Strategy

As a student housing brand, Charme has unique resources and opportunities, like a narrow demographic and geographic area. It also faces distinct challenges, such as a differentiated seasonal leasing cycle.

We developed a visually distinct brand to stand apart from other alternative student housing options. Using bold colors and language and lively videography we were able to resonate with a young and invigorated audience through non-traditional marketing channels and on-the-ground strategies. Our colorful brand approach provides students with a fearless lifestyle, encouraging original thinking by challenging conventions and inspiring an energetic community.

Approach

We created an energetic brand that leveraged vibrant high contrast colors, juxtaposing traditional and non-traditional artistic elements, and dynamic patterns. In brand copywriting, we ditched stilted corporate language in favor of casual messaging focused on lifestyle and aspirational possibility.

The brand lived boldly through creative signage, unexpected residential collateral, a lively community orientated social media campaign, and lifestyle videography and photography. An advanced and automated email nurture system supported the creative brand strategy throughout the entire leasing process and beyond.
