Eugene, Oregon
Brand Identity
April 2021
Smith & Olofson Realty Group was founded by two experienced realtors who wanted to build something different - a real estate brand that felt approachable, community-driven, and rooted in the spirit of Oregon. They came to us early in their partnership, looking for a visual identity that could carry their shared vision while breaking away from the corporate templates that dominate their industry.
We started by getting clear on what set them apart: genuine connection, local insight, and a no-fluff approach to business. Research across Oregon’s real estate landscape revealed that most competitors leaned heavily on polished, impersonal aesthetics. We took the opposite path - crafting a visual system that felt warm, grounded, and unmistakably local. Hand-drawn typography, earthy tones, and subtle textures reflected their hands-on service and connection to place.
The result is a brand that feels human and distinctly Oregonian - trusted by clients, recognized in the community, and aligned with the firm’s values. Since launch, Smith & Olofson have built a thriving business with a recognizable presence in the Eugene market, proof that authenticity can be a powerful differentiator.
