Identity — version 3, 2026
A square, a cut, one line.
The GRAVEN mark is a G built from a square frame with one diagonal cut, drawn as a single continuous stroke — so it can be cast, engraved, or drawn on screen in one movement.
Design: GRAVEN studio with Ladegaard Type

We are architects of slow materials. A wall that takes a month to cast asks for a decision that will hold for a century.

Two shelves of board-marked concrete step down the slope. The upper one holds the kitchen and the long room; the lower one, the bedrooms and a studio that opens to a sunken court.
