The name says it all: Gandaia. Easygoing, mischievous, and unapologetically fun. Hidden behind an olive-green velvet curtain, it’s a downtown Lisbon secret turned must-go, the kind of place influencers don’t tag until they’ve already slipped out. Bohemian, slightly undone, always intentional.

The brand lives in that tension.
Typography that nods to vintage club signage but lands with crisp, modern confidence. A palette built on deep greens and near-black shadows, cut with a flash of acidic neon — like a late-night laugh in the middle of the room. The identity behaves like the space itself: intimate, a little chaotic, effortlessly cool.
‍
Nothing about Gandaia is over-explained. It exists in fragments — a menu corner caught in someone’s story, a neon reflection on a glass. A brand made to be photographed without ever trying to be.

The curtain hides the room, but the branding makes the moment linger.
