Marketing Collateral

In a landscape dominated by towering giants, Alpha Snowboards emerged as an unexpected contender. Originating from the raw beauty and vigor of the mountains, what began as a mere concept — one many doubted would even reach prototype — became a beacon of hope for those who defy conventions.

Diving deep into the adrenaline-fueled world of snowboarding, we crafted an all-encompassing brand identity that celebrated Alpha's unique narrative. Rather than following the industry's saturated trends, we focused on fresh, exciting graphics, innovative board shapes, and limited product runs, ensuring each board told its own story. The apparel was designed to resonate with the brand's ethos, a mix of grit and passion. The collateral and website, echoing the same sentiments, became platforms where Alpha Snowboards' story could be shared and celebrated. Every element, from the branding to the boards design, was a testament to the raw excitement that initially lured the Alpha team into this exhilarating sport.

The outer structure of the mark is pulled from the strokes of a capital “A”.

02- Gravitational Crossbar

The crossbar of the “A” pulls down as an homage to the effect that gravity has on the sport, while giving support to the letter-form, and contributing to the mountain range visual.

The negative space that the crossbar creates resembles a snow-cap at the top of a mountain.

Throughout the mark we see several arrow motifs that symbolize the snowboarder’s quest to fight gravity as they launch themselves off jumps and halfpipes.

The 2018 lineup

The original plan to launch the inaugural board line for Alpha was to create three boards that would be produced in small batches. The original line only consisted of the Digital Playground series of boards..  However, after all the mass shootings in the USA, the team agreed that it was time to take a stance.  This launched the “Make art, Not War” Series.

Digital Playground Series

The Digital Playground Series takes its design direction from some of our favorite retro game graphics. We wanted this lineup to feel as though you’ve come out of a digital universe like a character from Tron, ready to shred fresh pow.

Art Not War Series

This lineup for Alpha Snowboards was created as a statement against the mass shootings that happen daily in the United States. The lineup is filled with contrasts. Beautiful floral illustrations with blood red overlays, guns and florals colored like the American flag, and a green army men board.
