Graphic & Brand Design Intern

AITHER, a design and technology studio for brave new ideas.

We build creative products and solutions for teams of all sizes and ambitions. Working with solo founders, emerging brands, c-suite giants, and industry icons from offices in NYC, Tokyo, Seoul, and Danang.

Our Culture

• Build the ship as it sails — To us, “perfection” is the mastery of constant iteration. We thrive in the rhythm of organized chaos.
• We expect excellence, always — We have a reputation for providing the best. But beyond that. Everyday, we imagine the best of what "could be" to where the best is just the starting point.
• Team vibes — Our team dynamic is dynamic: effervescent in the mornings, hungry in the afternoons, rougish in the evenings. We balance playful seriousness with serious playfulness, adapting to what the moment demands. We encourage self-journey through work, as we believe personal identity is fundamental to creativity.
