Caserne, in collaboration with Rouge Cardinal, rebranded Club Piscine to modernize an iconic Québec retailer while preserving its heritage. The work began with a review of the brand’s history, recognizable visual elements, and past campaigns to ensure continuity. The project introduced a refreshed color palette, a modernized logo, and the new tagline “Le meilleur de l’été,” expressing the brand’s promise in outdoor living. Caserne helped build a more flexible and timeless visual system that could extend across platforms, products, and 41 franchise locations while remaining instantly recognizable. More than a cosmetic update, the project repositioned Club Piscine for a new generation without losing the warmth, familiarity, and product quality that defined the brand.
Montréal-based studio Caserne has rebranded Club Piscine to celebrate the retailer’s 35th anniversary, modernising its identity while preserving its playful heritage. The refreshed design retains the iconic smiley and vibrant color palette, introducing a new wordmark set in Dinamo’s Diatype Rounded typeface. The result balances fun and sophistication, connecting with a new generation of customers while honoring the brand’s legacy.
