Ski resort marketing, California style

California’s bottomless powder and thriving ski culture are often overshadowed by other North American ski destinations. That was a challenge for Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows, a skiing mecca since the 1960s. They called on us to capture their unique ski culture and establish them as a must-ski destination. Our campaign and strategy brought them into the hearts of dedicated skiers everywhere.

Brand creative

Our creative brings exciting, vibrant colours and textures that bump up the California vibe and create a fresh, less corporate feel. We also give a subtle nod to the Golden State's landscape in our headline and border treatments.

The work Origin did to define our brand positioning and communicate the intangible nature of what makes Squaw Alpine so special set the stage for a really successful season in 2018/19. Their blend of strategy and creativity is an invaluable asset to our brand and our marketing team.
