INSITE OOH Media Platform

Yateem Optician’s new outdoor promotional campaign across the UAE projects their newest discounts at full volume, transforming everyday commutes into encounters with bold, retail-driven spectacle.

Unlike their prior aesthetic appearance, the new campaign immediately grabs the viewer's attention because of the saturated red background, impossible to ignore in the context of Dubai’s neutral-toned urban architecture. It's not just the color, however; it's the psychological effect. The color red is associated with urgency, celebration, and value, all of which perfectly match the "Part Sale" messaging that dominates the design. The text is oversized and assertive, and "PART SALE" spans the billboard in a manner that's reminiscent of retail signage. The grounding force behind the campaign is the blend of heritage and modern retail sensibility, noting "est.1910" quietly reinforcing Yateem Optician's heritage, all while the clean, almost minimalist approach to the products firmly plants the brand in the modern era. The three glasses on podiums make the mundane desirable, featuring a composition reminiscent of a retail showrooms, transcribing the experience to the massive outdoor space.

Even the festive Ramadan lanterns subtly allude to a seasonal appeal, immersing the advertisement into a cultural event without overdoing it. The most effective, however, is the message itself, which reads “25% to 70% OFF.” It is clear, easy to read from a distance, and placed strategically so that the eye is naturally drawn to it after viewing the images. There is no confusion, no over-explaining, just a clear message that is being promoted through sheer scale. 

In a crowded environment filled with visual noise, Yateem’s advertisement stands out not because they have done more, but because they have done it louder. 

The new campaign took off on UAE’s hoarding billboards in the first week of March
