A city made by people for people
CONCEPT DIRECTION The brand identity design is derived from the City Makers vision of teams working together to improve shared services between 5 government entities. The design imparts a feeling of building and teamwork through the 5 circles representing the City Makers team coming together to align their vision by connecting & sharing their ideas and innovations towards an improved level of shared services.
BEHIND THE DESIGN Based on a customer-centric approach, the City Makers methodology lies in studying the full life cycle of a shared government service and applying design-thinking techniques to ensure that the customer journey is efficient and fluid. Hence, Mastermind developed the entire concept which connects to the customers through new ideas, a methodical, team-based approach. The design is to also portray the main goal as a stable and prosperous Emirati family as Family is the nucleus of the society.

Sana
Children at the age between 12-7 love animated cartoon characters, and that’s the main reason we came up with two Emirati characters dressed in traditional Arab attire for a personalized touch. We were very sure of one thing and that is, to create characters which had a connection with our young viewers, and that is Faheem and Sana.

PROTEIN BAR
Behind the Design
The idea is inspired by the colors of modern sports equipment that are vibrant, the contrasting colors used on the background pop the flavors as well. The division of the colors gives reference to the products section, which helps us to show the consumer on what is inside the packet, with different colors for different types of protein bar and we keep in mind the identity of the brand and always relating it to the benefits of camel milk.
More than packaging,
we created identity and narrative standards for all products that will be launched by the brand.
Character Design Dr. Bob is every kid’s hero! Your friendly pediatric dentist who cares about your child’s oral health and excellent dental hygiene.
