About l’aviva

Design Rooted in Story and Connection

We create collections that tell stories, crafted through the materials, techniques, and creativity of artisans worldwide. Each piece is a collaboration bridging cultural perspectives and honoring its origins, resulting in designs that are honest, layered, and richly connected.

Rooted in intimacy, our work centers around close partnerships with artisans, thoughtful client collaboration, and meticulous attention to detail. Creating something meaningful requires understanding and respect, and each project becomes an opportunity to weave different influences into pieces that are authentic and collaborative. These connections infuse each piece with added meaning, bringing continuity and character to lived spaces, rooted in the hands that crafted them.

Tradition serves as our design brief, guiding the creative process and shaping each collection. Honoring the lineage of knowledge and skill artisans bring, we blend time-honored techniques with a contemporary vision. This layered approach creates work that is both timeless and relevant, giving tradition a renewed voice and ensuring every piece carries a story from the past and a place in the present.

Purpose and integrity guide every aspect of the design process. Pieces are crafted to be not only visually compelling but also functional and enduring, reflecting a commitment to quality and authenticity. Social responsibility is woven into this commitment: through long-term, mutually enriching partnerships, we prioritize respect for artisans’ craft and heritage, investing in their skills and communities so each piece reflects the significance of these shared values.

Through our work, we strive to celebrate the artistry of global craftsmanship, create lasting connections, and bring stories of resilience, culture, and craft into every piece. Each collection offers an opportunity to connect, inspire, and foster a deeper appreciation for the world around us.
