KAWATA CONSTRUCTION

Change the Impression of Local General Contractor

KAWATA CONSTRUCTION is a general contractor based in Mishima-shi, Shizuoka prefecture. The branding project for better new graduate recruitment started from expressing their strong will to change the impression of construction industry in the big Chinese character “Shin (which means “new” in Japanese)” on the top page of their website, as the concept of their employment brand.

Challenges

Make a Refreshing Change of Local General Contractor

The renewal of the web recruitment page requested from TEAM KAWATA, the group to make local areas thrive, aimed to change the stereotypical image of local general contractors held by job-seeking students and to create new values. First of all, we decided the process to perform concept drafting, to interview with CEO and the employees.

Solutions

Visualizing the New Urban Development

We decided to advertise KAWATA CONSTRUCTION not only by emphasizing their conventional services under entrustment, but also by making a proposal for regional revitalization and new urban development. On the top page of their website, we adopted some pop illustrations as the key visual designed after their “new urban development” that they would be involved in the future; such as spaceship, and the industrial style of the future generation. In the middle of the top page, we put Chinese character “Shin (new)” as the concept of their employment brand in order to express their will to change the impression of general contractors, their renewed organization, and their swift actions on the challenge for the future and decision-making.

Results

Overturn the Fixed Image

We could overturn the fixed image of local general contractor that they must be unrefined by showing a friendly greeting from the representative, long-interview of the employees, and their eager look at work to the new graduate students who are the main target of their recruitment. Our project succeeded to show people their strong will to challenge the future appealing the renewed image of general contractors.
