Nórd — Brand identity & campaign for a fictional alpine optics brand

Nórd isn't a real product. It's a self-initiated portfolio piece — a fictional high-performance ski goggle brand I built end to end: naming, logo, brand system and full campaign. The goal was to take technical winter gear and give it the restraint and desirability of a luxury fashion label.

Process As always, analysis before execution. I studied the codes of technical eyewear and alpine editorial — cold light, mirrored lenses, balaclava styling — and anchored everything to one idea: clarity in the whiteout. The name Nórd (north) drove the system, and the accent over the Ó became a "north tick" — a diacritic that doubles as a compass mark, the single spark of colour in an otherwise monochrome identity.

I built a mini brand manual (logo, colour, typography and an "N-System" of model and temperature codes like N-09 / −09°), then art-directed a full editorial campaign across registers — heroic low-angle portraits, cold atmospheric product shots and clean packshots — tied together by one visual system.

Direction & craft Imagery was produced through my Augmented Art Direction approach: AI used as a precision instrument under tight creative direction, then refined by hand so the set reads as one campaign, not a folder of generations.

Deliverables: naming & verbal identity · logo & brand manual · art direction · full campaign · retouching · copywriting.

Design & direction: Vidrio.
