Luxury Gift Box

To capture the essence of the Majdol dates, and the taste of the person giving them, I began with a mood board. It gathered luxurious textures and rich colors such as deep burgundy, emerald green and gold, and inspiring elements like Arabic calligraphy, intricate patterns and minimalist aesthetics.

I presented the mood board to Mr. Barhoumeh, and together we discussed the key elements that would define the visual identity of the packaging.

From that conversation we defined what the box needed to carry: a custom signature, designed in collaboration with a signature artist, in both Arabic and English versions.

We explored two distinct art directions, using a palette of dark green and red with gold accents, and set the dimensions of the box so that it would present the dates perfectly. We also decided to place a personalized message inside the box, to add a touch of exclusivity to the gifting experience.

Option 1 focused on showing the natural beauty of the dates and their Arabian heritage: a palette of deep burgundy and gold, intricate Arabic calligraphy and delicate gold foil accents. Inside, a soft textured lining and a personalized Arabic message.

Option 2 emphasized a minimalist, sophisticated aesthetic: a sleek box with a subtle gold embossed signature and a clean, modern typeface. Inside, the dates sit on a bed of silk, and a personalized message in English is discreetly printed on the inside of the lid.

After careful consideration, Mr. Barhoumeh selected Option 2 for its elegant simplicity and modern appeal. Here is how it was prepared for production and how it looks finished.
