Al-hub is the Arabic word for love. Love is a very important theme in Arabic culture and there are at least eleven different words for love in the language. This has to be one of my favourites, both how it sounds and in its written form. The wave-like motifs within the border are inspired by Persian paintings and love poetry. I matched the raspberry colour to an image I found of a Malian man in his beautiful traditional headdress.
