Full-Service Design

Design for custom new builds and remodels from start to finish. Design conceptualization and execution, construction documents, specifications, permits and project management.

Design Update + Styling

For homes that need a refresh rather than a full renovation. Design conceptualization and execution, space planning, specifications, furniture and styling to work off of what you have. We will meet you at your home with a pre-allocated time slot – generally, this service requires the minimum of 5 hours.

Designer Consultations

A one-time consult to get live guidance and answers on your project to set you up for success if you don’t need full design services. In home or virtual. Please call for details and pricing.

Lighting Design

For all your indoor and outdoor lighting needs. Our services include better lighting for the workplace, improved general lighting of rooms, landscape lighting or accent lighting for artwork and walls. We will create your plan with specifications of light fixtures, location and assist in ordering. If you have architectural plans, we can work off your existing plans, if not we will create them in a CAD format.

Kitchen + Bath

What is the key to a successful kitchen remodel? The key is a combination of planning ahead and having a trusted relationship in place. We hope to bring value and ideas through our design process. Understanding the client’s feelings and motivations, needs and investment will make the end result a success.

How It Works

connect

Contact me via an email or phone call and an in office or virtual consultation will be set up to get started. I get to know all about you, your style and your wants and needs for your space.

contract

Once the contract is signed and you’re officially a client, we’ll tour your home and chat about your vision for the space. We’ll talk through your likes and dislikes and take measurements and photos before we move into the design phase.

design prep + planning

Here’s the fun part. I will provide a conceptual design direction with layouts and inspirational color schemes that shows the overall look of your space. Once approved, I use that to design your space from top to bottom, providing floor plans, furnishing, materials, lighting and fixtures. Full Service design includes a 3D computer layout to show your space in reality!

project management

I will handle everything from sourcing, product ordering, invoicing, floor plans and elevations, contractor management, and install of products.

What my clients are saying ……

"Vivian is very talented with her concepts of color and lighting. She designed my entire kitchen redo with the perfect color scheme. Most of all she really took time with me to choose and re-chose colors and try out everything that I wanted until it was just right."
Megan M, Scotts Valley
"Vivian is wonderful to work with. Her ideas are easy to implement as she works within your guidelines. She listens to what you tell her and then comes up with a workable plan. The best part is that she tries to work with items you already own."
Kathy D, Mountain View
"Vivian has worked on several projects for me beginning with a home office redo. I was so pleased that when it was time to change up my small guest bedroom, Vivian came up with a creative design for the closet and built- in bureau that made the best use of the small space. She suggested a light fixture that pulls the room together."
K. Martinez, Capitola
"We love Vivian's attention to detail, wonderful sense of design and all the accommodations made by her and her team. When we decided to sell our home, we once again hired Vivian, this time as our Realtor. She helped prepare the house for showings and sold the house in 1 week over the asking price. When it was time to remodel our new home in Scotts Valley, we called Vivian up for the 2nd time. Vivian and her team completed a comprehensive remodel in less than 4 months. She came up with some amazing ideas for our kitchen and a new bathroom. We love our home - thank you again!"
Sarita L and Scott I, Scotts Valley
"I had the pleasure of working with Vivian on my house remodel. I felt fortunate to have her by my side, as I had no level of expertise. I was a complete newbie, and she never made me feel like I was asking for too much. My house was built in 1952 so no existing drawings existed, so she had to recreate the original floor plan, in order for me to be able to design a new one. I told her what I wanted, and she took it and ran with it."
Cindy P, Santa Cruz
"Vivian is definitely your go-to professional for Interior lighting and design. My requirements were very defined; create a good lighting system for a small business office. She came in, assessed the situation, measured the rooms and got light level requirements for every inch of the office space. It was wonderful working with Vivian and I recommend her to anyone doing home or business interiors."
April L, Ibis Cycles
"Vivian sold my one of a kind beachfront home under great pressure during a divorce. She then found, secured the purchase and remodeled a unique, historical home that had been neglected in less than 3 months. She acted with the utmost of professional acumen and utilized her impeccable taste. I would recommend her services wholeheartedly to anyone who wants the job done right."
