HERN Recycling Foundry has been in business since 1971. With facilities located on 32 Acres of land in Coeur d’Alene, HERN is well-known as experts in iron foundry, metal recycling, cannon design & production, and all things metal… HERN hired Tran Creative to help tell their story through Visual Branding, from logo design to responsive e-commerce web development and marketing.
After much research and over 100 logo concepts, the final logo captures the legacy of 2 generations in 2 simple shapes to form letter H within a family crest. The new logo mark also conveys heavy duty tools, equipments, materials without being too specific. We want the brand to have flexibility and not get boxed in so it can grow, evolve, and encompass other lines of service in the future.
Orange/Yellow is for heat to mold metal, innovation, ideas, and passion. Gray is for metal, stability and experience.
The new logo is applied on all marketing materials including a comprehensive, responsive e-commerce web site.

Shedit hired Tran Creative to provide branding services. Research showed there were many generic looking shed logos. In creating a brand, we wanted the shed to be more conceptual and not so obvious and generic.
After many logo explorations, the chosen logo has 3 shapes lining up perfectly to form an “S” in a shed-like shape. It has depth through arrangement of negative space. Typography is customized to match the mark with slanted edges. Colors blue and gray convey stability, strength, durability and trust.

In 2010, Tran Creative was hired to work with Team McEuen, Steering Committee and City of Coeur d’Alene for over a year on McEuen Park Renovation. Park upgrades feature a natural amphitheater, a new covered pavilion for group picnics and events, a donor wall, a grand plaza and waterfront promenade, scenic paved trails, new public art, a re-designed Veteran’s Memorial, an amazing interactive playground for kids of all ages, a new dog park, more user-friendly and efficient public parking, a new Front Avenue promenade with community gathering areas and an interactive splash pad with more than a dozen colorful water features.
The Ideas behind the Logo:
People + Letter “M” for McEuen. The CIRCLE in the middle represents the LAND where this project will be built upon. The color BROWN represents the color of the SOIL. The MULTI-COLOR palette represents the different parts of the COMMUNITY coming together to assist with this project. Each letter is individually customized to give McEuen its own distinctive personality.
On May 2, 2014, the community joined in for a soft Grand Opening. We know we are privileged to be a part of a special legacy project when we see our own children laughing, smiling, running around and playing at the park.

They asked Tran Creative to create a new visual identity. After research and many logo explorations, the chosen final logo captures the “H” and “S” working together in harmony and cohesion.

HeartSong means doing what you love and enjoy most while humming along to life’s favorite song, from the heart.
Color brick red represents love and passion from the Heart. Sage green is for new start, life and better health.

It also captures the Athlete, Movement and Performance aspect of triathlon.
Blue is for the ocean of Pacific Coast. Orange is for energy and fun under the sun. Green accentuates the beautiful landscape of Southern California.
