Project Description + Visual Identity:

Stella Surf Club is a swimwear and lifestyle brand based in San Sebastián, Spain, built for the girls who belong near water.

Pulling reference from 1960s Basque surf culture, Stella Surf chases one specific feeling, being sun-kissed and sandy after a long beach day (or 100 of them).

Most swimwear branding leans one of two ways: glossy resort-luxury or loud, saturated surf-core. As a swimsuit connoisseur myself, I felt the market was missing something in between. A brand that pulls from vintage surf aesthetics but speaks with a voice that actually resonates in the digital age.
