Hughes Brothers

Branding, Marketing, Advertising, and Website

Hughes Brothers has been a trusted name in manufacturing since 1921. With a rich history and deep industry roots, the brand needed a strategic refresh to maintain its legacy while embracing the future. UNANIMOUS provided a full-scale brand transformation, delivering a cohesive identity that reinforces trust, strengthens recognition, and positions Hughes Brothers for continued success.

Verbal Identity

A strong brand starts with a clear and compelling voice. UNANIMOUS worked closely with Hughes Brothers to refine their verbal identity, ensuring every communication reflected their history and expertise. We developed internal and external messaging that aligned with their core values and industry leadership. These foundational elements help Hughes Brothers consistently communicate across all channels.

Visual Identity Enhancements

Hughes Brothers accumulated multiple logo variations over the years, leading to inconsistencies in branding. UNANIMOUS streamlined its visual identity by standardizing a primary mark and designing alternate badges for flexible use across all mediums. We refined their logo files for scalability and reproduction, ensuring seamless application across digital and print platforms. Additionally, we developed a tagline lockup that reinforces the brand’s message and aligns with its updated verbal identity. These refinements strengthen brand recognition while honoring the company’s legacy.

Product Catalog

Hughes Brothers' product catalog, spanning over 400 pages, is a critical resource for customers. UNANIMOUS updated and refined the entire catalog, fixing corrupted image links, refreshing product photos, and ensuring accurate product specifications. The master file was optimized for both digital access and high-quality print production, making it easier for customers to find the information they need without errors or inconsistencies. We also refreshed the cover and key non-product spreads to align with the updated branding.
