The Nalgene Water Fund supports clean water access in underserved U.S. communities, including Appalachia. This custom bottle was designed to carry that mission without abandoning the brand's outdoor heritage.

I developed a design that balances Nalgene's bold, utilitarian aesthetic with intentional storytelling — using color, composition, and graphic elements to reflect both the brand's adventurous identity and the weight of the cause behind it. The bottle needed to feel like something people would reach for every day and still feel connected to. Proceeds from each sale go directly to clean water projects, so the design had to earn that weight.
