Tomoko Kodera's Editorial... Community Gets Rebranding from URAKATA

URAKATA Inc. has supported the rebranding of editor Tomoko Kodera's online community "Editorial..." with a new visual identity and website. The work, done under the concept of "unlearn," includes a logo, color, tone, and web design. Kodera, known for producing best-selling photo books, will publish her first book in 2026. URAKATA has been a behind-the-scenes partner since her company Shiori Inc. was founded.

The rebranding centers on the concept of "unlearn"-letting go of preconceptions and habits. URAKATA handled everything from logo and color to website planning and production, building a consistent visual system for a community that primarily connects through social media. Kodera, whose edited works include the best-selling photo books of Minami Tanaka and Komudotto, has been running "Editorial..." as a space for word-based connection. The partnership with URAKATA has been ongoing since Shiori Inc. was established, with URAKATA providing management and creative support behind the scenes. Kodera's first book, "Aru Henshūsha no Shukan" (An Editor's Subjectivity), is scheduled for 2026.
