Known around town as Barry Stewart Builders, but we know they are so much more than that! Aiming to show they are an innovative design and build company in Southland, Barry Stewart branched out and developed a couple more divisions: Barry Stewart Design, where their in-house architectural designers who are up for a challenge and will always have the right person ready for your project; and, Barry Stewart Homes, which is the division for all things ‘residential’. Whether you’re looking to build from one of their 60+ floor plans keeping it as is or customised.
Brand Redesign Strategy
We got to jump in and get creative. After establishing a plan, we started with a revamped logo that reflected the ‘new Barry Stewart’ brand. In developing concepts, we wanted to consider the story behind the company – a united brand web that offers multiple services. The services can be interconnected with one another and this was reflected in the continuous line we have incorporated in the logo icon where we kept everything connected and flowing. The interrupted lines and dashed represent the steps and stages clients are lead through to reach their goals. We created three different building styles to ensure different service areas were covered, as well as tying in with the already existing typeface, which is robust and bold. The panels are a visual tool we have used to differentiate the divisions of the Barry Stewart brand.
The colour palette has been chosen to not only reflect each division but also as a whole brand. The chosen colours are bold and create contrast when used with the Barry Stewart blue. The Barry Stewart blue is the foundation of the brand and is what helps the public connection.
We continued to work alongside Barry Stewart to create and maintain an online presence. Their website got a makeover, their Facebook page became strongly branded and frequently updated with onsite photos, building articles, and information. Once their team were ready, we handed over the reins, and with some guidance, they now maintain their website and Facebook page in-house.
FAQs
We know working with a design team can seem daunting. But here’s a few common questions that tell you a little more about working with us.
Every client and project is unique, but our objective always remains the same. Unlike other studios where you will only communicate with a project manager, every one of us is hands-on, and your point of contact will be the person working directly on your project. This ensures a more personalised and direct line of communication and allows for a better understanding and execution of your vision.
Something unique about us is we are all on the tools! What does this mean for you? Well, it means you when you meet with us and brainstorm for a project you will be talking with someone who has a good understanding of how the ideas could be executed, pick up any road bumps or even push the ideas further.

Our team is intentionally small, valuing direct client contact and having the ability to deliver a more personalised experience.
Many of the skills needed within graphic design and visual communication services relate to one another. With a strong theoretical and practical understanding (as well as a heck of a lot of experience) our team can be versatile in the services we offer.
But we also know our limits, having a range of other specialist professionals in our contact list to take charge when a required skill isn’t our strong suit.
Each of us understands the value of personal and professional development, and we never stop learning newskills or taking the time for training.
Not at all! We work with clients from various locations, and geographical proximity is not a limitation. We can communicate effectively through virtual meetings, phone calls, and email. Regardless of your location, we are committed to providing the same level of dedication and support to all our clients.
