With their combined in-depth knowledge and similar work ethic of hard work and dedication, this would position the new company as highly respected market leaders.</p>

<p>The challenge was to create a new identity for the company as well as communicating the merger. It was important that the new brand visuals still retained the excellent brand equity that had been built over the past 10 years, whilst highlighting the exciting opportunity that came from combining the teams.</p>

<p>We developed a refreshed visual identity which brought together the history of the two agents, creating a blend combining the best of both brands. Redrawing the original form of the Chantries icon—a tree, reminiscent of wrought iron gates, combined with the rounded geometry of the Pewleys visual language, we created a simplified marque. Pairing this with an elegant, heritage typeface, the new logo references the original town and country aesthetic styling.</p>
<p>With twenty staff operating out of three offices, in Guildford town centre, Shalford and Merrow, the company is uniquely positioned to offer its clients unrivalled local coverage and a wealth of experience in the local market. We worked with them to build out consistent brand collateral—from their office signage to adverts in the local property newspapers.</p>

<h2><span class="heading-2 heading-3">PROPERTY SEARCH</span></h2>
<p>Integrating with Chantries &amp; Pewleys internal property system, we created a bespoke map to allow easy searching of their properties, both as an online and presentation tool while on property visits.</p>
<p>Additional to this, you can shortlist your favourite properties and keep them for reference—or share with friends or family.</p>
