Marschall — brand and website for property financing on Mallorca

Marschall connects people buying property on Mallorca with financing from a bank in Germany. It is based in Santanyí, in the south-east of the island. Framequality designed the identity — a quiet, warm wordmark and a house mark — and built the website, business cards and social graphics around it.

The client and the offer

Marschall is for owners of a house in Germany, fully or partly paid off, who want to buy a property on Mallorca and would like to talk to a bank in Germany about the financing. The house in Germany can serve as possible security.

Marschall's role is deliberately narrow: it makes the contact with a partner bank. Advice, assessment and the decision are the bank's. On the island, there is a personal contact in Santanyí, with appointments by arrangement.

This is our client's business, not ours. Our part was the brand and everything that carries it.

The brand

The identity is quiet and warm rather than salesy — fitting for a decision as personal as financing a home. It consists of a restrained wordmark with a small house mark, set in a palette of cream and warm brown. The same elements run through the website, the business cards, with the wordmark debossed into textured paper, and the social media graphics.

A website that explains before it asks

Financing a Mallorca property through a German bank is not something most people have heard of. So the website is built to answer questions in the order people have them:

• What the offer is, in one sentence at the top, with one clear request button.
• Who it suits — and who it doesn't. A short "this fits you if …" list sits next to a "not the right offer if …" list, so people can decide before they write.
• How it works, in four steps: send a request, a personal conversation, the contact to the bank is made, and then the conversation with the bank.
• Clear roles. The site says plainly that Marschall makes the contact and that the bank advises, checks and decides.
• A bank in Germany or a bank in Spain? A side-by-side comparison.
• A rate calculator for a first orientation. Inputs stay in the visitor's browser, and the calculator says clearly that it shows no actual bank conditions.
• A checklist of questions and documents, online and as a PDF, with the note that the bank decides which documents it really needs.
• Guides for specific situations — a holiday home, a house in Germany that is not yet paid off, self-employed buyers — plus pages for regions such as Palma, Santanyí, Alcúdia, Calvià, Pollença and Sóller, and a page for estate agents.

Design decisions that matter

Honesty as a conversion tool

In financial services, overpromising costs trust. The site leads with what Marschall does and does not do, and it tells people when the offer is not for them — so they can decide for themselves whether to get in touch.

Calm, warm and readable

Cream and warm brown, generous spacing and serif headlines give the site the feel of a printed brochure rather than a bank form. Everything is in German, the language of the people it is written for.

One brand everywhere

The website, the business cards and the Instagram profile share the same marks, colours and tone, so a business card, a profile and a website visit all feel like the same company.

Technology

The website is built with Next.js and hosted on Vercel. It includes structured data that describes the business and its contact person, so search engines can understand who stands behind the offer.
