Kelly Qiu is a broker who sells, buys, leases and handles commercial property. We made her the whole kit, for the pocket and for the lawn: a card, a For Sale sign, Open House arrows, and joint signs with Bill Song. Deep green is the ground; copper is kept for the band, the frame and the name, so from across the street you read FOR SALE first and her name second.

01The card

Three and a half inches,
and the name goes first.

Portrait at the left; to its right the name in copper, the title and four services. A deep-green band runs across the card for the phone number, with email and office beneath and a WeChat code at the right. The reverse is all green, a fine copper frame, the four services ruled along the foot. A print file with bleed, and a digital edition for sending from a phone.

Card front: a silhouette at the left, her name in copper, title and four services, a green band across the card; phone, email and address shown as pale bars

02For Sale

Thirty-two inches,
legible from across the street.

The sign is set in the order it is read. From furthest away there is only FOR SALE on the copper band; closer, the name, title and services; and only someone who stops needs the phone, email and office in the white panel. FOR SALE and the name share one Bodoni, so the sign and the card read as the same person.

03Open House

The band becomes an arrow,
one for each way.

The 24-inch Open House sign keeps the proportions of the For Sale sign and stretches the copper band into an arrow. Sign A points right and sign B left, so either side of a corner can be signed; under the arrow a white strip is left for the address, written on site.

04Joint signs

Two names,
one sign.

For listings with Bill Song there is a joint set: the same FOR SALE band, REAL ESTATE BROKERS beneath it, three resale services at the centre, the two of them either side, and their names and numbers mirrored in a copper band at the foot. Joint Open House arrows come in both directions.

05The team

One client file,
four brokers.

The pattern did not stop with her. Filed under the same client are cards and signs for three colleagues: Bill Song in navy and in green, Cecilia Yang and Kelvin Liu in green. One layout; each name and title their own.

Redrawn as vector artwork from the final 2026 PDFs: Bodoni 72 and Open Sans outlined, colours taken from the finals. The portraits in the originals are replaced by featureless silhouettes; phone, email, office address and WeChat QR code by pale bars. The eXp brokerage logo and the MLS® marks are third-party and removed, and the three service icons on the joint signs are redrawn. The opening, Open House and closing images are the flat artwork with shadows, not photographs. Bill Song’s, Cecilia Yang’s and Kelvin Liu’s kits are filed under the same client; each has its own page.
