brand analysis
The former identity presented weaknesses such as low memorability, foreign naming, poor digital searchability, and a visually overloaded logo. Still, it offered strong foundations — artisanal quality, inclusivity, and sustainability.

new brand and identity
nova marca e identidade visual
concept
macaya is a unique, invented word born from the intuitive fusion of sounds and meanings. its soft and fluid pronunciation makes it approachable and memorable, while its roots evoke brazilian identity, nature, and ancestry. the name gathers different layers of meaning: “ma” refers to mother, forest, and the creative principle; “ca” connects directly to cacao, the sacred fruit that nurtures and transforms; “caya” conveys the idea of home, care, and human warmth; and “aya” evokes the ancestral goddess, recognized as the guardian of natural cycles and feminine wisdom. together, these elements express the essence of the brand: the strength of the feminine, the cycles of the living earth, and the sweetness of artisanal food.
macaya é uma palavra única e inventada, nascida da fusão intuitiva de sons e sentidos. sua pronúncia suave e fluida a torna próxima e memorável, enquanto suas raízes evocam brasilidade, natureza e ancestralidade. o nome reúne diferentes camadas de significado: “ma” remete à mãe, à mata e ao princípio criador; “ca” conecta diretamente ao cacau, fruto sagrado que nutre e transforma; “caya” traz a ideia de casa, cuidado e acolhimento; e “aya” evoca a deusa ancestral, reconhecida como guardiã dos ciclos naturais e da sabedoria feminina. juntos, esses elementos traduzem a essência da marca: a força do feminino, os ciclos da terra viva e a doçura do alimento artesanal.
brand architecture
macaya is structured into two main fronts: macaya sabor, dedicated to artisanal foods with native ingredients, and macaya saber, focused on education, consultancy, and conscious entrepreneurship. each front expands into sub-brands that organize the product lines and educational services. to ensure flexibility and consistency across these fronts, a wide range of logo variations was developed. these include circular and typographic versions, adaptations for color and monochrome use, as well as applications over images and textures. this system allows the brand to maintain a cohesive identity while adapting to different contexts, scales, and communication needs.
a macaya é estruturada em duas grandes frentes: macaya sabor, dedicada a alimentos artesanais com ingredientes nativos, e macaya saber, voltada à educação, consultoria e empreendedorismo consciente. cada frente se desdobra em submarcas que organizam as linhas de produtos e serviços educativos. para garantir flexibilidade e consistência em todas essas frentes, foi desenvolvido um amplo conjunto de variações do logo. entre elas estão versões circulares e tipográficas, adaptações para uso em cores e monocromático, além de aplicações sobre imagens e texturas. esse sistema permite que a marca mantenha uma identidade coesa, ao mesmo tempo em que se adapta a diferentes contextos, escalas e necessidades de comunicação.
color palette
the macaya color palette is structured into two universes. the pink palette (saber) conveys knowledge, education, and awareness, symbolizing the brand’s educational and cultural role. the brown palette (sabor) reflects flavor, tradition, and sensoriality, connecting directly to cocoa and brazilian ingredients.
a paleta de cores da macaya se organiza em dois universos. a paleta rosa (saber) transmite conhecimento, educação e consciência, simbolizando o papel educativo e cultural da marca. já a paleta marrom (sabor) reflete sabor, tradição e sensorialidade, conectando-se diretamente ao cacau e aos ingredientes brasileiros. juntas, equilibram racionalidade e prazer sensorial, reforçando a dupla essência da macaya.
icon system
The icon family reinforces Macaya’s dual universe of flavor and knowledge. Organic and simple in design, the icons are divided into two sets: Macaya Sabor (ingredients, utensils, artisanal processes) and Macaya Saber (learning, sharing, creative tools). The color palettes differentiate each front while maintaining overall cohesion.
A família de ícones reforça o duplo universo da Macaya — sabor e saber. Com traços simples e orgânicos, os ícones se dividem em dois conjuntos: Macaya Sabor (ingredientes, utensílios e processos artesanais) e Macaya Saber (aprendizado, partilha e ferramentas criativas). As paletas de cores diferenciam cada frente, mantendo a coesão da marca.
