Luxury real estate branding case study
Project background: Domo Real Estate Private Limited is a company focused on improving the buying/renting experience in the luxury sector. Headquartered in Mumbai, India, the real estate company is operative in India, the UK, and UAE. The company founders, Mr. Vedant Bhardwaj, and Ms. Hetavi Jain approached Arabella Design for the branding of his company. The brief was to design a globally appealing, minimalist, simple, and yet luxurious-looking and highly powerful differentiated brand for the startup.
Brand archetype
The sage: Domo real estate
The Sage is motivated by independence, cognitive fulfilment, and truth. This archetype has a foundational identity attachment to the belief that thinking is what defines the human experience. They're also known as experts, scholars, advisors, researchers, thinkers, mentors, or teachers. Possessing a high need for autonomy, the sage values learning for its own sake because it allows for detachment from the masses and the capacity to remain objective.
A sage in any category always stays in the top position in terms of brand perception. The sage relies on knowledge and is a firm believer in the fact that goodness and truth will prevail and set us free.
Brand identity design
The logo was designed to exude luxury, trust, and professionalism to bring alive the essence of luxury real estate branding. An original and unique mark, the bold typefaces were custom-crafted to match the brand’s personality and make it highly powerful and differentiated. The line on the top of DOMO visually communicates that ‘Real Estate Starts and Ends at ‘Domo’. It also denotes a ‘roof’/‘shelter’/‘home’. Ultra spacious and distinct letters were crafted to ensure high visibility and legibility even at small sizes. The premium and sophisticated feel of the logo was achieved while keeping the design minimal.
Graphic family: Geometric (Real Estate Buildings)
Look: Luxurious / Premium / Minimal but Informative
Feel: Trustworthy / Knowledgeable
Brand typography family
To outstand in the luxury real estate market, the fonts were chosen to reflect the brand’s highest degree of professionalism and set an appropriate brand image, reasserting and adding value to all the communication made by the brand. The below set of sans-serif fonts was chosen while keeping the luxury and trustworthy look and feel in mind.
Brand color palette
We defined what colours the brand should use to express itself and bring alive the desired emotions in the customer’s mind, and help differentiate itself meaningfully in the luxury real estate market. The primary brand colour, ‘blue’, was chosen to represent the sage personality in the real estate management business, as blue signifies loyalty, freedom, and trust.
Dark Blues: Blue frequently invokes words like dependable, loyal, logical, soothing, calm, and focused. Blue also tends to increase personal productivity.
Bright Blues: The color blue represents both the sky and the sea and is associated with open spaces, freedom, intuition, imagination, inspiration, and sensitivity. Blue also represents the meanings of depth, trust, loyalty, sincerity, wisdom, confidence, stability, faith, and intelligence.
Subtle Greens: The color meaning of green is vitality, freshness, growth, wealth, balance, health, and youthfulness.
