Regardless of the scale of work or the challenges that come our way, excellence is always our standard. We are prepared to shape what comes next.

BRAND LOOK AND VOICE

COMMITTED PARTNER

Our relationships with our clients and with each other are of the utmost importance. A promise made is a promise kept, always. We are good listeners and thoughtful in our approach because your voice is as important as ours.

SOLUTION-ORIENTED

Every project presents countless opportunities to make things better than before. We thrive on that challenge, every day.

STRAIGHT-FORWARD

We tell it like it is. There are no surprises here. What you see is what you get. Sincere. Direct. Genuine.
If it needs to be said, we’ll say it. If it can be shown through action rather than words, even better.

DRIVEN

We are relentless learners, always eager to discover what’s next. We’re always asking why, and never satisfied with taking the easy way over the right way.

Q & A

What is a Brand?
A company’s brand is made up of all the elements that you consider when you think of that company: their logo, their customer service, the way they treat and train employees, their packaging, advertising, and marketing, and the quality of their products and services. A successful corporate brand aligns the company’s strategic vision, organizational culture, and external perception to help themselves stand out in the marketplace.

Why Renovate the Swinerton Brand?
As Swinerton has grown and changed, it’s now critical to focus on making sure our company is known in the marketplace for every single thing that we do. We’re one of the premier builders in the nation, but we’re also so much more than that, and we’re focused on positioning ourselves for the long term. With a refreshed, modern brand, we believe that we can better leverage every innovation and every success story, helping spread the image of Swinerton as a company that people want to work with and that employees want to work for—in all the markets and geographies that we serve.

Swinerton has some powerful opportunities for growth ahead. We have expanded our geographies. We have expanded our markets. We have expanded our services. We have created new business lines and new opportunities all across the company. All of these avenues have set us up for an incredible future, and it’s imperative that we capitalize in all of those places in order to help our company succeed.

Why did Swinerton add the new shade of blue to the logo?
Swinerton’s new Future Blue is a secondary identity color that was chosen because it’s a modern color that pairs well with the additional colors in Swinerton’s palette—including the historic blue and orange as well as the new colors that are part of the Swinerton brand. And that’s important to note: the classic Swinerton blue and orange are staying in our brand materials in many different ways. That isn’t changing.

Our creative experts tried to think holistically about how Swinerton’s brand colors work together, and we determined that in order to move the brand forward, we needed something that fit in with the classic blue and orange, but also pushed Swinerton into a new territory. We want the brand and the logo to represent where we’re going as a company, and that’s in a slightly different place than where we used to be.
