With a long-established reputation for exceptional service, Hamptons chose to work with us after research revealed they were being held back by a brand image perceived as outdated, cold, and unapproachable. A brand concept and refreshed image that was warmer, more human and modern was required – to be applied across every touchpoint, including printed & digital communications and physical spaces.

A warm & fresh multi-layered identity combines the reassurance of traditional cues with surprising contemporary motifs. The new strapline ‘The Home Experts’ pops in ‘electric coral’ beneath the Hamptons logotype crafted in ‘stencilled serif’ on a deep, rich blue. A calligraphic ‘h’ brings more humanity to the identity while photography reflects ‘home’ and ‘relationships’, and a cheekily playful tone of voice expresses the best of real life at home. Boards say ‘BUY ME’ instead of ‘FOR SALE’.

With the general trend of reduced footfall across the network due to digital migration, we helped Hamptons rethink the role of their branches for their customers and community. Three anchor principles; a warm welcome, purposeful settings and meaningful engagement, underpinned an interior design palette of real craft, beauty and attention to detail, reflecting the service Hamptons themselves give their clients every day.

Behind the scenes

Branch Audit

Our audit of the brand’s positioning showed a brand tone that was distant and traditional. This gave us the insight for a total brand transformation that delivered tradition in a modern way by creating a healthy tension between the past and the present. The new logo and identity elements merge traditional cues such as a serif typeface and a richer dark blue with modern motifs, such as the stencil style applied to the main, bespoke-drawn logotype.

Strategic Workshops

With the goal of improving the quality of people’s lives by helping them make important and life changing decisions about property, we set out with a full brand key workshop with top level management of Hamptons. Having a primarily female board of directors, the team at Hamptons provided us with the very valuable insight of combing a feminine warm and empathic energy to a primarily business focused male dominated sector. The preferred ‘Archetypes’ CAREGIVER and EVERYMAN provide an obvious starting point for our brand transformation.
