Brand Messaging and Identity Design

The brand identity drew inspiration from two key archetypes:

The Creator Archetype, representing innovation, creativity, and craftsmanship—perfect for a business that helps customers bring their visions to life.
The Everyman Archetype, emphasizing reliability, honesty, and approachability—key traits for a home services company that builds trust and relationships with homeowners.

To ensure memorability, the client chose a logo direction featuring caricatures that encapsulate the “Deck Dudes” personality. This playful yet professional design choice set them apart in the market, embodying both the innovative and down-to-earth aspects of their brand. The messaging further emphasized their dedication to craftsmanship, customer satisfaction, and the joy of creating beautiful spaces.
