Plenty
Growing the future of food.
Plenty is a California-based AgTech startup on a mission to rewrite the rules of agriculture. They design fully automated indoor farms where crops are grown vertically on high towers, in precisely controlled environments, from seed to packaging. The result: exceptional produce sold through partners and under the Plenty brand.
For two years, as a creative duo with Art Director Pierre-Ange Aznar and myself as Designer, we collaborated daily with Plenty’s design and marketing teams on a wide range of communication needs. The challenge was to make people see, understand, and crave the future of food. We helped them shape a visual territory that is both cutting-edge and friendly, educate audiences on what vertical farming is, craft the "Growing Clean" narrative, and turn innovation into mouthwatering content.

Project Description
Our goal was to turn innovation into craving, to help audiences not only understand what vertical farming is, but desire its products and trust the brand behind them. Every brief was an opportunity to translate strategic insights into creative concepts that elevated and expanded Plenty’s visual ecosystem. I leveraged existing brand assets and crafted new ones to shape Plenty’s visual narrative across creative and motion graphics. I crafted the "Growing Clean" visuals, positioning Plenty as an actor in building a cleaner, more trustworthy food system in the US, by executing campaign visuals and web and social ads. I made Plenty’s leafy greens as innovative as they are desirable, producing mouthwatering social media content. I worked to educate, entice, and inspire, turning a “WTF” tech concept into a “Wow” consumer revelation through motion graphics for the Plant Lab video series, social media content, and newsletters.
My work for Plenty spans social media strategy and content production, designing new brand assets, ads, newsletters, motion design, event materials, murals, swag, and presentations. I played a key role in ensuring strategic and positioning alignment, brand consistency across touchpoints, and a scalable brand presence that supported growth and leadership in the vertical farming space. It also gave me the opportunity to develop workflows and brand system that streamlined production while maintaining brand consistency. Navigating a startup environment and consumer brand marketing strategies has made me a strong asset for creative teams and brands looking for versatile, high-quality execution rooted in strong strategic alignment across every touchpoint.
