Tanma is a Burmese refugee women’s cooperative in Malaysia. Their objective objective is to create a safe place for the women to earn income, to protect their rights and to empower themselves through skills and training.
This wonderful client who volunteers her time helping this organisation approach me with a job brief that they needed a strong logo to highlight these women of Burma and what they strive for.
The Tanma typeface, we tried constructing something out of the Burma font but I could not find a Mac version of the font. In the end we reconstructed the letters to make it unique.
For the overall feel, I experimented with a few options inline with the client’s brief of wanting a globe in the logo. The result is a map of Burma (Myanmar) with a photo of an actual refugee in Burma taken by a professional photographer who played a part in this project.
Client testimonial:
This logo is confirmed. Just so nice! Thanks for your patience and great work.
