Proptech branding
Buying or renting a home is stressful, expensive and full of stories about being cheated. A proptech brand earns trust by being calm, clear about money and visibly honest about every listing.

Colour
Proptech brands often borrow the colours of buildings: plaster, terracotta, stone, wood and greenery. They feel warm and grounded, and they set you apart from the blue of most portals.
Let property photos lead. Listing pages are mostly photographs. Keep the interface calm and neutral around them, with the brand colour for actions like booking a visit.
Keep prices and fees readable. Money details must meet at least 4.5:1 contrast[1], and should never be the smallest text on the page.
Type and logo
A classic serif gives a property brand calm authority, like a well-designed brochure or architect's drawing. Pair it with a clear sans for listing details, prices and documents.
A wordmark with a simple architectural symbol, such as a doorway, window or roofline drawn freshly, works well, but avoid the generic house outline that thousands of property brands use.
Design listing cards and the verification badge carefully; they are the most repeated parts of the brand.
