Graphic Designer

Company Overview

Kahani is an independent PR and marketing studio focused on the UAE’s rapidly changing hospitality space. The agency is run by a team of creative specialists across design, photography, writing, and public relations, with a strong emphasis on building memorable brand narratives.

This is a collaborative setting where visual storytelling is central to the work.
