Our Story

We’re designing greener homes and futures.

the foundation we build on

Onvesso is a variation of the Italian word “convesso” which describes something that curves outward. We believe that solving outward issues, such as environmental and human health, begins with looking inward—namely inside of our own homes and beings.

That belief became all the more real to us during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, when people across the globe were forced to work, socialize, and stay at home. We soon recognized the incredible impact that our homes—and the way we live in them—can have on our health and well-being.

Soon thereafter, we felt compelled to innovate the world of sustainable design—an industry focused on designing buildings to be more eco-friendly, healthy, and comfortable. We also strive to educate people on the lifestyle choices they can practice to lead greener lives at home.

 

the pillars we set up

We all need home environments that are conducive to our health and happiness. To make those home environments easier to find and have, our team of expert professionals come together to make your entire home journey—from architecture and realty to interior design and wellness—a greener one.

Our current suite of services include interior design consultations, dwelling assessments, home mapping, and more.

The design of our services is informed by the Onvesso philosophy which follows five core principles of adaptability, applicability, credibility, desirability, and sustainability. We closely consider each of these factors when building our services and offerings to ensure that our approach to helping you is tailored and meaningful.

We also proudly believe in science and medicine. While our environmental and wellness solutions are evidence-based, we recognize and affirm that Onvesso’s services are supplements to, not substitutes for, professional treatment.

the doors we open

We’re a small, minority- and woman-owned business motivated by an incredible purpose: to power access to better health, better homes, and a better world for all.

Every day, we fight for happiness — happiness for the person who lives paycheck to paycheck, the working parent who doesn’t have much free time, the young adult who’s transitioning into the real world, the future generations that will navigate new global challenges.

And of course, you. No matter who you are, where you’ve been, or what life you live, you deserve access to good health and a happy home.

the land we cultivate

The earth is our first home, and we have a duty to care for it.

At Onvesso, we are passionate about doing our part to help save the environment and better society for all. We spotlight and collaborate with ethical and socially conscious vendors, suppliers, and partners where possible.

Having woven sustainability as a thread in the fabric of our services, we constantly look for ways to move ourselves and our community toward the goodness of our planet and humankind.
