Haniya's Design Work

The Girl With A Pearl Earring Modern Masterpiece


I recreated Johannes Vermeer's famous painting: The Girl With A Pearl Earring through a modern lens. The original painting is very simple and elegant. I kept the elegance in her look and gave the painting a modern aesthetic. I used brighter colors, created a loud background, and added new elements to her look, such as glasses and flowers to her turban. This piece was made in Illustrator.



Money Heist Netflix Banner

I designed this Netflix advertisement banner for one of my favorite shows: Money Heist. This piece was made using Photoshop and InDesign.



Vogue Magazine Cover

This piece is very meaningful to me because I always noticed the lack of representation in the media for people of color and minorities like myself, so I wanted to represent them through my work. I chose model Halima Aden as the face of my Vogue Magazine cover because she represents parts of me and other minorities. She is a Muslim, hijabi, and a black woman who is an inspiration to many who want to pursue careers in modeling or media. This piece was made in InDesign.



Ramadan Postcard

I made this piece right before Ramadan of 2021. I wanted to send out Ramadan Mubarak postcards to my family and friends so I chose this Ramadan themed image and edited the lighting in Photoshop.



Modern Music Album Art

I recreated the album cover of one of my favorite songs "Jab Koi Baat" by Atif Aslam. It is a romantic song so I used live tracing in Illustrator to draw the couple sitting, looking at the moon. I added the moon and stars because my favorite verse from the song mentions "chandni raat" (moonlit night), and also because I'm a Selenophile :)

My favorite verse:
Ho chandni jab tak raat
Deta hai har koi saath
Tum magar andheron mein
Na chorna mera haath

Jab koi baat bighar jaaye
Jab koi mushkil par jaaye
Tum dena saath mera, oh humnava


Translation:
Everyone stands by your side till there’s a moonlit night
But you don’t leave my hand even in the darkness

Whenever something goes wrong
Whenever there’s a problem
Stand by my side, my beloved



Minimalism Vector Art

This is my very first vector art I created in Illustrator. I wanted this piece to give a minimal, cute, and calming vibe.



iPhone Lockscreens

I was bored over the summer and decided to create some cute iPhone lockscreens in Illustrator. The left most screen is a simple landscape design with earthy colors. The middle screen highlights a puppy and uses different shades of brown. The right most screen uses different shades of pink and highlights a tulip.
