Mike Douglas

Mike Douglas

BACKGROUND

Mike came to us to brand him as a different kind of realtor.  Through research, meetings, and surveys we came up with this unique traditional-looking logo.  We research the Douglas family heritage and found it’s Tartan.  Mike wanted to be known for being trusted and passionate about family, heritage, and home.

The tartan swatch evokes these characteristics while setting him apart from the plethora of same old colours traditional seen in real estate brands.

Maven Commercial Real Estate

Maven Commercial Real Estate

BACKGROUND

Stephanie Maye came to us to name her new commercial real estate company.  After extensive research, meetings, and surveys we came up with MAVEN.  One thing that sent us in this direction was a simple question and her answer.  “What do you want to be known for?”  Stephanie said, to be seen as wise and trusted.

The word maven comes from the Yiddish meyvn, meaning “one who understands.” But to be a maven you have to more than just understand a topic, you have to know its ins and outs. Often mavens are the people that you turn to as experts in a field.

Combined with her last name Maye, we found a perfect candidate.

The brand itself needed to be simple and not cluttered with an extra symbol or icon.  The addition of the horizon line was all we needed to complete this iconic and timeless brand.

Your Team has been a huge part of the BDAR Reinvention journey, and we hope to continue building on you and your team’s expertise with some of our upcoming projects in the new year!

We met the Rhubarb team at a crucial transitional time for our organization. We were taking our beginning steps in our reinvention journey. To do that, we needed to start at the beginning – our brand. After meeting with Rhubarb, we know we were in good hands with our future direction. The creative team knew what BDAR was: innovative, forward-thinking, and moving in a new direction. The logo they designed, along with the formal branding, reflected who we were as an organization. 

Since that time, we have worked with Rhubarb on a multitude of projects – each one delivered with high-quality branding and imagery. The projects are always met with a positive response from our members and instills a strong sense of professionalism within our community. This public image helps to increase confidence in our members as go-to real estate experts in the region. 

Working with the Rhubarb team has been easy and enjoyable. We have developed a process that makes projects smooth from inception through edits to completion. We work fully as a team, resulting in beautiful graphics, annual reports, posters, and other marketing materials. 

BDAR highly recommends working with Rhubarb – they are creative, able to communicate complex ideas simply, and professional yet fun! .
