Challenge

The challenge is alignment with a name that carries strong associations with European ski culture in a way that highlights its pre-existing blueprint for luxury, health, social chemistry, and synergy implicit in these travel adventures, while expanding these ideas in a way that is modern and alluring.

Approach

The proposal seeks to shape a stronger, more refined sensibility by balancing luxury with sex appeal and glamour through implication rather than explicit statements. Visual and social cues allow the imagery and copy to speak from an insider perspective, evoking a more exclusive and privileged lifestyle.

Solution

  • Refined luxury and glamour through subtle cues

  • Editorial-based art direction

  • An elevated, insider brand voice

  • A cohesive visual and verbal system

The result reads as polished, understated, and exclusive

Outcome

The brand voice would be more cohesive by aligning with the cultural cues of its geographic roots.

The brand experience would be more elevated across platforms.
