QUALITY MAGAZIN

Quality Magazine concerned about the culture of products. Like a guidepost it helps readers to find a path through the often confusing world of products and to thereby show what matters and what not. Quality wants to give the whole story. That is why the magazine not only offers reportages and comments, but columns and images on products and their creators. We are in charge of the creative direction of the magazine’s website, including its design, contents and further development. We also contribute to the printed edition with our graphic design and participate in editorial discussions.

ARABIA'S SEAS
DIVERS PARADISE

While the Arabian Peninsula is dominated by extensive desert landscapes exposed to the full onslaught of burning sunlight, the surrounding seas support some of the most wonderful coral reefs in the world.

BOOK


ARABIA'S CYCLE OF LIFE

At a first glance the Arabian Peninsula appears to be rather hostile to any type of life: despite a few futile oases it mainly consists of dry sands exposed to intensive sunlight. However, even here a diverse wildlife exists: with his 12 epic documentary films director Jonathan Ali Khan unfolds a visual encyclopedia of Arabia’s incredible natural wealth. The countless photos in this book will sweep you away to an amazing expedition covering more than 40,000 kilometers throughout Oman, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and parts of the UAE.

BOOK


ACROSS THE UNITED
ARAB EMIRATES

Apart from impressive images of ambitious architectural projects in Dubai the other six emirates are rather unknown. To close this gap, the two photographers of Across the UAE made an extensive journey and thereby captured the particular atmosphere in each emirate. Thus the book unfolds breath-taking views on an absolutely unique and diverse desert country: From the hustle and bustle of boom-town Dubai to the solemn beaches of Umm Al-Quaiwain, from the splendid piety of Abu Dhabi to the traditional bull fights in rural Fujairah.

BOOK


OMAN ARABIA'S PARADISE

PEOPLE OF OMAN

“People of Oman” is another of Khamis Ali Al Moharbi’s masterpieces. While “Oman – Arabia’s Paradise” offers a comprehensive panorama on this exceptional Middle East country, “People of Oman” more focuses on the people: their culture, lifestyle and traditions.

offers a touching and surprising view on the everyday life in one of the most exciting and exceptional Arabian countries.
