Creative Brief


Real Estate buy, sell or rent gateway for Saudi Arabia

3a8ari عقاري

No

"3a8ari" in Arabic means three things:

- Real Estate
- Realtor
- My Real Estate (e.g. My Land, My Home, My Building, My Apartment etc...)

The use of the numbers "3" and the "8" are to substitute the Arabic letters which do not exist in the English alphabet and are commonly used in the online world and while chatting referred to as "Arabish" the mixing of Arabic and English.

The purpose of our site is to enable buyers, sellers, renters, leasers, real estate agents and all to have a gateway to post, search and research Real Estate in general, apartment search, buy a home as well as other industry related service and exclusively in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Please use colors that would appeal to a larger audience without skewing towards a specific gender or age group. The colors should be clean and uniform, work well together when combined, are attention grabbing and easy on the eyes.

not sure

I would like to the designers to deliver on the brief in full but I would also like them to consider creative options/submissions in addition to the traditional options as well.

    I am curious, I carefully adhered to your requests, but yet all of my drafts were immediately eliminated... I am wondering what it is that I missed?

    ********************************************* General Comments to All Designers: ********************************************* In the last 24 hours of the competition I expect many last minute submissions that will not be able to make the necessary changes and revisions to their designs if they start from a base that is not inline with the brief or general design comments left in the commentary section of the page. I recommend reading the brief and the comments before starting any of the designs at this late of a stage. I have not yet awarded and finalized my decision as there are too many great designs to choose from. But there can only be 1 Winner and only one design that will be given the 5 STAR Rating. Your chances of submitting a winning draft is still very possible. But at this point only the best and only the highest quality submissions can truly compete. Go ahead and give it your best shot.

    @rahul4logos Best of luck to you. But Rahul I have listed in the general commentary if elimination without feedback is based on the following previously stated: "Any of the design drafts that do not meet the requirements of the brief as well as the below listed will be automatically eliminated from the competition without need for feedback: 1. Overall logo design is simple, clean, easy to understand, unique and original. Please use simple text in a solid color (No gradients or dual tone fonts) 2. "عقاري" in Arabic is the focus of the logo text and should be the primary part of the design. Remember letters must be connected and not submitted as individual standalone letters or misspellings 3. "3A8ARI" in English is a secondary element which should be much smaller and shown as the URL (3A8ARI.com or www.3A8ARI.com) 4. The home icon should be simple and easily recognized by anyone seeing the logo (Real Estate) 5. An overall design that says LUXURY, LUXURY, LUXURY 6. A Color Theme that is classy and elegant. Avoid tacky and bright colors that degrade the overall design image 7. Creativity and design quality in integrating / combining the Arabic font as part of the "home icon" will be a bonus 8. Blatant copying/plagiarizing another designers work will be eliminated "

    ********************************************* IMPORTANT General Announcement to Designers: ********************************************* As a reminder to all designers are the rules I have specified earlier. Also note that the CHALLENGE of this contest which I have clearly listed within this project lies within how YOU can capture the requirements of the project brief and yet design a logo which can stand out amongst the crowded world of brands and logos in the real estate world. The same sort of logos which all of you designers have submitted is shown here in our contest. The reality you see here in the contest is the reality in the real world. It is very difficult and requires a great designer to create a real estate logo design which is beautiful, simple, clean, easy to understand, unique, original and stands out of the crowd. So instead of running away from the challenge which I have seen some designers already post they were quitting or you can take on the challenge and see if you can design what others have been too scared to do!!! Best of Luck to all of you!

The following resource might be helpful http://new.myfonts.com/search/charset%3Aarab type in the word "عقاري" And you will see a your word displayed in several fonts You are not required to use the above this was merely a reference possible guidance. I had not found a link which refers to other Arabic fonts. If you have examples you would like to post or send me through private message than feel free to do so.

    Draft #186: Cons: - Colors and theme still do not reflect luxury and elegance - Quality of graphics can still be improved. Required Changes: - Fix the letter "ر" in the word "عقاري" it appears low and laying on the line - Once an optimal arrangement of the letters in the Arabic font is in place further fonts can then be explored I look forward to seeing the rest of your submissions as I see a great deal of potential in your design capturing the above comments.

    Draft #178: This design will be accepted as an alternative to Draft #177 which will be eliminated. There is a lot potential to further improve this logo with the some optimization and fine tuning. Pros: - Logo combines both text and home icon into one design - Captures the industry type "Real Estate" in a simple, unique and relevant design Cons: - Colors and theme do not reflect luxury and elegance - Quality of graphics can be improved - In the word "عقاري" the last two letters "ر" and "ي" appear to be distant and separated. Required Changes: - Fix the letter "ر" in the word "عقاري" it appears low and laying on the line - Work on the height of both roofs the smaller left one extends to cut off the "ر" in the word "عقاري" also the larger right appears to be too high relative to the small one - Once an optimal arrangement of the letters in the Arabic font is in place further fonts can then be explored I look forward to seeing the rest of your submissions as I see a great deal of potential in your design capturing the above comments.

    Draft #177: @tokyodriftshop I had stated before your posting of this draft the following rule in the latest general comments to all designers: 8. Any blatant copying/plagiarizing another designers work will be eliminated I had also given DanArt who submitted draft #154 they same instructions to reach a very similar design to yours. Given the great deal of similarity in your designs and in order to avoid any confusion, design copying and more than one designer working on the same design you will have to do one of the following: 1. Withdraw this design and work on a design that is more unique and original to your work around the same theme and design concept around your current draft 2. If DanArt does not resubmit a design that meets my comments on draft #154 within 24 hours then you may resubmit the same design Thanks for your cooperation

    Draft #154: Till now is the best attempt from the drafts submitted to integrate both the text and home icon design into one. There is a great deal of potential to further develop this logo with the right changes and fine tuning. Pros: - Logo combines both text and home icon into one design - Captures the industry type "Real Estate" in a simple, unique and relevant design Cons: - Colors and theme do not reflect luxury and elegance - Quality of graphics can be improved Required Changes: - Try an option without the moon/sun/crescent above the house - In the word "عقاري" the last two letters "ر" and "ي" can be modified slightly to complete the shape of the house: a)raising and reducing the size of the "ي" the last letter b)then extending the "ر" below it to complete the line going left. c) further aligning both letters to complete the design of the house d) once a nice arrangement of the letters in the Arabic font is in place further fonts can then be explored I look forward to seeing the rest of your submissions as I see a great deal of potential in your design capturing the above comments. Best of luck
