Despite gaining key industry insights, The July needed a cohesive way to communicate its unique brand and offering in a busy market.
To refine The July’s brand strategy and visual identity to reflect their focus on quality, craftsmanship and detail-oriented service.
By building a clear and compelling brand strategy and identity that connects with guests and supports the group’s expansion plans.
The approach
After working with a number of different agencies to find an identity that matched their vision, The July found us. We immediately saw the stylish hospitality group’s potential and kicked things off with a thorough market research phase. Combing through everything from consumer insights to industry trend data, we developed a new positioning and brand foundation that emphasised emotional connection.
We positioned The July as a people-first hotel group, offering a warm and welcoming space in which every guest can craft their own story. This grew to become a playful, sleek visual identity that uses letters from the logo as ‘building blocks’. From this, we created a versatile layout system that can be applied across all brand materials.
