RILCO, Inc. | Corporate Identity Redesign & Brand Strategy

I spearheaded the visual modernization of the corporate identity for RILCO, Inc., a prominent distributor of Shell oil products. The objective was to transform the brand into an iconic, nationwide identifier that reflects the company’s scale and professional standing in the lubricants and services sector.

Strategic Brand Execution:

  • Iconic Visual Identity: Engineered a high-impact logo featuring a custom typographic treatment with a dynamic “swoosh” element and integrated oil droplet iconography to symbolize fluid movement and precision.

  • Brand Standardization: Developed a comprehensive set of branding guidelines to ensure enterprise-wide consistency, establishing a unified professional presence across all platforms.

  • Omnichannel Implementation: Successfully deployed the new identity system across a diverse range of high-visibility assets, including:

    • Corporate Architecture: Primary building signage for the organization’s headquarters.

    • Fleet Identity: High-visibility vehicle graphics and fleet branding utilized throughout the Midwest region.

    • Professional Collateral: Standardized designs for corporate stationery, technical brochures, and marketing materials.

  • Market Scalability: Designed the mark to maintain visual integrity and legibility at any scale, ensuring a cohesive brand experience from small-format business cards to large-scale industrial signage.
