flyp

Flypping the system. How Flyp turned the UK’s thankless housing market on its head.

What’s the truth?

Selling property should be rewarding. But it’s hard. The average U.K. homeowner waits 19 weeks to lose £75,000 per sale. Enter flyp, a new property ecosystem where everyone wins. The time had come to flip everything on its head, including its brand.

How’d we turn it up?

Armed with the brand idea ‘Flip the system’, we blew an f-shaped hole through conventional property brands, giving Flyp a brand identity, website design and build that’s as dynamic, agile and colorful as they are.

We went all in on

Quite literally an upside-down house. A perfect signature for a disruptor that’s rebuilding the property market from the ground up.

Rotating 3D walls, expressive licks of typography and a colour palette inspired by building materials make this a system fit for upending the status quo.

"To say HOW+HOW transformed our brand is an understatement. From start to finish they elevated our thinking, challenged us and our ideas, and impressed us at every stage of the process. They have a killer combo of being extremely smart and extremely creative all at the same time.

"We felt completely safe in their professional and creative hands, and couldn’t be more proud of what they built for us. A brand we can leverage across all parts of the business. A brand that has empowered the entire company. A brand that we can’t wait to shout about and share with the world!"
