About Roofarm Rebranding Munus Primarium: Identitas Signi

Textus Libri: Hoc inceptum est renovatio signi quae amplificationem negotii Roofarm comitatur. Societas ex agricultura urbana in tectis orta est et nunc in agriculturam ruralem magnae molis una cum operationibus urbanis se dilatat. Hoc gradu, visio corporata denuo definita est ut Agricultura Reinventa ad Mundi Cibi Copiam Sustinendam. Haec visio in identitatem a circuitu inspiratam translata est quae agriculturam ut infrastructuram exprimit. Identitas duas formas inter se conexas exhibet quae relationem inter systemata urbana et ruralia significant.

Unique Properties: This project is a rebranding initiative accompanying RooFarm's business expansion. Against the projected 2050 food crisis and global supply chain challenges, the company has grown from urban rooftop agriculture and now expands into large-scale rural farming alongside its existing urban operations. At this turning point, the corporate vision was redefined as "Reinventing Agriculture to Sustain the World's Food Supply," repositioning agriculture as infrastructure supporting society. The visual identity system translated this shift into a cohesive brand foundation for continued growth.
Dimensions & Packaging: The logo was designed with reproducibility in both physical and digital formats as a fundamental premise. It maintains its symbolic integrity even in monochrome and features a structure that allows enlargement, reduction, and three-dimensional application. It functions as a scalable brand foundation that grows alongside business expansion.

Design Challenge: The greatest challenge of this project was to integrate the traditionally separate concepts of urban and rural and technology and agriculture into a single, clear brand identity. It needed to be simple yet possess strong symbolism, withstand discussion on a societal scale, and be forward thinking while retaining the approachability expected of a food brand. To achieve this balance, we pursued a structure that encapsulates maximum meaning with minimal elements.
Research: This project redefined the vision for agriculture pursued by RooFarm by organizing the business structures, social roles, and future scalability of both urban and rural agriculture. From a perspective that views agriculture not as production but as a foundation, we investigated and analyzed its relationships with technology, logistics, and social structures, exploring ways to visually integrate these elements.
Inspiration: RooFarm's new visual identity reexamines the fragmented structure in which cities consume and rural areas supply, envisioning a new model that reconnects urban and rural agriculture. It translates the concepts of reinventing, supporting, and becoming the foundation into a logo inspired by electronic circuits and circuit boards. Structured through two distinct yet interconnected forms, the mark presents agriculture not merely as production but as infrastructure, symbolizing both independence and interdependence between urban and rural systems.
Project Duration: The project commenced in Tokyo, Japan in October 2025 and is scheduled to launch in April 2026.
Operation Flow: The logo design is adaptable for diverse touchpoints including cardboard, planters, packaging and digital media. It creates a consistent brand experience from production sites to consumers. The logo silhouette balances technological sophistication with approachability as a food product.
