Go Greene Automotive
One of our favorite things about Austin, is it's amount of well-designed independently owned businesses. There seem to be way less chain businesses, and way more mom-and--pop style businesses. And the best part: a lot of them are well branded. One of the best examples of this, is Go Greene Automotive on 1st street. You know that branding has been effective when you are driving down the road and slow down just to see the building and it's branding. I would honestly go there to get my oil changed just because of the way it looks.I love how in Austin, so many companies are aware of the importance of a good brand, and that there are so many talented designers to help them out. Unfortunately, I don't know who did the branding for Go Greene Auto (my research was futile, though I think I might have an unconfirmed idea), so if you know, please let us know so we can give credit where credit is due. I appreciate that the website is well-designed, the signage goes along with that, and even the building itself is branded. After a quick look at thier Facebook, I saw that they even keep their branding for weekly specials and events (you would think that is a given, but unfortunately it is not usually the case). Overall it is a fun break from the usual big, bold, and ugly branding of the chain auto stores.
