About Sheikh El Burger Logo Branding

In the Arabian culture, the word 'Sheikh' describes the highest ranking attained for gratitude, fairness, humbleness and positive leadership. This is how the brand was positioned: slang the target audience could relate to and say in their everyday communication. Common word of mouth that translates to quality, heritage and market leadership. The moustache is the 'Sheikh' trademark, the experienced, iconic male figure of the Middle East. For that, it was used with design elements that were bold, striking, stacked in their lettering and packing an eye catching punch.

Grand Interview

Your innovative fusion of Arabian cultural elements with modern branding in Sheikh El Burger Logo Branding earned recognition with a Bronze A' Design Award - could you elaborate on how you balanced traditional symbolism with contemporary design principles?

Through my experience and study of the basics of graphic design, I must be contemporary with everything new, and when I linked the Arab culture and design symbols, there was a thoughtful integration between the artistic sense factor and symbols with the mustache to present a modern design form that is easy to understand and simple in its composition.

The mustache element in Sheikh El Burger Logo Branding serves as a powerful cultural symbol - what inspired you to choose this specific visual representation and how did you ensure it would resonate with your target audience while maintaining brand authenticity?

This is how I positioned our brand: slang that our target could relate to and literally say in their everyday communication. Slang that translates to quality, heritage and market leadership.

In developing Sheikh El Burger Logo Branding, how did your understanding of the word 'Sheikh' in Arabian culture influence your typographic choices and overall visual hierarchy?

In Arabic culture, the word “Sheikh” is a colloquial term that refers to the highest rank a person can attain due to their gratitude, integrity, humility, and positive leadership. So when you see the mustache as a logo, it means that this burger will taste and look the best.
