Compass Fall REtreat

Compass is a design-focused real estate platform that brings real estate agents the best technology and marketing to help grow their businesses.

Every year, Compass hosts a Retreat across the country to connect, learn and build relationships with agents in different regions. Last year, 2,300 agents made their way to the great city of Austin, TX. The in-house team was asked to design a flexible brand system for the event.

AWARDS

Graphis Silver: Design Annual 2023

The team captured Austin's casual yet eclectic aesthetic with a roughened-up typeface from our toolkit and Texan iconography that blends seamlessly into local spaces.

Texas is widely known for its ranches. The type badges and icons tip the hat to cattle brands and iconic signs around Austin.

Orange has been introduced to the familiar black-and-white Compass color palette. The color addition is reminiscent of Texas BBQ.
