Lindal Cedar Homes, Founded in 1945, Gets a Logo Update
The logo for Lindal Cedar Homes, the world's largest manufacturer of post-and-beam kit homes, has undergone numerous iterations over the past 60-plus years. The latest logo reflects a sleek and modern aesthetic.
SEATTLE, June 19, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In 1945 Sir Walter Lindal founded Lindal Cedar Homes - the world's largest designer & manufacturer of custom post-and-beam homes - in Canada. Only it wasn't called Lindal Cedar Homes at the time. Beginning with the name Colonial Homes, Sir Walter tried out several names before deciding to use his own surname as the company name.
The Lindal Cedar Homes logo has gone through numerous iterations in the past 60-plus years.
One of the early logos, from the mid-1960s, is in a simple font style very much of its time. The same is true of the logo used in the 1970s. A logo similar to the one used today was first designed in the 1980s. Lindal worked with a design firm and adopted a serif font for the word Lindal, while retaining the roof-shaped triangular graphic component.
"The Lindal logo reflects the strength and history of our brand; rooted in the past yet always ready to adapt to the present time," said Christina Lindal, executive vice president of the company and the great-granddaughter of founder Sir Walter Lindal.
Lindal's new logo, introduced in June 2019, has the same logo graphic element. The typeface has changed to a modern, sleek, sans serif font. The line between the word Lindal and the words "Cedar Homes" has been removed, and "Cedar Homes" now stretches the length of the entire logo. This logo is more balanced, updated, clean and easy to use. It will be incorporated throughout the company and used by Lindal's international network of independent dealerships.
