Vintage Garage Logo & Card
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
I’m re-branding my car mechanic shop and need a cohesive visual identity built around a single idea: a vintage-inspired logo that also translates seamlessly onto a two-sided business card.
Style & imagery
The overall look should feel classic rather than modern or minimalist—think heritage service-station signage. I picture a strong typographic treatment of the shop name, backed up by small automotive icons such as a wrench, gear or a subtle car outline. Feel free to experiment with combinations, so long as the finish still reads unmistakably vintage.
Colour direction
I’m leaning toward a white-and-orange palette. White should keep the design clean, while orange brings energy and immediately signals “automotive”. If you have a clever way to introduce an accent tone without losing the white-and-orange focus, I’m open to seeing it.
What I need from you
• 3 initial logo concepts reflecting the vintage, typography-plus-icon brief
• Iterative refinements to arrive at a final logo (reasonable rounds)
• Final logo supplied as fully editable vector files (AI, EPS) plus high-resolution PNG and transparent SVG
• A print-ready business-card layout (front and back, 3.5" × 2", CMYK, 300 dpi) that carries the final logo, shop contact details (I’ll provide copy) and consistent colour/typography choices
• Web-optimised versions of both the logo and card for online use
Acceptance criteria
A finished package that prints crisply at any size, aligns with the vintage brief, holds up in single-colour or reversed applications, and reproduces accurately in both CMYK and RGB.
If you have a portfolio piece that shows you’ve tackled retro or automotive branding before, send me a link and let’s get rolling.
