The founders came to us asking for simply for a logo. But after hearing their story about two passionate entrepreneurs changing lives one home at a time, it was clear they needed something much bigger. To stand out to local authorities, energy giants and commissioning groups and inspire trust in the communities they serve, they needed a complete brand transformation: a new name, identity and strategy that captured both their purpose and their potential.
“Working with Alex and the Black & Ginger team has been a brilliant experience.”
Liam Grey, Director at GaiaEnergy
Gaia Energy: From cold houses to warm homes
When we met the team behind what was then Gray North West, they were a fast-growing retrofit firm with a big heart, helping families across the Liverpool City Region make their homes warmer, safer and more energy efficient. Five years on, with £5 million in projected turnover and a growing team at their carbon-neutral HQ in Knowsley, they were ready for the next chapter.
They had big ambitions: to scale nationally, expand into commercial solar and become a trusted name in the UK’s journey to net zero. Our job was to give them a brand that matched their impact and ambition.
Gaia Energy – A brand filled with warmth
The Challenge
To evolve a local retrofit firm into a credible, scalable energy brand that connects emotionally with homeowners and commands respect from industry partners.
The Solution
We created the name Gaia Energy, inspired by the Greek goddess of the Earth as a symbol of renewal and balance. From there, we built a full brand world: a new logo, visual identity, website, social toolkit, apparel and vehicle livery. The look and feel are fresh, confident and full of life, a perfect reflection of a company bringing warmth, light and hope to the people they serve.
The Results
The new Gaia Energy brand launched as the company celebrated its fifth anniversary, marking the start of an exciting new growth phase. With a bold, modern identity and a clear sense of purpose, Gaia is now perfectly positioned to scale its impact, expand its solar division and play a leading role in powering a low-carbon future.
