Why does this vehicle graphic stand out?  The Marvin Johnson and Associates fleet graphics work, that much is obvious. But why does this vehicle wrap work? What makes this vehicle graphic stand out, and more importantly what mistakes does this design avoid?

What Makes this Vehicle Graphic Stand Out?

So, why does this vehicle graphic stand out? This full wrap is simple, deceptively so, purposely so. That doesn’t mean it was simple to design, just the opposite, creating a simple vehicle graphic design isn’t simple. Because making a vehicle graphic stand out when it competes every day with thousands of others isn’t easy.

The Road

The first thing that captures your attention is the road; blacktop, with a double yellow line, and white curbs curving into the distance. Looks easy, doesn’t it? However, change the perspective, angle, size, or shape only slightly, and it could look like the rendering of a third-grade art class assignment.

The Contrast

Did you notice the lettering for “Truck Insurance?” It begins in yellow, switches to white, and then back to yellow. One more thing, the yellow “T” is against a yellow background, which ordinarily would make it disappear—you’d be left with “ruck Insurance.” Instead, because it’s  outlined in black, the letters stand out, and “Truck” shadowed in black also show well.

The Message

The message is simple. It’s not overcrowded, attempting to share too much information and overloading everyone who views the vehicle. It’s simple—truck insurance, safety services, and the name of the organization.
