Overview

Agave, a dynamic real estate development startup rooted in Paraguay, is revolutionizing the industry by delivering exceptional quality buildings at affordable prices, specifically tailored to meet the needs of new and burgeoning young families.

The Challenge

The real estate market is becoming increasingly harsh on young families as gentrification trends among wealthy developers make housing expensive and exclusive. Agave needed a brand identity that would connect with hard-working families and communicate affordability without compromising on quality or aspiration.

Design Approach

Our approach centered on three key principles:

  1. Authenticity: Using real photos and real people to create genuine emotional connections
  2. Accessibility: Creating a visual language that feels approachable rather than exclusive
  3. Hope: Infusing the brand with optimism and the possibilities of home ownership
