redefining a classic
A global brand of purified water introduced to the US in 2002, Pure Life is available in a variety of sizes, including kid-friendly 8 oz bottle collections, featuring fun graphics that make it easier for parents to encourage their kids to drink water.
​
THE SCENARIO:
Pure Life dramatically changed its identity in 2021, moving from a blue brand to a yellow brand. In doing so they quickly lost sales because consumers didn’t recognize the identity. To reconnect with their core consumers, the brand decided to revert to their key equities, including the blue, while also taking the opportunity to modernize.
OUR SOLUTION:
CSB pulled reference from the brand’s past as inspiration. We restored most of the elements from the pre-yellow design and modernized the logo. We also evolved the brand icon based on past consumer learnings. Our multi-color family enables each member to celebrate their uniqueness. We connected the arms in a waved shape to visually support the pure water proposition. Once the design hit the market, Pure Life regained retailers’ confidence and quickly regained sales.
OUR BRAND ARCHITECTURE NEEDED TO INCORPORATE PRODUCT INNOVATIONS WHILE REMAINING TRUE TO THE MASTERBRAND. CSB CREATED EXPRESSIVE BACKGROUND GRAPHICS AND A CALL-OUT SYSTEM THAT HIGHLIGHT NEW FEATURES WHILE AVOIDING DISRUPTION.
