Project Brief
The identity system they had was limiting. So, they approached me to rebrand from their current look to a more cohesive visual identity system that aligns with the essence of their brand and resonates with their target audience.
Approach
It all began with a discovery call to understand in great detail the problem Houseriver seeks to solve. From the call, I got insights into how the name emerged too. After studying the brand strategy, I started doing my research to understand the industry standards. I also checked their competitors to find the best ways to standout among them. The result of all these emerged from an inspiration I got from the visual metaphor of a flowing river (signifying "abundance") and a tree (signifying "generations"). I anchored the visual direction on the concept of Connected ties; living in abundance.
Impact
It's a privilege shaping how Houseriver is perceived through the visuals I created. I later heard of how the visual system was cohesive enough to resonate with the target audience.
