The Season is a city-wide celebration of the Riyadh city in itself. This grand celebratory festival of the Saudi Seasons demanded a grand application that could capture the essence and magic of this season that features the showpiece of modern Saudi Arabia.

Our client needed dynamic native applications for iOS and Android along with a web platform that could help them boost tourism in Saudi Arabia, generate revenue through new streams and provide a convenient platform for tourists to guide them in exploring the extraordinary activities of a citywide extravaganza - the Riyadh season events.

We also assisted our client in building a dedicated website, a Content Management System (CMS) and a customer care panel to streamline the backend process.

A SUPER SMOOTH
USER FLOW THAT
CAPTIVATES

A great product design is the result of excellent user research. That’s why we studied the app’s users thoroughly and created an information architecture that not only entices the users but also makes them a part of Riyadh’s land of dreams.

We used the tree structure or a trickle-down-effect and placed broader categories on the top, followed by sub-categories that users can navigate through. The user flow is seamless, and the architecture is focused on the user’s goals and cognitive effort usage.

COLOR PALETTE

We created a warm, visually appealing, and engaging color palette that resonates with the brand’s tone of voice and compliments its visual design language remarkably. We made a deliberate choice to incorporate colors that stimulate customer engagement and bring attention to Riyadh's brand.
