Based in Los Angeles and with projects spanning the country, Vivoda’s design approach merges classic and modern elements, aiming to create sophisticated yet cozy homes. Her commitment to building trust and personal connections with clients remains at the core of her business.
One notable project is Alex Walker’s Echo Park home transformation. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, Vivoda’s creative vision breathed life into this hillside residence. The project involved extensive renovations, including a new foundation and relocating the original front door. Meticulous attention to detail defined this home, from custom millwork to bespoke lighting fixtures, including Miele appliances, plumbing from Ferguson and Waterworks, and custom Urban Electric and Visual Comfort lighting.
