The logo for the Qatar Business Women Award reflects the role of women and the country in shaping one another. The logo (pictured) that bears the colours and design motifs of the Qatar national flag was designed by Fatima al-Mogunni.
The crimson hues and indented triangular pattern of the flag are retained and are seen surrounding the profile of a Qatari woman.
“The significant participation by Qatari women in the growth of the economy and the potential for its future is what I wanted to capture visually,” said al-Mogunni.
According to her, the inspiration for the logo came from the notion of female leadership in business and its contribution to the tremendous growth of the nation’s economy.
“In the logo, the female silhouette is draped with Qatar’s flag, demonstrating the role of women in shaping the country and conversely, the country’s role in defining the Qatari woman’s identity; one shapes the other,” she added.
Al-Mogunni is a former student of the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Arts in Qatar.
