Base

About

One network. Five studios. A company of cultures. We turn cultural collisions into clarity — and clarity into brands that endure.
We thrive on difference. Each studio speaks with its own voice, built on a shared methodology. The conversation between them keeps us evolving; a network that learns from itself.
Every brand is a culture. We get to what makes it real, then give it form with honesty and personality. Less decoration, more meaning.
Markets shift. Technology moves fast. Culture keeps rewriting the rules. So we design brands as living systems: resilient, adaptive, built to remain iconic.
You work directly with the makers—strategists, designers, technologists. No middle layers. With Base Digital, our AI and tech team, we fuse invention and craft to keep brands sharp for what’s next.

Base Geneva

is where typography meets diplomacy

Rue de Monthoux 12, 1201 Geneva, Switzerland
+41 22 321 64 04

Rooted in a country regarded as one of the most coherently branded in the world and shaped by a city built on diplomacy, Base Geneva operates with restraint, clarity, and a deliberate resistance to noise. The studio combines high-level strategic thinking with mastery of typeface design and type-led identities, crafting dynamic brand systems built to last. The team works from a garage-gallery near Lake Geneva, where BaseWindow serves as a public exhibition space for design discourse and experimentation. Founded by Base Brussels alumni Hervé Rigal, Gérald Moulière, and Anthony Franklin, and joined in 2025 by Charlotte De Benedetti, the studio partners with institutions and brands such as the International Olympic Committee, Caran d’Ache, La Prairie, Bongénie, QoQa, SCDH, and the Paléo Festival.

Vincent SauvaireSenior DesignerGeneva

Vincent fell in love with graphic design at a young age, when a pivotal internship introduced him to the discipline that would become both his career and greatest creative passion. By the time he enrolled in ECAL, he was already designing. His education there enriched his creative process, teaching him to work with rigor and precision. It’s this combination that drew him so strongly to typography, a field he explored deeply in University and that remains his favorite component of graphic design overall. It’s Vincent’s ability to work efficiently and meticulously that makes him so well suited to complex and detailed projects. At Base, he applies a strategy-first design method to help clients solve creative challenges. His work is fast-paced but he never glosses over the details—on the contrary, they’re his favorite part.
