    paper SAPA

    The problem was simple but relatable: young people were struggling financially, but there was no digital brand that spoke about it in a way that felt honest, humorous, and community-driven. Most finance brands felt too serious or disconnected from youth culture.

    I approached the project by positioning SAPA as “being broke, personified.” I developed a playful mascot icon that visually represented financial struggle, paired it with bold rounded typography, and built a warm, energetic color system to make money conversations feel less intimidating. The tone of voice was designed to be humorous but mindful — turning everyday financial pain into shareable, relatable content.

    The outcome was a cohesive digital brand identity that feels native to social media, emotionally resonant, and highly scalable for content, campaigns, and community growth.
