LOXONE wanted to grow. As a leader in smart home and building automation, they’ve built a proven ecosystem around a smart, integrated system. But now, they wanted to build across Europe, Canada, the USA (and more!), broaden their product portfolio, and keep building on the trust they had already earned. So, the job wasn’t to reinvent LOXONE. It was to build the tools to carry that momentum further.
With strategists, designers, and communicators working together from day one,we worked side by side to shape the next phase. Not just responding to one isolated need but aligning the entire system (apps, website, product) around where the company wanted to go. It all had to work together, because that’s how people meet Loxone in the real world.
Through workshops, interviews, desk research, and surveys, we mapped the wider decision-making landscape. Not just who uses the system, but who influences adoption, specification, recommendation, and trust. We looked at how the brand travels through an ecosystem that includes electricians, builders, architects, business owners, and end users. Most importantly, we found what makes LOXONE distinct, what makes it valuable, and what gives it the spark to grow globally.
On one side, the PUSH: the electricians. The people who specify, recommend, and install. They needed to see LOXONE as the smartest, simplest, most integrated automation system available. On the other side, the PULL: architects, property developers, homeowners, hotel guests, end users. The ones who needed to desire it. LOXONE’s opportunity lay in the balance.
A key part of the new brand design is the ‘HALO’, inspired by LOXONE’s all-in-one system, where layers of intelligence run your building. It’s one system that works as a single, unified whole, or as many individual ones in the background. The ‘HALO’ holds that idea in one place. Around it, we shaped a brand character to resonate with new target groups, something more open, human, and aspirational.
For a growing tech brand, brand isn’t just the thing people see at the end. It’s the thing that helps everything make sense as the business expands. It gives teams a shared direction. It helps partners explain the offer. It makes new products feel connected to the same idea. It helps people understand not only what the system does, but why it matters. For LOXONE, the brand became a way to keep the whole ecosystem moving together: push, pull, product, partner, and experience.
With the strategic foundations in place, our work continues deeper into product, interaction, and communication, helping ensure that every part of the LOXONE world feels connected, intuitive, and ready for what comes next.
