“CDA has been an incredible partner for us in bringing this brand to life. From day one, they dug deep to really understand what we were looking for. Their vast experience and depth of team talent, coupled with their thought-provoking partnership style, is rare and powerful.”
Cindy Feinauer, GM of Purist and Custom Business Leader at Specialized Bicycle Components

CDA’s launch for Purist is a confident, modern brand that accomplishes far more than the debut of an exceptional water bottle line. Our team developed an enduring identity and comprehensive campaign that asserts quiet authority and a bold aesthetic to set Purist apart in the competitive hydration market.

Strategic Foundations

The technology that gives Purist its unmatched versatility is inspired by the power of nature. Our brand strategy approach from the outset was to ground the company’s ethos in the natural world, while expressing their identity through a contemporary, urban point of view.

Shelf Presence

To elevate the product for various consumer environments, we created a minimalist packaging system for all bottles and lids. Stripping down to the most essential copy and design elements, we establish Purist’s distinctive voice amid the retail noise, captivate attention, and bolster brand loyalty.

Cross-Channel Integration

Our creative campaign to launch the Purist brand and its first release, brought together CDA’s expertise in powerful ways. We provided integrated strengths in photography, video, messaging, and developed the identity and brand voice across print catalog, ads, trade show booth, and environmental graphics.

Buzzworthy Social

The Purist visual aesthetic alludes to the innovative technology within the bottle. We created a collection of visual assets that diverges from the typical outdoor lifestyle brand and merges with a social media strategy that’s less #campvibes, more #streetlife.

Showstopping Design

The Purist launch culminated at the Outdoor Retailer trade show, where our custom environment invited wholesalers into an experience of the brand that’s forward-looking and exudes a modern lifestyle. We executed the entire spatial design, thoughtfully considering materiality to engage the senses.
