Mouhannad Alkousa

Mouhannad Alkousa is an independent Syrian designer based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, specializing in graphic design, branding, and visual identity systems. With professional experience in branding, packaging design, marketing, photography, and custom lettering, his work focuses on creating bold visual experiences that combine strategy with strong aesthetics. His approach to type design is influenced by branding, advertising, and contemporary visual culture, with a focus on creating expressive display typefaces that help brands stand out in competitive markets. Ugaritica, his debut typeface, reflects this vision through sharp geometric forms and a strong visual presence. Inspired by the name of the ancient Syrian city of Ugarit—home to one of the earliest known alphabets—it represents a modern interpretation of bold display typography. Through future releases, Mouhannad aims to continue developing distinctive typefaces that blend cultural inspiration with modern commercial design needs.
