Building the Live In Luxury Brand
Through the discovery phase, I learned more about Live in Luxury’s clients and the impressive properties that they service. It became clear that the firm’s expertise and client-centric approach were important to communicate. Pamela and Haley shared that every time they stage a property for sale, they find a place in the kitchen to display their good luck charm: an elephant figurine named “Elly”. The elephant represents to them strength, wisdom, and prosperity. I loved this little detail and knew we were onto something good.
Based on what I’d learned, I went to work developing a logo with multiple iterations to ensure that their brand had maximum flexibility. Inspired by their elephant charm, I decided to integrate it into their new identity.
The result was a subtle, geometric elephant icon embedded within a crest-like shape. We decided that classic serif fonts paired with a clean, simple san-serif reflected the elegance of their brand, while still giving a sense of modern flair. To reinforce the exclusive nature of Live in Luxury’s brand, we established a timeless, simple and classy color palette: black, white, and gold.
Once the logo was finalized, we moved onto the design of a full set of collateral including business cards (embossed with gold foil), postcards, letterhead, a social media kit, and a brand style guide (to ensure brand consistency). And to top it all off, we created a website that reflects the brand with a clean, simple navigation and use of the brand colors, fonts, and logo.
