Designing for over 300 ethnic groups in one country.

Designing for over 300 ethnic groups in one country.

I was hired as the brand designer for Kaza, a Nigerian fintech company focused on providing micropayment services for everyday activities, from daily commutes to rural transactions. The challenge was to create a visual identity that resonates across Nigeria’s diverse cultural and tribal landscape while addressing customer biases. Given Kaza’s limited marketing budget and the lack of a functional design team, the design system needed to be simple yet striking, ensuring the brand was memorable and distinctive in the competitive Nigerian fintech space. The goal was to craft a visual identity that was instantly appealing and easily recognizable, while delivering a clear, impactful message.

Approach Taken For The Brand System

The novel approach I took involved developing a color system based on the most popular colors in each industry of the potential merchants using the product. Additionally, I created a simple poster layout system that communicated in the predominant language of each region where it would be used. The visual system was intentionally designed to be straightforward, ensuring it could be quickly and easily replicated without added complexity, making it efficient and cost-effective for Kaza's needs.
