Borka is a direct-to-consumer fashion accessory brand based in Portland, Oregon. They design and hand-make leather goods from locally sourced materials. The name “Borka” is part of the founder’s personal history. When she was born, her older brother couldn’t quite pronounce her name. Hence, “Bekah” became “Borka,” and the malapropism lives on. To create the Borka logomark, Studio DAD Partner and Designer Tess Donohoe worked closely with the client. The final mark is both cheeky and refined, much like the brand itself.
