01The brief

A centre that opens doors.

Doors is a learning centre preparing students for their school certificate exams and running workshops and summer programmes. The name already held the idea. We worked it out on paper first: panels, steps and arrows that read as a door opening and a student moving up.

We open the doors of success for you.

02The mark

Three panels, swinging open.

Three angled panels, like doors caught mid-swing, step from grey to red. The symbol sits beside a condensed wordmark in English and Arabic, and holds up embossed, foiled, printed or cut as a sign.

03The rulebook

Simple rules a small team can follow.

A twelve-page guideline in English sets out the logo versions, legibility, clear space, positive and negative use, what not to do, the red-and-grey palette, and the typefaces: Franklin Gothic for Latin and Cairo for Arabic.

04In the feed

The same panels, every season.

The panels became a frame for the centre’s social media: a cover and profile picture for launch, then greetings for Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha built from the same red, grey and angled shapes.

The result

A clear, confident mark the centre can put on a wall, a certificate or a phone screen, with a short rulebook that keeps it consistent. The angled panels carry the brand into every post and greeting.
