Aivan is a Nordic design and innovation agency.
We ideate, design and deliver compelling products, services, spaces and identities that help our clients to distinguish their brands and grow their businesses.
Our approach
The brand environment of today is characterized by constant disruption, where brands must re-orient towards a quickly shifting, multi-platform, multi-channel landscape. No single design approach can hope to keep pace.
Our process
No matter how disruptive the external environment, we always begin our design process from the same internal starting point: a fundamental brand empathy, which places your brand and customer at the core of everything that follows.
