FOUNDER AND PRINCIPAL

Melissa Gaitan

An advocate for exceptional design.

THE CAREER

The best design brands do not need more representation. They need the right one. Melissa Gaitan has spent more than a decade in architecture and design sales across the East Coast, working for global brands and building luxury commercial markets from the ground up. A lifelong New Yorker of first-generation Latin heritage, she learned early how to read a room and what earns a place in it.

THE BRIDGE

Her move from New York to Miami is deliberate: a bridge between two of the country's most influential design markets. New York gave Gaivelle its credibility. Miami gives it scale.

GAIVELLE

Gaivelle is her answer to a conviction carried through every market she has built: that exceptional work deserves representation equal to it.

THE NAME

Gai, from Gaitan, joined with velle, the Latin for to will. A name built on intent.
