GROOVIDO is a furniture design studio that uses a powerful visual aesthetic to translate creative challenges into distinctive design pieces. The studio’s explorative nature confronts tradition with new cultural influences, materials, colors, and production techniques.

GROOVIDO was co-founded in 2020 by Gianmaria Della Ratta and Giorgio Gasco, both alumni of the Master’s in Contextual Design at the Design Academy Eindhoven where they first met. 

“Shaping icons by breaking the mold!”
