Branding, 3D and launch films for developers in Saudi Arabia

TBO produces the brand, the imagery and the film a residential development is sold on, for developers in Riyadh and across Saudi Arabia. We work remotely from Curitiba, Brazil, six hours behind Riyadh, in English, with four working days shared every week.

Saudi Arabia already counts more than 20 branded residence projects, and the Middle East and North Africa have grown the model faster than Asia-Pacific over the past five years. A branded or masterplanned development sells before it is built, which means the brand, the renderings and the film carry the sale for most of the cycle.

Our published coverage of the region is centred on Dubai for now, which is where most of the evidence on off-plan and branded sales in the Gulf comes from today. So this page sets out the Gulf mechanics that coverage documents, and how the work with a developer in Riyadh would run: the time difference, the working week and the working language.

Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, in our coverage

  • Saudi Arabia counts more than 20 branded residence projects, alongside London, in a global ranking led by Dubai (60+) and Miami (45+). Read the analysis
  • Branded residence schemes in the Middle East and North Africa grew 187% over five years, against 55% in Asia-Pacific, according to Savills. Read the analysis
  • Branded residences sell at an average 33% premium over comparable unbranded luxury homes worldwide, per Savills. Read the analysis
  • In Dubai, off-plan resale transactions fell 51% year on year in the first half of 2026 while primary off-plan sales fell only 1.5%: in the Gulf, the end buyer has held while speculation retreated. Read the analysis

What we do here

What we produce for a launch in Saudi Arabia

Visualization for sales before handover

Stills, aerials, masterplan imagery, film and interactive tours from the architectural drawings, for the sales centre, investor material and a campaign that has to run before the building exists.

Brand and naming

Positioning, naming and identity for a development or a developer brand, including branded residences, built on a brand platform the whole campaign can repeat.

Launch films

CGI or mixed launch films for events, the sales centre and social cutdowns, produced from the same 3D assets as the stills.

Working with your Arabic team

TBO works in English and Portuguese and does not write Arabic copy in-house. For a bilingual campaign we work alongside your Arabic copywriter or agency, and we say so before the proposal, not after it.

The full scope of each discipline, both engagement models and the work already delivered outside Brazil are on the capabilities page.

Working remotely

Working hours with Saudi Arabia

Neither Brazil nor Saudi Arabia observes daylight saving time, so the gap never moves. 8:00 to 12:00 in Curitiba is 14:00 to 18:00 in Riyadh. Your Sunday brief is read first thing on our Monday; and work delivered on our Friday is waiting for you on Sunday morning.

Working with TBO in Saudi Arabia

Yes, remotely and in English. Riyadh is six hours ahead of Curitiba all year, so our morning overlaps your afternoon. The working weeks share Monday to Thursday; a brief sent on your Sunday is picked up on our Monday morning.

Not in-house. TBO works in English and Portuguese. For a bilingual campaign, TBO works alongside the developer’s Arabic copywriter or agency, who writes and signs off the Arabic text.

More than 20 branded residence projects, by the count cited in our coverage, alongside London and behind Dubai, Miami and Bangkok. Savills reports that branded schemes in the Middle East and North Africa grew 187% over five years, against 55% in Asia-Pacific.

Stills and films are modelled in 3ds Max and Corona Renderer. A typical package of exterior stills takes 3 to 4 weeks from an approved 3D model. Scope, revision rounds and deadlines are fixed in the proposal for each development.
