During the pandemic, DhavDesign was founded in 2020, a time when digital work was in high demand. I decided to take a different approach by creating a series of city illustrations and selling them as physical pieces. My goal was to make these artworks limited, signed, and valuable as collectible art pieces, despite the intense, non stop creative process behind them. The first-ever drop for DhavDesign was the Lost In Tokyo illustration, followed by Dreams of New York and Paris: City of Love.
Since then, the brand has evolved, developing products such as clothing, accessories, and more leveraging my personal experience in design, creativity, art, and travel. Every product holds value through storytelling, almost like a book with unlimited pages.

2020 City A3 Poster Illustrations
Inspiration for the Tokyo piece came from the urban landscapes of Tokyo that I frequently came across online. The neon lights, dark alleyways, tangled power lines, vending machines, and the city’s warm yet futuristic atmosphere sparked the idea for my next project. I aimed to stay true to the architectural essence of Japan’s backstreets while adding my own creative twist, blending realism with artistic expression to bring the scene to life.
The first drop sold out within a month with organic marketing and rest followed. Who knows if more city illustrations will be making a comeback in the future due to Dhavals recent travels around Europe.
2020 On The Run Graphic Tee
“On The Run” was the first-ever DhavDesign clothing drop, released in August 2020. The design featured one of my favorite cars from the 1990s—a classic Ferrari F40—reimagined in a unique, retro-inspired style that is both minimal and visually striking.
The artwork showcased the F40 in a custom Le Mans specification, featuring an oversized wing, racing stripes, a redesigned hood, splitters, and carbon canards for a more aggressive look. The car itself was finished in Rosso Dino, a rare shade that blends deep orange with hints of red, adding to its bold presence.
A standout element of the design is the sharks—one swimming peacefully, another with its jaws wide open, and a few others unaware as the car leaps over them, creating an action-packed, cinematic feel. The composition captures a sense of speed, danger, and thrill, making it a truly dynamic piece in the DhavDesign collection.

The ATX Shirt is a direct homage to my 2009 personal computer, meticulously designed to mirror the layout of slots, pins, capacitors, and chips. Inspired by the intricate circuitry of motherboards, the PCB Hoodie positions the design on the shoulder, resembling the path of veins, akin to the components inside a computer. The Nano Circuit Joggers complete the set, featuring patterns around a hidden logo, mimicking the CPU’s pivotal role in powering everything.
The IT Quest Shirt is a clever puzzle design, with overlapping words representing 10 essential hardware components needed for a computer to operate. The unique Puzzle Tee, a brilliant fusion of fashion and education. The back of the shirt features an intricately designed crossword puzzle, unveiling the core components necessary for seamless computer functionality. This unique design serves as an educational piece, shedding light on the fundamental elements that have powered, supplied, and enhanced computer operations over time.
The puzzle is a cerebral delight, challenging observers to identify ten words—PSU, HDD, CPU, OS, MOTHERBOARD, RAM, KEYBOARD, MOUSE, and MONITOR. As you unravel the puzzle, you’ll discover how these components intersect and contribute to the efficiency of computing devices. It’s not just a shirt; it’s a playful exploration of the foundational elements that shape our digital world.
Remaining aligned with the thematic elements of drop two, I considered the feedback from my previous designs, transitioning from a vibrant approach to a slightly more minimal and versatile style. The aim was to create pieces that could be worn comfortably across different seasons. Drawing inspiration from the intricate workings of a circuit motherboard in technology, for the PCB Hoodie I incorporated lines that traverse across various chips, capacitors, and redesigned areas, forming distinctive patterns
