Safelite Brand Refresh

Two Safelite employees in black and red uniforms smiling and working behind a white reception desk in a modern office with red and beige walls.

Boasting more than 800 locations, a fleet of 8,000 trucks, and a workforce of 15,000, Safelite stands as the premier automotive glass repair company in America.

I led the in-house brand studio in partnership with agency Quake to modernize the brand and align it with the scale, innovation, and service quality customers expect.

This comprehensive rebranding initiative influenced every facet of the business, including team uniforms, shop architecture and environmental design, fleet vehicles, advertising, and digital experiences.

The result is a brand built to scale—one that supports Safelite’s continued growth while reinforcing its leadership in the category.
