Hi John
Checkout his website, the sign on the front of the garage has a good colour scheme, Grey & red on white………its simple & striking, if you try to re-invent the wheel you could end up miles away from where it needs to be, and stress to the customer the importance of branding & using his existing theme for continuity. 😉

Dave

i made his signage a few years back, the van is as the signage but he wants it changed and brought up to date

[John McNickle]

I dont feel as bad now, knowing that by the replys that this is a hard one design

[Steve McAdie]

I would keep all the text level with the protection strip. As it is the text seems to be at different angles.

I get ya Steve. I work of the bumper strip to but the lines are weired on these wee vans, i just have brain freeze with the design

I definitely think you should stick with red for coloring, as his building has lots of red on it.
I do not think you need the location on it if you put the website.
Keep it simple and punchy.
Here is a slap-dash unkerned quickie mockup as an example.
Those body lines are tricky!
Love….Jill

I have one of these Berlingo’s and they are a pain because of the lines. The panel is level but the rest of the van flows with the rubbing strip.

I’m liking Jill’s lay-out. Simple and effective.

[John McNickle]

thanks Jill, thats the way i like to do things, clean n simple but he is making a big thing about the ‘ Opposite tescos ‘ line, i dont like it either

You should warn him that Tesco’s might charge him for using their name!
I think I’d stroke him by saying "Well, everybody knows where you are, why bother?"
Love…..Jill

good point Jill, but you know car sales men if it aint cheesy and naff then they dont like it :lol1:
