Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (3): Fathy Shehatto, AhmedAMS, Assem Mazloum

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Non-ProZ.com (asker) Sep 27, 2007:
More context X has been designing destinations for more than 60 years, so the firm has always been at the forefront of emerging luxury markets.

CHALLENGE The challenge was to design a residential community organized in a pattern similar to that of a small village, using materials and layout that were organic in feeling.

SOLUTION The Oak Valley Destination Resort consists of five major development zones that include three golf courses, multiple and single-unit timeshare buildings, hotels, an alpine ski village, retail center, retirement community, and corporate training facility. The hillside site allows for long-range and golf course views throughout the development. The palette of building materials found throughout the complex includes natural stone, stucco, and slate-covered roofs.

* I need to translate (Designing Destinations) only, which is the main job of the firm.

خبرة ستون عاماً في تصميم المرافق السياحية

Sorry, my first answer was posted before your added note.

Fortunately, I reached the text at this link.

http://www.watg.com/index.cfm?view=services&service=Architec...

Having read your additional note and the content of the above link, the translation that I believe suitable for your context is
تمتد خبرة شركة ..... في تصميم المرافق السياحية لأكثر من ستين عاماً
شركة .... لها من الخبرة في مجال التصميم السياحي مايزيد على ستين عاماً

The website refers to the firm's designing experience of interior and exterior of tourist destinations...
