Worked with Hostmaker since inception – creating the identity (the lovable Sir P.John),
developing and evolving the visual language of the brand, UX/UI for proprietary tools, their first
website, their second website... And now their third website!
As the company has grown, it has scaled the team, launched services in multiple cities across
Europe, raised funding and in many ways, validated the market. This has brought in competition
and need to differentiate the Hostmaker Brand and refocus its communication from evangelizing
the category to driving conversions.
Hostmaker website started with structuring and simplifying the content for a sharp focus on the
key value proposition. The service was positioned as “Creating 5-star experience” rather than
providing commoditized services like housekeeping. This meant that focus was on benefits
rather than features.
The visual language was refined to reflect the new positioning – combining the playful
illustrations with beautiful “hotel-style” photography, an updated typographic style and a crisper
colour palette.
