How to Choose the Right Graphic Design Studio
in the MENA for Your Brand
By: Samah El Hakim

Lebanon’s design scene is full of talent, but not every studio can deliver work that truly transforms brands. The difference lies in a strategic approach that blends creativity with business insight - something we proved with our award-winning rebrand of Boshies.

When the beloved Lebanese retail brand came to us, they had a loyal customer base but an identity that no longer reflected their envisioned premium positioning. As Elias El Haddad, Founder of Boshies, put it:

"It was great working with Kook Creative Studio. A devoted team of passionate professionals, who assisted us with a step-by-step and tailor-made approach, that grasped the essence of our brand."

 

The Strategy Behind the Transformation

Our process began with deep research, Elias' insights study, analyzing competitors, and auditing market trends. We discovered Boshies' unique role as a trusted curator of contemporary Lebanese lifestyle. This insight informed every decision:

  • Reinventing their logo for better versatility
  • Balancing vibrant revolutionary tones with bold, modern teal
  • Creating custom Arabic-Latin typography for seamless branding
  • Developing cohesive touchpoints from packaging to in-store signage


The results spoke for themselves: 30% increase in social engagement, Egypt market launch, and Silver for Best Visual Identity (Retail) at the Transform Awards MEA 2025.

 

Choosing Your Design Partner
When evaluating studios in Lebanon, look for:

  • Strategic Thinking
    The best partners start with research, not sketches. We invested time understanding Boshies' market before designing anything.

  • Cultural Fluency
    Your studio should demonstrate experience with Lebanese and MENA brands through relevant case studies.

  • Proven Results
    Ask for measurable outcomes - whether increased engagement, sales, business expansion, or industry recognition like our Transform Award.

  • Transparent Process
    A clear methodology (research → concept → design → rollout) ensures you get work tailored to your needs.
