Micasa

Micasa, a subsidiary of Howden Group Holdings, is an insurance tech startup with a mission to support companies’ growth ambitions so they can focus on the core operations they’re good at.
What we solved

A new name and identity people could trust.

Micasa needed to launch with a brand that felt warm, credible, and instantly recognizable – while clearly signaling reassurance and growth in a complex insurance-tech space. We led naming and visual identity design, then extended it into a cohesive system of collateral so every touchpoint reinforced clarity, confidence, and connection.

Architects of Business Growth

Dedicated to empowering businesses to achieve their growth ambitions, they approached us seeking a brand identity that mirrored their mission and core values. We embarked on a collaborative journey to craft a brand suite that embodies growth, knowledge, honesty, and a results-driven approach.

Our brand architects began with an in-depth discovery phase. In addition to conducting thorough research, they interviewed key stakeholders to unearth all the important details of their company mission, values, target audience, and competitive landscape.

Our Collaboration

NAMING

A Name To Remember

Howden Group Holdings wanted its subsidiary brand to exude warmth and accessibility from the first introduction. We created an impossible-to-forget brand name that encompasses a feeling of compassion and defies the norm in an often intimidating and impersonal industry.

‘Micasa’ is a play on the Spanish words “mi casa,” meaning “my home,”- but it also begins the phrase “mi casa, su casa,” which means “make yourself comfortable.” The name is just one of many elements of the brand designed to reassure its target market.

Branding

Translating Insights into Design

The logo we designed visually captured Micasa’s mission and struck a perfect balance between professionalism and approachability, reflecting Micasa’s core values. Our chosen typography supported the notion of a refined user experience, blending elegance with a touch of contemporary flair.

Finally, to safeguard the consistent delivery of this brand identity, we compiled our work into a brand bible that the team and any third parties can use for guidance in the future.

Digital Development to Tangible Brand Collateral

With the core brand identity established, we translated it into the full spectrum of essential collateral, including business cards, email signatures, and letterheads. Across all touchpoints, we guaranteed a seamless brand experience for Micasa’s audience.

Micasa’s vision for recognition as the undisputed giant in business growth enablement is now within reach. With a strong new brand presence, their client acquisition is on the uptick, and new business is predicted to continue increasing.
