NRC Landscape Construction — Identity refresh

The blocks
close into a ring.

The original mark was a cluster of loose rectangles — stone, sand, and shadow, set down like material samples on a jobsite table. It described the work by its parts.

The new mark keeps the same three materials and lets them close into a single, continuous ring — a finished space instead of a pile of what it's made from.

Previous NRC Landscape Construction logo at full size: a cluster of tan, cream, and grey rectangles above the wordmark and a script tagline, Premier Outdoor Living.

Full size

The same previous logo shown much smaller, the size it would run at next to other sponsor logos, where the block cluster and script tagline are hard to read.

Before

Five stacked rectangles in warm khaki, cream, and grey, paired with a condensed wordmark and a hand-lettered script tagline. Shrunk down to sponsor-logo size, the blocks and the script both lose their edges.

After

One ring, three materials. Cream and stone carry over from the old mark; a water blue replaces the khaki as the accent.

Same rectangles the old mark used, now curved and fitted edge to edge — nothing added, nothing left over.

Variations

Four versions of the same mark, each built for a surface the other three can't cover.

Color

Primary version. White or light paper, digital by default.

Black

One color. Black-and-white print, stamps, engraving, fax.

White

Knockout. Dark backgrounds, job-site photography, apparel.

Reverse

Full color on dark. Site footers, signage at dusk, video.

Color system

Three material families, each carried through a short run of tints and shades — the way a paver or a stone sample comes in more than one finish.

Retired: the old mark's khaki, #E1DABB — closest in value to Cream, so nothing in the system reads as a hard swap.
