BURLINGTON, ON (September 16, 2020) – The Coldwell Banker® global organization, a Realogy (NYSE: RLGY) brand, today announced the new look and logo for Coldwell Banker Global Luxury®, aligning with the international network’s 2019 “Project North Star” rebrand.

To arrive at the new look, Coldwell Banker Global Luxury conducted an international quantitative survey of three potential logos. Top terms attributed to the logo were: Modern, Innovative, Unique, Trustworthy, and Stylish.
The brand also conducted formal focus groups comprised of group interviews, anonymous surveys, as well as interviews with top agents and brokers from across the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury network. This was to ensure full stakeholder engagement and helped crystalize the findings of the global consumer study.
