Portfolio · What Vector designs to

What Vector can design for you

Brand 9 designed these identity systems for restaurants, medical practices, contractors, churches, schools, law firms and young companies. Vector works from the same design standards, so this is the level he designs to for your business: a mark that holds up on the sign, the truck, the shirt and the business card.

Vector review

How every design is checked

Before you see a design, Vector measures it and fixes what can be fixed. The result is listed on the design, and after you apply it Vector looks at the rendering again.

  • Margins: everything inside the safe zone, clear of the edge.
  • Alignment: every line and logo on one shared centre line or left edge.
  • Spacing: lines spaced on one rhythm, taken from the type above them.
  • Letter-spacing: capitals opened up, scripts set solid.
  • Kerning: the font’s own pair kerning, carried into the print file.
  • Line breaks: no single word left alone on a line.
  • Hierarchy: one focal point, with a clear step from headline to the next line.
  • White space: how much of the face the type covers, so it reads from the road.
  • Production: stroke and gap widths for cutting and routing, contrast, and letter height for viewing distance.

Design questions

How much does logo design cost at Brand 9 Signs?
Designing in the Logo Designer is free, with watermarked previews. The production file pack is $35 one time, and the $35 is credited in full toward a Brand 9 sign order of $99 or more within 90 days. The Sign-Ready Brand Kit is $79 one time, and $35 of it is credited the same way. There are no subscriptions.
Who designs my logo?
Vector, Brand 9's AI design agent. Vector works from the design standards behind Brand 9's own identity work. It proposes six concepts in the directions you pick and gives the reason for each. A symbol may be drawn by AI; your business name never is. It is set in real fonts and turned into exact outlines, so it is always spelled right. You choose what to apply.
How does Vector check a design?
Every rendering is measured before you see it: margins against the safe zone, one shared alignment line, spacing on one rhythm, letter-spacing on capitals and none on scripts, the font's kerning pairs, no single word left alone on a line, a clear step from headline to the next line, and how much of the face the type covers. Faults that can be fixed are fixed automatically and listed on the design. Logos also get the Logo Check: stroke and gap width for cutting and routing, a one-color version, contrast and letter height for viewing distance.
What files do I get with the $35 logo pack?
SVG and PDF vector files and 4000 px PNGs, in full color, one color, black, white and reversed, as horizontal, stacked and icon-only lockups, plus favicons, social sizes, the font names and a one-color cut-ready file for vinyl and routing.
What is in the Sign-Ready Brand Kit?
Everything in the $35 file pack, plus a brand guidelines PDF (lockups, clear space, minimum sizes, color in HEX, RGB and CMYK, type, do and don't), a business card with bleed, a letterhead, an email signature, a social kit for LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and X, and a sign spec sheet that draws your logo to scale on four Brand 9 signs with letter heights by viewing distance. Vector builds it from your finished logo. The contact lines are placeholders you replace.
Do I own my logo?
The files are yours to use on signs, print and online once paid for. AI-generated parts of a design may not be protectable by copyright on their own, and nothing in the Logo Designer is a trademark clearance. Talk to a trademark attorney before you register a mark.
Can you put my logo on a sign?
Yes. From the Logo Designer, Put this on a sign opens Vector Studio with your logo already placed on an A-frame, yard sign, panel or vehicle magnet, with the price shown as you design. Brand 9 Signs has made signs in Orange Park, Florida since 1986.
Do you design pitch decks or motion graphics?
Not yet. Vector's pitch deck, presentation and motion design are in development. Email team@brand9signs.com and we will tell you when they open.
