Case Study: Homesource Builders

INTEGRATED BRANDING AND MARKETING PARTNERSHIP

Overview

HomeSource Builders engaged me early in their growth to establish a cohesive, professional brand presence that could scale with the business. Over the course of a decade, the business expanded into three distinct but cohesive brands: HomeSource Builders, HomeSource Design Center, and HomeSource Realty.

For more than a decade, I served as their long-term creative partner, leading strategy, design, and production across every touchpoint to ensure consistency, clarity, and measurable impact.

ROLE:

Creative Director & Strategic Lead

SCOPE:

Website design & development, print collateral, signage, advertising, digital campaigns, and social media

  • HomeSource Builders Website

    Mobile-friendly website designed to showcase projects, build trust, and drive qualified leads through clear navigation, strong visuals, and conversion-focused structure.

  • HomeSource Design Center Website

    Project-focused experience highlighting services, finishes, and inspiration galleries while guiding visitors toward consultations and in-person visits.

  • HomeSource Realty Website

    Directed development of property search platform featuring listings management, intuitive filtering, and streamlined lead capture to support ongoing sales activity.

    Environmental branding system extending the identity across job sites, offices, and events to ensure high visibility and consistent brand recognition.

  • Large-Format Booklets

    Comprehensive sales and marketing booklets designed to support in-person presentations and communicate offerings with clarity and professionalism.

  • Print Collateral

    Brochures, flyers, and sales materials developed as a cohesive toolkit to support campaigns, events, and day-to-day marketing needs.

  • Local Magazine Advertising

    Targeted print advertisements created to build local awareness, reinforce brand credibility, and drive inbound inquiries.

  • Truck Graphics & Branded Uniforms

    Vehicle graphics and team apparel transformed field crews into mobile brand ambassadors and increased visibility across service areas.

Challenge

As the company expanded, the marketing became increasingly fragmented across platforms and materials. They needed a unified brand system that could support ongoing campaigns, attract new customers, and maintain a professional, trustworthy presence across web, print, and physical environments. The goal was to create a scalable marketing foundation that would grow with the business while keeping execution efficient and consistent.

The original logo was outdated and didn’t work well for the growing business:

(Original logo)

I developed a new, flexible logo system with complementary color palettes and typography, allowing each brand to feel distinct while maintaining a cohesive, recognizable family identity across all formats.
