Chris Livaudais

I am a multi-disciplinary designer and creative director based in San Francisco, California.

 

Giving Gravity is about making real what once seemed impossible.

I work at the intersection of a variety of creative disciplines and have led projects for brands of all sizes across a wide spectrum of industries. 

​

I am most excited when the worlds of product, service, and experience collide to create amazing, human-centered outcomes that are as honest as they are beautiful.

The creative process is messy, generally non-linear, and riddled with unknowns. But we can all solve problems and we can all envision something better.

 

Piercing through the fuzzy front end into a space of collaborative future thinking takes a strategic approach and an experienced guide.

Helping teams and brands navigate uncertainties

Creative Leadership

​

Bringing vast depth of experience in guiding cross functional teams of designers, engineers, programmers, corporate stakeholders, and end-users through the design process, I thrive in enabling people to create their best work.

Strategic Vision

​

With the ability to switch readily between micro-detail or macro-system implementation at any point in the creative process, I can help teams understand how design fits into a larger ecosystem of brand, service, or experience.

Complexity Simplified

​

Through facilitated workshops or one-on-one sketch sessions with members of my team, I flourish where complicated challenges demand a structured approach and well considered design solutions.
