  • Include nomenclature recognizable to the auto enthusiast community

Design exploration checklist for creating the logo graphic

  • Convey longevity, infinity, or perpetuity
  • Depict a vehicle or an automotive part
  • Resonate with automotive enthusiasts

What inspired the Eternal Garage Green

#779E00
  • Traffic light green, a little rush of excitement automotive enthusiasts get - green means go!
  • The green in "evergreen" meaning longevity and preservation
  • This particular green was mixed to be an homage to the classic 60s green found on vintage cars while still being mindful for accessibility contrast
