In designing the new My Kali logo, @MorcosKey 🔥embraced the fact that they're designing for a cultural magazine that is championing progress in our communities. The identity is based on a fluid logo that suggests openness, & freedom.

Morcos Key’s second visualization for @RANDCorporation visualizes the data around how millions of refugees rely on technology, specifically with cell phones. The work by @morcoskey is thought provoking, eye-opening, and makes you want to help.
