LIVENZA by Dhruvi
BSc in Interior Design
LIVENZA, designed by Dhruvi Jain, the winner of the Design for Circular Craftsmanship Award, isn’t a basic shop with mood lighting and fake plants. Dhruvi Jain’s dream spot is a love letter to everything old school, handmade, and anti-corporate overload. It’s a chill zone rather than a retail store, where the messiness of scrap, cane, and everything they could upcycle comes together and works. You walk in and are forced to slow down, ditch your phone, and look at stuff.
The place feels like you stumbled into a treehouse built by someone who’s obsessed with textures and stories. Every little corner tells a different tale—patchworks hanging everywhere, counters made from recycled trash and cane dividers. It’s got an honest, earthy, like the crafts themselves haven’t been drowned by the plastic tsunami everywhere else vibe.
LIVENZA isn’t about printing “sustainable” on a label and calling it a day. Every material, every creaky floorboard, is there with a purpose. You’re not just browsing for things to buy; you’re forced to think and even feel something. Who made this? What’s their story? Is it weird that a shop makes you want to hug a table? Maybe.
Shopping here is less mall crawl, more soulful wandering. It turns the whole spree into something mindful, where craft, heritage, and eco-conscience aren’t just buzzwords—they’re literally woven, nailed, and patched into the place. Here, shopping can be more than just retail therapy.
