French transport company Beau is known for their trucks decorated with airbrush art. The word Beau usually is modeled after the Balloon typeface, with a yellow-to-orange gradient and often a white outline around the letters. The names of the owners — Chantal, Philippe and Romuald Beau — are shown in the Brush Script typeface. The initials in the eagle silhouette are from Zapf Chancery.
