The studio

Small team, senior hands.

Every project is led by the people who actually do the work. No account layer, no hand-offs to people you never met.

Meridian started in 2016 with a simple observation: most bilingual brands in the region were designed in one language and patched into the other. The Arabic was a translation, the layout an afterthought, and it showed.

We built a studio around the opposite habit. Every brief is answered in both languages at once, by designers and writers who live in both. The result reads as native on either side, and it holds when your own team takes over.

We are twelve people in Amman: designers, writers, a developer and a producer. We take on a handful of projects at a time, so the people you meet on the first call are the people who ship the work.

Two languages, one idea.

We never translate a finished design. Both versions are drafted together.

Fewer, better projects.

A handful at a time, each led by a senior designer from brief to hand-over.

Hand over, do not hold on.

You leave with the files, the guidelines and the ability to run it yourself.

The team

Twelve people, one room, two scripts.

Creative direction

Sets the idea and keeps both languages honest to it.

Brand design

Wordmarks, type systems and packaging that work in either direction.

Writing, Arabic and English

Two writers who draft together, not one who translates the other.
