Brand Visual Identity Development

Al Shindagha Museum brand identity stems from Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum’s House, which stands out as larger than many other buildings in this area.
This house was built in stages over many years, resulting in a unique building which resembles the way Dubai slowly grew and took form.

Al Shindagha Brandmark

Al Shindagha Museum brandmark designed and developed to honour the late ruler Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum, and inspired by his house—created by the outlined structure of a building made in 1894, connecting our past with our future.

The Kufi calligraphy is used to spell out ‘Al Shindagha’, whilst also created by the shape of the house when looked at from a bird’s eye view. The architecture of the house, as well as its windows’ curved edges are added to the font to soften the edges.
