As creative director, Aishah-Nyeta guided Teakeyland’s vision from its earliest sketches to its unfolding animated world. She recruited and collaborated with animators, illustrators, and designers, weaving together their talents to build a cohesive and emotionally resonant universe.

Hand-drawn storyboards and sketches for a project titled "Title card ideas v1" showcase various designs and layouts for a branding or title sequence, including hand lettering, illustrations of leaves, and collage elements.

Visual Identity

To bring the world of Teakeyland to life visually, Aishah-Nyeta commissioned a design studio to develop its branding and visual identity. Under her direction, they created the color palettes, character designs and graphic language that reflect Teakeyland’s playful spirit and environmental focus.
