Moods rather than mortgages.

At a time when no one wanted to (positively) talk about real estate, we backchannelled our way into Millennials’ lives, building a deeper connection for the future.

With interest rates rising, the housing market was grinding to a near halt. The ‘home porn’ people were accustomed to seeing on social media had lost its appeal. The allure and everyday romance of ‘home’ was vanishing.

To keep Windermere relevant in a category that virtually lost all interest we turned to a channel people, particularly the largest home-buying generation – Millennials, used frequently inside their home: Music.

A Spotify station housed custom home-themed playlists

From Cleaning Motivation and Work from Home to House Hunting and Packing Up & Moving—we designed playlists for any mood or moment in the home.
