03 / Reece Reid

The brief

A trade identity made toLeave a mark.

Reece needed more than a name on a van. The identity had to feel energetic, memorable and unmistakably connected to the craft—then hold together at full scale in the real world.

The direction

The work is precise.The identity does not need to be quiet.

Most local trade branding disappears into the same familiar visual language. Reece Reid needed the opposite: a fast, expressive system that could be recognised at a glance from across the street.

The identity

Name, craft and attitude.All in one hit.

A hand-painted wordmark, brush device and layered splashes bring the service into the mark itself. Electric purple cuts through the black and white palette, giving every application one immediate signature.

Concept to road

Designed on screen.Proved at full size.

The vehicle was treated as a complete moving composition—not a logo placed on a door. Paint movement leads the eye across the bodywork, while the service name and contact details stay direct and readable.

The system

One expressive mark.Two clear modes.

Light and dark versions keep the identity flexible without losing the paint-led character. The same recognisable language can move from a vehicle to workwear, social content and future materials.

The result

Reece Reid Painting and Decorating logo
A name people remember.A van that works as hard as the business.A local identity impossible to confuse.
