Tech Brand Identity

ETEK

A brand system for a fire alarm contractor in South Florida, built around the logo they already had: trust in the field and clarity on paper.

01 · The Challenge

Trustworthy, modern, industry-ready.

ETEK designs, installs, inspects and maintains fire alarm systems. The challenge was to keep the logo they already had and make the whole identity feel more trustworthy, modern and industry-ready, while staying simple enough to live on trucks, uniforms, drawings and invoices.

Hover over each card to see it applied.

01

Logo Refinement

The same logo, with a bolder ETEK so the name leads.

02

Fleet + Uniforms

One system across trucks, shirts, polos, caps and field gear.

03

Documentation

An invoice template with a pay-online code, in English and Spanish.

04

Digital Presence

A bilingual website and social templates built on the same system.

02 · The Concept

Same logo. A stronger name.

ETEK already had a logo their clients knew, and it stays. We gave the ETEK name more weight so it leads, then built the rest of the system around it.

03 · The graphic language

Borrowed from the trade.

Taken from the work ETEK does every day: the site notebook grid and the drawing line with its trade symbols. Scroll to watch a plan come together.

  1. The lineWalls drawn at the weight of a permit drawing, on the same grid technicians sketch on in the field.
  2. The symbolsTrade-standard device symbols, used as they are, so the brand speaks the language of the job.
  3. The circuitEvery device wired back to the panel. The red and blue runs became accent lines across the system.
  4. The testEvery device checked before hand-over. The finished plan is the proof the system works, and the brand is built to look that precise.

08 · The Outcome

A stronger, more professional presence.

The new brand system gave ETEK a stronger, more professional presence that reflects their expertise and reliability.

"This project showed me how design can simplify complexity; when visuals are clear and intentional, they build trust long before a service is delivered."
