The Brief
Muslims worldwide observe Ramadan as a month of fasting, spiritual reflection and giving. Qatar Foundation asked us to create a Ramadan gift to express their gratitude to staff, partners and friends during the holy month.
Creative Execution
East meets West as Arabic calligraphy adorns the front of the advent calendar box. The calligraphy reads: ‘Ramadaan Kareem’. The windows of the advent calendar contain edible dates for the sole purpose of breaking the fast every day during the holy month. On the reverse side of the perforated windows, we printed hadiths or daily teachings for believers to better understand Islam. The last window of the advent calendar carries the message: ‘Eid Mubarak’.
Describe the creative solution to the brief/objective.
We designed an Islamic Advent Calendar for Ramadan which encapsulates the spirit of Ramadan in more ways than just one, acting as a peaceful gesture for tolerance.
Results
Qatar Foundation received an overwhelming number of thanks from staff and partners for this very unique gift. We also learned that many people are hanging onto the calendars. Why wouldn’t they? We think it makes a pretty sweet memento.
