Doshi Levien

A design studio based in London, Doshi Levien is the brain­child of Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien, who have been collab­o­rat­ing together for over 10 years. With influ­ences of visual culture and indus­trial preci­sion, their work in furni­ture design is a blend of modern and Indian heritage. With rich textiles and archi­tec­tural struc­ture as inspi­ra­tion, their furni­ture plays with mate­r­ial and pattern. Together they have collab­o­rated with Moroso, Kvadrat, B&B Italia, Cappellini, Camper, Swarovski and Galerie Kreo. They create unique and modern pieces that work in many design aesthetics.

Doshi Levien is a brand synony­mous with cultural hybridism. Founded by Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien, the part­ner­ship marries together Doshi’s love for mate­ri­als with Levien’s deep under­stand­ing of tech­nique and indus­trial design. Having been raised in India, she has an astute eye for visual culture with the goal of making prod­ucts that can contribute to a society. Levien has a back­ground of fine cabinet making, and received a Masters in furni­ture design from Royal College of Art in London, where they met and formed a part­ner­ship dedi­cated to uniting culture, tech­nol­ogy, indus­trial design, and fine craftsmanship.
