Brand Strategy & Brand Identity
Nordgreen is a global watch company known for minimalist Scandinavian design and craftsmanship. For the conceptual launch of their premium timepiece, The Guardian, the challenge was to develop a brand strategy and identity that could communicate sustainability, luxury, and timeless elegance in an increasingly competitive global market. The goal was to position the watch as a conscious luxury product that resonates with modern audiences while staying true to Nordgreen’s design DNA.
As a part of the team, my role focused on brand strategy, creative concept, and identity development. The process began with research into industry trends, target audience aspirations, and the cultural relevance of sustainability in luxury branding. From there, I built parts of strategy that defined positioning, values, and narrative direction. The creative concept translated these insights into a cohesive identity, combining thoughtful storytelling with a Scandinavian aesthetic. This evolved into a visual and verbal system designed to strengthen brand recognition and connection.
The outcome was a comprehensive Brand Book and guidelines that ensured consistency across all touchpoints. It included the brand manifesto, tone of voice, and taglines tailored to the target audience, alongside detailed specifications for typography, color, photography, and digital media. Together, these elements provided Nordgreen with a clear framework for communicating The Guardian as a sustainable, premium timepiece, supporting the brand’s ambition to stand out in the global luxury watch market.
