner of Osisa for 4 years. We have worked together on their website redesign, branding and strategy for their events and event materials.

Project Description:

For this project, we were asked to design a brand identity around the webinar event, which focused on a reimagined reparative justice for slavery, apartheid and structural racism. Together with the Osisa team, our strategy was to recreate the style of old Africa- themed literature book covers, also as a symbol of the importance of information and knowledge to the people who need it. We chose patterns illustrating African symbols such as the African mask, the African spear and the African shield, as well as colours typical of many of these literary books we used as reference.
