MyNiche was created as the younger, bolder sibling of Lat Purser, built to develop apartments with personality in walkable Southern neighborhoods. They came to Social Design House looking for a brand that felt nothing like a corporate parent and everything like a fresh point of view.

Challenge

When MyNiche was first taking shape, they needed a full brand identity that would set them apart from Lat Purser while still feeling credible in the world of multifamily development. The new brand had to feel fun, confident, and human, with room to stretch as new properties came online. They needed more than a logo. They needed a personality, a visual language, and a system that could scale across signage, swag, resident touchpoints, and a website that spoke directly to renters who wanted something different from the typical apartment experience.

Solution

We built MyNiche from the ground up, starting with a flexible visual identity rooted in warmth, humor, and neighborhood energy. The logo system, custom illustrations, and color palette gave the brand a voice that stood apart from the usual neutral-toned apartment world. From stationery to mugs to branded collateral, every touchpoint reinforced the idea that MyNiche was building apartments with soul, not just square footage.

That foundation turned into a long-term partnership. As MyNiche expanded, we helped brand multiple properties under their umbrella, each with its own personality but tied back to the original system. The website brought it all together, showcasing their growing portfolio and proving that better design leads to better places to live.
