Feel something
Fjord is a new floating sauna and cold water plunge in the Sausalito area of San Fransisco Bay. Fjord is not a spa. It does not sell spa services. Instead it provides a communal, outdoors, self-guided opportunity to enjoy the huge mental and physical benefits of hot and cold — and to enjoy a beverage afterwards with friends. Keen to sidestep the usual spa branding tropes, we worked closely with founders Alex and Gabe to create a bold identity inspired by the area’s industrial past. At the heart of the brand is a bespoke typeface containing a degree symbol in the place of the ‘o’ as a direct reference to the hot and cold nature of the offer.
