A second-generation home builder in Salem, Oregon needed a brand and website that reflected the future of the company while honoring its reputation. Through Construction Branding, Brand Strategy, and Construction Web Design, we created a modern identity built to support the next chapter of growth.
Salem, Oregon
Brand Identity, Website Design & Development
May 2025
For decades, T. Wheeler Homes had built a reputation for quality craftsmanship throughout the Salem, Oregon area. As the business prepared for a leadership transition from one generation to the next, the company recognized an opportunity to modernize how it presented itself without losing the trust it had earned within the community.
The existing brand and website no longer reflected the caliber of the homes being built or the direction the company was heading. Like many established builders, the business had evolved over the years, but its visual identity hadn't kept pace.
The challenge wasn't to reinvent the company. It was to create a cohesive brand and website that honored its history while positioning T. Wheeler Homes for future growth and a new generation of leadership.
This project combined Construction Company Branding with strategic Construction Web Design to better communicate the quality, professionalism, and values that have defined the company for years.
Successful transitions require continuity as much as change.
Working alongside Tanner Labelle of FTF Creative, we developed a unified brand identity and website that balanced the company's long-standing reputation with a contemporary visual direction. Every decision was guided by one question: how do we help the next generation build on the trust the previous generation established?
The brand refinement focused on creating a professional identity that feels timeless rather than trendy, something capable of growing alongside the company for years to come. The website extended that same philosophy by organizing the company's work, communicating its expertise, and creating a digital experience that reflects the quality of its homes.
As a studio specializing in Construction Branding and Construction Web Design, we believe a company's website and identity should work together. The strongest builder brands create consistency across every client interaction, from the first online visit to the day construction is complete.
T. Wheeler Homes now has a cohesive brand and website that support the company's next chapter while remaining true to its roots.
The updated identity provides a professional foundation across marketing materials, signage, and digital platforms, while the website gives prospective homeowners a clearer understanding of the company's craftsmanship, values, and approach to residential construction.
Most importantly, the new brand positions T. Wheeler Homes for long-term growth. It reflects the quality of the homes they build today while providing the flexibility to evolve as the company continues serving homeowners throughout the Willamette Valley.
What Changed
This project demonstrates how branding for construction companies is often about more than creating a new look. During periods of growth and leadership transition, a strategic brand helps communicate continuity, build confidence, and prepare a business for its next generation.

A specialty design-build contractor with an outdated three-page website that wasn't reflecting the quality of their work or helping them compete online. We transformed their digital presence into a strategic marketing tool that showcases their craftsmanship, explains the design-build process, and positions them as a premier contractor for wineries and churches across Oregon.
