Mission Pacific

When we first visited the site for Mission Pacific, it was little more than a nondescript parking lot by the beach. Yet, the potential was undeniable: steps from the sand, a relaxed coastal energy, and a hardscrabble beach town on the cusp of transformation—drawing a younger, more innovative, and creatively minded population. The challenge was to craft a brand that could elevate this overlooked stretch of coastline while authentically capturing Oceanside’s emerging creative spirit.

The branding we developed—including the concept, naming, and full identity design—tapped into the collective fantasy of Southern California living: a dreamy fusion of relaxed luxury, local cultural texture, and sensory richness. We emphasized gentle, earthy materials, a serene palette, and artisan craftsmanship, creating a brand that both celebrated Oceanside’s creative renaissance and elevated its appeal as a destination. We then extended the vision into every aspect of the experience, from the calming room interiors to the identities of the property’s signature dining venues, including the MICHELIN-starred Valle restaurant and the vibrant Rooftop Bar.
