Creating a Powerful Sense of Place
Mires partners with premier destination spa Rancho La Puerta
San Diego, CA, June 17, 2005World-renowned destination spa Rancho La Puerta recently selected Mires, San Diego’s
largest brand design firm, to establish a new look-and-feel for the famous resort.
Starting with a flagship brochure, the work is expected to be a dramatic departure for Rancho La Puerta. The brochure will
create a strong sense of place and experience for the 65-year-old spa, highlighting its lush setting (3,000 acres in Tecate,
Mexico), rich history, passion for the arts and commitment to holistic wellness.
“At Mires, we help our clients make a strong lifestyle connection with consumers. Our goal for the brochure is to capture the
transformative nature of a week-long stay at the ranch,” said John Ball, principal and creative director at Mires.
Rancho La Puerta selected Mires because of its reputation for delivering world-class creative solutions. “Rancho La Puerta is a
premier fitness destination so it is important that our brand appeals to discerning travelers and is consistent across every
touch-point with our target market. Mires was an obvious choice for us. They excel at creating consumer desire and are known
for impeccable creative. We need a partner that can deliver a solution as unique as Rancho La Puerta itself,” explained Peter
Jensen, director of marketing for Rancho La Puerta,
Mires has collaborated with a number of destination-related clients, most notably Lowe Enterprises, a major resort developer,
and the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
