Waiotahi Contractors approached us in need of a major identity overhaul. Before we could deliver an authentic brand promise, we needed to make sure we truly understood the whole team.
Culture from within
We held interactive workshops to understand what made the staff tick, and developed a set of behavioural values from these discussions.
Quality insight
One of the key insights from our research was that Waiotahi have built a reputation on quality, and often have to go and correct jobs that their competitors have completed hastily.
Built Proud
We developed the Waiotahi brand as ‘Built Proud’. This powerful statement forces the team to raise their game in everything they do, and it reassures the customer that this is a company built on quality.
Diamonds last forever
This identity plays on contrasts and textures, using a unique diamond device to reflect the concept of ‘Built Proud’ and the fact that every job is built to last forever. Strong typography adds weight to powerful words and the strength of the diamond.
A united team
The various base elements that make up the Waiotahi divisions are represented by dynamic patterns, creating a flexible identity system that connects all parts of the business.
