Forest Cover — Premium Positioning and Brand Transformation

Lead

Forest Cover is a New Zealand–based flooring installation company. The founder approached EVO BRAND for a complete brand transformation: strategy, visual identity, website, and marketing direction. We developed an integrated solution that positioned the brand firmly in the premium segment.

Context

New Zealand’s flooring market is competitive and dominated by general contractors. The premium niche of natural wooden floors is still emerging, offering space for strong expert brands.

Challenge

The client aimed to move into a higher-value segment and highlight expertise in natural wood flooring. The brand lacked a clear strategy, consistent communication, and a unified visual language.

  • A clear value proposition built around quality, longevity, and craftsmanship.

Identity:
  • A refined, premium visual system.
  • A natural wood-inspired color palette.
  • Minimalist typography to emphasize expertise.
Website:
  • A landing page with a curated catalogue of wooden floorings.
  • Clean structure with an emphasis on materials and project visuals.
  • Simple, guided user journey.
Social & Print Materials:
  • Instagram styled in the new premium identity.
  • Brochures, business cards, and flyers aligned with the brand system.
Marketing Strategy:
  • Positioning within the high-end interior market.

  • Gradual expansion through referrals and partnerships.

Results
