E.R. Gray & Associates logo and website redesign

E.R. Gray & Associates, a land surveying company located in Columbus, Indiana desired a fresh new look for their business. Their old design was showing signs of age and was ready for an update.

THE LOGO:


I based the new logo design off of their old well-recognized logo, making the new design more crisp and modern looking. I removed the inside of the compass, and replaced it with the company's initials. This will allow the compass element to stand on it's own in time.

I also changed the wordmark font to a modern, much easier to read font.

The simplicity of the logo design makes it functional for embroidery on shirts, coats, and hats.


THE WEBSITE:

The old website.



The new website.



The new design presents the complicated topic of land surveying, into an easy-to-read and easy-to-understand manner. The approach to the redesign was simple. What if I were needing a land surveyor? What information would I need to know? I know absolutely nothing about land surveying, so I need the information in small digestable bites.

The new "Did You Know?" boxes quickly answer frequently asked questions that an E.R. Gray client may have. The "Request a Quote" makes it easy for potential clients to initiate business with E.R. Gray.

The feedback on the new design has been terrific, and the "Request a Quote" feature is already driving business to the company.

Thank you E.R. Gray for entrusting me with the new look of your company!
