Objective
Kirchner Racing needed a complete visual identity that went beyond just the stock car. The goal was to design a system that covered the race car, apparel, promotional items, trailers, and both print and digital marketing materials — ensuring consistency across all fan and sponsor touchpoints.
Process
- Brand Development: Designed a bold racing number/logo (X3) paired with a dynamic color palette of orange, blue, and black, giving the brand an energetic and competitive feel.
- Vehicle Design: Applied the branding to the stock car with sponsor placements, bold typography, and racing stripes that enhanced speed and movement.
- Apparel & Merchandise: Extended the identity to hoodies, t-shirts, and hats, ensuring designs translated well across multiple garment colors and print processes.
- Trailer Design: Applied the branding to large-scale vehicle graphics for consistent presence at races and events.
- Marketing Materials: Designed print flyers for merchandise sales and created social media graphics for digital promotion.
