Studio Gavari is a brand and product design studio working across identity, packaging and visual worlds.
Studio Gavari was founded by industrial designer Gerda Gavari from a belief that a brand should be considered as a whole, from the idea behind it to the object someone eventually holds in their hands. With a background spanning industrial design, packaging, retail and luxury, Gerda approaches branding through both a graphic and dimensional lens. Form, material, typography, packaging and image are not treated as separate disciplines, but as parts of one connected system.
Before founding Studio Gavari, Gerda's work moved across industrial design, packaging, retail and luxury, experiences that continue to shape the studio's multidisciplinary approach today.
Her background includes packaging and graphic design for L'Oréal, Hugo Boss and Dolce & Gabbana, alongside retail and spatial design work for brands including Armani, Dior and Hennessy within the LVMH Group. Moving between physical objects, packaging, retail environments and brand identity shaped a way of thinking that remains central to Studio Gavari: the strongest brands are not assembled touchpoint by touchpoint. They are built as coherent systems.
Studio Gavari works with founders and teams building considered products in beauty, wellness and lifestyle. Our work often begins with a product, an idea or a moment of change, and develops outward into the system it needs to live within: positioning, identity, packaging, dimensional form, visual direction and digital experience.
The studio remains intentionally independent. Depending on the scale and needs of a project, Gerda leads the work directly or brings together a focused team of specialist designers and collaborators. This structure keeps the thinking close, while allowing each project to expand around what it actually requires.
