Community Builders

Affordable housing in the American West.

OPPORTUNITY

Giving back has always been a core tenet of 970 Design, so we were thrilled to work with Community Builders who came to us looking for web design, content strategy, and branding to help them better communicate their organizational goal–helping to make affordable housing available to everyone throughout the American West.

Approach

We began by incorporating web design principles that reflected the organization’s vision. Bright, vibrant colors were chosen to align with its aspirational mission, while clean, straightforward fonts enhanced the delivery of Community Builders’ powerful message. To connect users with the organization’s resources effortlessly, we focused on creating a minimalist, user-friendly website with an intuitive navigation structure.

As part of the visual identity, we developed a set of four custom icons that reflect the core priorities of Community Builders. Each icon was thoughtfully designed to balance clarity and personality, using simple geometric forms and the brand’s vibrant color palette to maintain consistency across digital and print applications.

Results

We established Community Builders to make a meaningful impact on some of the most challenging issues faced by communities in the American West. In doing so, we’ve developed a process of continuous monitoring, evaluation, research, and learning to accurately measure our impact and improve our work in building more livable communities for all.
