PROJECT DESCRIPTION
For nearly 30 years, San Francisco-based nonprofit CUESA (Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture) has operated world-class farmers markets, educated kids and teens about healthy food systems, and expanded public access to fresh food.
The organization’s priorities have shifted in response to the pandemic, and to help support racial equity. To better reflect its commitment to educate, elevate marginalized communities, and support a new generation of food leaders, CUESA is now known as Foodwise.
Office partnered with Foodwise to create a new brand identity to introduce the new name and reinforce the organization’s mission to grow thriving communities. The visual system expresses the vibrancy and joy of fresh food and the communities Foodwise serves, while providing cohesiveness across the organization’s many markets and programs.

Juror Comments
“I'll start with the name ‘Foodwise’. Two words, ‘food’ and ‘wise’ combine to be the perfect compound word that relates to smart and sustainable food choices. The design approach hinges on a colorful palette that reflects the bounty of a farmers market. The lively graphic illustrations of fruits and vegetables provide a perfect counterpoint to the seriousness of how we should care for our bodies and support the people who grow our food.”
