FENCE GENIUS BRAND LAUNCH

Signature Development has been a WA-based company for many years. They have focused on manufacturing pre-fab wood fence panels, which are sold as commodity items at Home Depots across the nation. They have also manufactured and sold other wood commodity products, such as workbenches and picnic tables. Many of these items are not branded within the Home Depot retail environment. They are very much price-driven products and consumers don’t care about brand.

The company has now developed new offerings that are more custom, innovative, and high-quality/polished in nature. Two new offerings will fall under a new master brand called Fence Genius.

This new offering and brand gives Signature Development the opportunity to transform the fencing industry, increase sustainability efforts, and grow tremendously.

The new name “Fence Genius” was selected because it communicates what the new brand stands for, is unique within the industry landscape, and is compelling and memorable.

Work Completed: Research, Brand
Architecture, Value Propositions, Naming, Logo & Visual Language

NEW LOGO

The brand positioning informed the logo and visual language process and brought to life what had only been expressed in words.

The creative team challenged ourselves to consider icons, type treatments and subtle design devices. We worked closely with our client and landed here. A concept that incorporates “FG” and “centerline” in a single mark. It was imperative to emphasize precision and technology. This bold mark with the complimentary all caps, sans-serif font conveys a savvy, modern and reliable company. It's simplicity and geometry will work well for applications that include casting, burning, and stamping. All caps suggests high-quality, bold, and precise.
