In June 2024, Forbes France spotlighted one of the most decisive moves in our company’s journey: the launch of Unorthodox Paris. But behind this moment lies a greater story — the evolution of Charley SIGNATURE as a new-generation luxury brand agency built to shape the future of prestige, digital influence, and experiential storytelling.
For more than a decade, Charley SIGNATURE has operated quietly behind some of the world’s most compelling brand transformations across hospitality, real estate, fashion, yachting, and lifestyle. With offices around the world, the agency has become a global reference for ultra-high-net-worth clientele seeking branding that is poetic, strategic, and timeless.
Now, as the industry pivots toward deeper personalization and performance-driven creative, Forbes has recognized our growing impact on the digital front through our newest Parisian division: Unorthodox Paris.

A Signature Legacy: Beyond Aesthetics, Toward Desire
Founded by Charley Baouamina, Charley SIGNATURE began with a belief: that branding, when done with integrity and artistry, becomes a form of emotional architecture. From the early days in Dubai crafting narratives for hotel icons and private clubs to more recent global ventures, the agency has developed a distinct methodology rooted in three pillars:
Beauty. Artistry. Strategy.
We are not just a branding agency that makes things look good. We create ecosystems that make brands feel indispensable. This is what has defined our partnerships with iconic names from Four Seasons and Raffles to niche entrepreneurs building generational legacies.
A Parisian Chapter: Unorthodox, by Design
As Forbes France notes, Unorthodox Paris is not an isolated launch. It is a strategic extension of Charley SIGNATURE’s global DNA. Positioned as the performance and digital marketing division of the group, Unorthodox Paris brings a refined yet data-driven approach to digital brand elevation, engineered specifically for luxury houses, hospitality brands, and high-value founders.
Led by a small team of elite specialists, Unorthodox Paris focuses on:
This is where the codes of high luxury meet the metrics of high performance. It is where the future of the luxury branding agency model is already unfolding.
The Power of a Global Creative Ecosystem
What makes Charley SIGNATURE unique is the interconnected nature of our studios. While Unorthodox Paris leads digital growth in Europe, our creative headquarters in Dubai and Miami continue to direct brand architecture, identity systems, tone of voice, and experience design at a global scale.
This allows us to serve both established global brands and emerging icons with the same level of precision and personalization. We offer everything from brand books and verbal identity frameworks to SEO-optimized content ecosystems, private label campaigns, and brand world activation across digital and physical touchpoints.
Recognition and Responsibility
The Forbes France feature is a moment of recognition and a reminder of responsibility. As the luxury market transforms under the pressures of global wealth shifts, digital decentralization, and generational change, we believe that the role of a luxury brand agency is not just to respond but to lead.
Charley SIGNATURE was built for this.
