Saudi Hollandi Bank


6. 06. 2006



A specialised team from Al Mohtaraf worked on re-tracing 80 years of history and heritage for the first bank in the kingdom to gather all information and present it in one amassed timeline of surprising finds, interesting stories and amazing old records. The result is a beautifully designed landscape-shaped book that uses sepia images in contrast with modern full colour ones. The timeline is designated with large typographic numbers that vary between rich silvers and saturated yellows. The book was enclosed along with the annual report, which Al Mohtaraf also designed, in a silver bound package sealed with the bank’s logo.
