About The Founder
Hi. I'm Niharika Mavuri, a Set Designer & Graphic Designer based in New Delhi and Bombay, India working on set design, visual identities, editorial design and branding.
I have studied Fashion Communication from NIFT, Mumbai. I graduated in 2020 and have gained an experience of 3 years over the time.
I am passionate about the nitty gritty details and I am someone with a strong work ethic with a keen eye for design. I look forward to bringing this fresh perspective and a splash of my creativity to the table with everything that I do.
My skill set includes set styling, prop sourcing, in depth research work, organising, floor plans and mood boards, softwares like Adobe Suite, MS Office and 3ds Max.
Why Very Melanin?
Very Melanin started out as a college assignment and I was determined about addressing the deep rooted colourism issue in our country. So, I started an online platform to voice my journey with it and encourage people to embrace 'Brown is beautiful'.
​
Fast forward to 2020, I realised to really create a difference, I need to contribute in a way that actually reaches the masses and create change from within the industry that actually has perpetuated this culture for years.
​
With each of my works, I intend to empower inspiring brand stories and content that makes a difference all the while promoting brown owned brands!
Very Bold
