Sharjah Commerce & Tourism Development Authority needed a digital home that positioned Sharjah as a premier tourist destination — inspiring visitors and bringing the emirate's culture, heritage, events, and attractions to life.

The challenge

Sharjah Commerce & Tourism Development Authority promotes Sharjah as a leading destination and champions tourism's role in the emirate's socio-economic growth.

Its website needed to capture the breadth of Sharjah's culture, heritage, events, and attractions — and make it effortless for visitors to explore the destination and plan a trip, on any device.

Our approach

We led the creative direction and designed a fully responsive experience — structuring rich destination content, events, and attractions into clear, visual, discovery-led journeys.

Imagery-led layouts and a considered UX put exploration first, delivering a consistent, inspiring experience across desktop, tablet, and mobile.

A responsive, content-rich website that brings Sharjah's attractions, events, and culture to life — guiding visitors from discovery to planning.

Sharjah is the UAE's cultural capital — home to over 15 museums, a UNESCO World Book Capital designation, heritage districts, international arts festivals, and a coastline spanning both the Arabian Gulf and the Indian Ocean. The design challenge was translating that depth and breadth into a digital experience that felt inspiring rather than overwhelming.

We structured a large, varied content estate — destinations, events, hotel listings, seasonal visitor guides, and cultural programmes — into a clear taxonomy with strong visual hierarchies. Imagery-led pages drew visitors in to explore by theme or interest, while supporting detail pages gave the granular information needed to plan and book. The result was a destination site equally useful for first-time browsers and returning visitors — and visually distinct from the more commercially-driven tourism experiences of its neighbouring emirates.

Projects shown include live work, pitch deliverables, and design produced as part of embedded or collaborative engagements. Some work was completed as part of a wider team. Deliverables reflect the scope and direction at the time of engagement — the live experience may have since changed, launched in a different form, or not proceeded to production. All brand assets and trademarks shown remain the property of their respective owners and are displayed here for portfolio reference only.
