Brand Identity & Logo Design

Logo design and brand identity built to work everywhere your brand appears

A logo is where recognition starts. A brand identity keeps that recognition consistent on your website, social media, packaging, presentations, advertising and anywhere else your business shows up. 10turtle designs custom logo systems and complete brand identities for businesses in Dubai and across the UAE. A dedicated branding team takes the work from strategy through design and into real-world use.

Whether you're launching a new business, entering the UAE market or replacing an identity that no longer fits where your company is going, we build brands that are distinctive, practical and made to last.

One identity across every touchpoint.

Logo vs brand identity

A logo or a complete brand identity? Here's the difference

A logo is one mark. A brand identity is the system that gives that mark meaning and makes it recognisable. The logo helps people identify your business, and the identity helps them recognise it consistently. If you already have a clear brand strategy and only need a stronger logo, a focused logo project may be enough. If you're launching, repositioning or growing and need the business to look and sound consistent everywhere, a complete brand identity is usually the better investment. Our free design audit helps you decide which one makes sense for your business.

Starting point

Building a new identity, or fixing one that has stopped working?

Most businesses come to us in one of two situations. Either you're starting from zero, or you have a brand that no longer represents the business you've become. We handle both.

Build a brand identity from scratch

Starting with a blank page? We look at your business, audience, competitors and positioning before we start drawing. The result is a complete identity built around how you want people to see your business. Your identity can include a custom logo system, colour palette, typography system, iconography, imagery direction, brand voice, messaging, brand guidelines, digital applications, print applications, social media assets and website-ready brand assets.

Redesign / refresh

Redesign or refresh an existing identity

Has your brand fallen behind your business? The logo might look dated or stop working at small sizes. The colours might feel inconsistent, or the business may have changed direction. Your competitors might simply look more credible than you do. Or your current identity has recognition you don't want to lose. We audit what you have, work out what's worth keeping and rebuild what needs to change. We won't change everything just because we can. The aim is a stronger brand that keeps the recognition you've already earned.

Changing your whole company position, name, or market? That's a full rebrand, see our Rebranding & Brand Refresh team.

Services

Everything your brand needs, from one dedicated team

Brand identity is more than a logo. It combines strategy, positioning, naming, visual identity, messaging and the way all of it gets applied.

Custom Logo Design

Original logo systems designed around your business, audience and positioning.

Brand Strategy and Positioning

Define who you are, who you serve, what makes you different and why customers should choose you.

Brand Guidelines

Practical guidelines that help your team stay consistent as the business grows.

Brand and Product Naming

Names developed around your positioning, audience and commercial goals, with availability checks before you commit.

Brand Voice and Messaging

A clear verbal identity that sets how your business communicates on your website, in campaigns, in sales material and with customers.

Startup Branding

Complete identity systems for businesses launching or growing, from strategy through visual and verbal identity.

Rebranding and Brand Refresh

Update an existing identity while keeping the recognition that still matters.
Built for the real world

Your brand should work beyond the presentation deck

A brand identity becomes valuable when people actually experience it. So we plan how the identity will work everywhere customers deal with your business.

01

It ships into a real website, not a PDF

Your identity becomes a live website instead of staying inside a guidelines document. Your visual system stays recognisable across social profiles, posts, campaigns and ads. Packaging, presentations and advertising stay tied to the wider identity instead of turning into a collection of unrelated designs. Because 10turtle also has dedicated Web and AI teams, your brand doesn't have to be handed to another agency before you can use it.

Where most fail: the brand book is gorgeous, then a separate agency has to reinterpret it before anyone can use it.

02

Accessible by design, so it stays usable on screen

Your logo is only one part of the system. The colours and typography around it will end up in website headings, buttons, interfaces, ads and other digital experiences. We build accessibility into those choices so your brand stays distinctive while remaining readable and practical on screen, checking colour contrast, typography size, digital readability, light and dark backgrounds, button and interface use, responsive use and different screen sizes.

Where most fail: a brand that needs a redesign every time it moves into a new digital channel.

03

Built for people to remember and machines to understand

Customers now find businesses through search engines, AI assistants and recommendation systems, which makes consistency more important. Your business name, positioning, messaging, visual identity and online presence should all point to the same business wherever customers come across you. We design brand systems with clear positioning, consistent messaging, a structured digital presence and a consistent visual identity.

Where most fail: inconsistent names, marks and messaging that confuse both people and the systems recommending you.

How we test your palette before it ships

A strong identity should be usable as well as beautiful. We check colour contrast so your brand stays distinctive while remaining readable on screen.

Same brand colours, used safely. We tune values so your palette stays unmistakably yours and readable everywhere it lands.

All of it under one accountable partner, with a dedicated branding team that owns your identity end to end. One relationship across Branding, Web and AI.

Your brand should be recognisable wherever customers find you

When someone sees your brand on social media, packaging, signage, an ad or a business document, it should still feel like you. That's why we build the system around the logo.

How we work

A clear process from strategy to finished brand system

You should always know what we're doing, why we're doing it and what comes next.

01

Discovery and Audit

We learn about your business, audience, competitors, current identity and goals. For a new brand, we set the strategic foundation. For an existing brand, we identify what works, what's outdated and what should stay.

02

Strategy and Direction

We define the positioning, personality and creative direction for the identity, so every design decision has a reason behind it.

03

Concepts

We develop distinct design directions based on the agreed strategy. Each concept comes with a clear rationale, so you're choosing between considered options rather than random variations.

04

Refinement

Once you choose a direction, we refine the logo and identity system through the agreed revision process. We work on proportion, typography, colour, spacing, balance and practical use.

05

System Build

The chosen direction becomes a complete identity system: logo variations, colour palette, typography, iconography, imagery direction, brand guidelines, digital assets and print assets.

06

Handover and Launch

You receive an organised brand package with the files and guidelines your team needs. If you want, we can then take the identity straight into your website, digital products, marketing material and AI creative systems.

One roof

A dedicated branding team, connected to Web and AI

Your brand shouldn't become someone else's problem once the logo is approved. 10turtle has dedicated specialists in Branding, Web and AI Automation. So your branding team works directly with the people who will later build your website, digital product or automation system.

You get specialist expertise without coordinating several agencies. One relationship across all three capabilities.

Ownership

A brand you actually own

Your identity should become a long-term business asset. We create original work instead of using generic templates or reworking stock graphics.

Original logo artwork

Your final project can include original logo artwork, editable source files, vector files, web-ready files, print-ready files, colour variations, monochrome versions, brand guidelines and organised brand assets.

Clear ownership terms

The exact ownership and usage terms are agreed as part of your project scope. For trademark registration and legal clearance, we recommend working with qualified intellectual property counsel.

Built to last

We hand over editable source files and organised brand assets so you can use and develop the identity without being tied to one designer.

What does brand identity design cost in Dubai?

Branding costs depend on what your business needs. A focused logo project is a different job from a complete identity system, and both differ from a strategic rebrand involving positioning, naming, messaging and multiple applications. We scope each project around what you actually need instead of forcing every business into the same package.

2Identity ScopeWhether you need only a logo or a complete visual identity system.
3Concepts and RefinementThe number of creative directions, stakeholders and refinement rounds involved.

Branding and AI

Scale your identity without losing consistency

Once your identity is finished, the next job is keeping it consistent. You may need dozens or hundreds of creative assets for social media, advertising, campaigns and other digital channels. Our AI team can build workflows that use your approved brand system as the base for creative production at scale.

Your team can produce more content while the visual language, colours, typography and messaging stay aligned.

Answers

Logo & brand identity, straight answers

A logo is a single mark that identifies your business. A brand identity is the complete system around it, the logo and all its variations, your colour palette, typography, iconography, and the guidelines that keep them consistent everywhere. A logo makes you recognisable for a moment; a full identity makes you recognisable consistently, which is what builds trust and brand equity.

It varies widely. AI tools are near-free, freelancers typically charge around $300–$2,000 depending on experience, and professional agencies generally start near $1,000 for a focused logo and from roughly $2,000+ for a strategy-led brand kit, rising with the depth of the system. Price tracks four things: strategy depth, number of concepts and revisions, how complete the deliverables are, and whether you get full ownership and source files. 10turtle scopes transparently, a free audit gets you a real, fixed number for your project.

A focused logo can move quickly; a full brand identity system typically runs around 4–8 weeks depending on scope and revision rounds. We work to clear milestones so you always know what's next.

We present distinct, strategy-grounded directions (not a pile of templated variations), then refine your chosen direction across a defined number of rounds. We tell you upfront how many rounds are included and what counts as a revision, so there are no scope-creep surprises.

Yes, you receive 100% IP ownership and editable source files. Your kit includes scalable vectors (AI, EPS, SVG) and web-ready rasters (PNG, JPG, PDF), in colour, black, and white, with all logo variations. No licence traps, no buyout fees, no hostage source files.

A refresh is a light modernisation that keeps your existing recognition. A redesign is a more complete reimagining of the mark and system. A full rebrand changes your wider positioning, messaging, or even name. If your logo is dated, breaks at small sizes, or no longer fits who you are, a redesign or refresh is usually right, and we audit which one fits before touching anything. For a company-wide rebrand, our Rebranding & Brand Refresh team leads it.

Genuinely unique. Every mark is custom-built from your strategy, no template re-skins, no AI-generator output passed off as bespoke, so it's distinctive enough to own and to protect.

We build your colour and type systems against WCAG 2.1–2.2 AA contrast standards. The logo mark itself is exempt from contrast rules, but your brand colours end up as website text, buttons, and UI, so designing them to pass from the start keeps your brand from failing an accessibility audit later and supports ADA compliance.

That's the point of a system. Your brand guidelines plus a full set of files and an optional AI-ready brand kit keep your identity consistent everywhere, and because we also build websites and AI creative, your identity ships into the real world without a translation gap.

Both. We're one accountable partner under one roof with a dedicated team per capability, branding, web, and AI automation, so your finished identity can go straight into a live website and on-brand AI creative without changing hands.
