AweVida has come back to life!

Viva Vida has become AweVida. We decided to rename our business as it has grown and truly come to life. The idea and mission behind Viva Vida has been to create a brand that celebrates truly living life, but in this new chapter, we’ve decided to also celebrate the things that inspire a sense of awe and wonder in life. Gabi recently read about awe bringing a feeling of connection between ourselves and what we are seeing or experiencing. This is the sense we hope you encounter along our journey. Let us catch you up on AweVida!

 

We’ve been busy working on several renovations from coastal South Carolina to western North Carolina. Along the way, Gabi has found a partner who has been turning big ideas into reality. Mike “Goody” Goodwin is the talented custom woodworker behind AweVida. Goody is a funny, goofy, hard-working southern boy. He’s a Citadel graduate and longtime South Carolinian with a passion for creating unique pieces out of reclaimed and responsibly sourced materials. He brings nearly 20 years of experience in building custom projects to our work at AweVida! 

 

These past few months Goody and Gabi have been hunting down projects and working to develop spaces that inspire that sense of awe. Together they have been renovating and co-creating beautiful, handcrafted pieces and spearheading large renovation projects. It has been so fun watching them!

 

In addition, let us introduce you to our editor, Ashley Hay Mitchell - me! While I am the marketing maven behind our operation, you haven’t yet met me because I typically thrive when working behind the scenes. I am a natural at making connections and acting as a bridge between creative individuals, one of the many reasons I love working with AweVida. I have been working with Gabi for a little over a year, web designing, capturing content, and documenting the projects as they come together.
