Diversity in design
Catering for the diverse audience, we implemented a duel read solution to the booklet, enabling visitors to learn more either in English or Arabic. Due to Arabic being written from the left we came up with a design that enabled a user to flip the booklet, demonstrating the collaborative nature of the two cultures.
