ViViD1 is an architectural design firm and licensed general contractor based in Nashville, Tennessee, operating as ViViD1 Architecture, LLC and ViViD1 Builders, LLC. The firm provides commercial architecture, interior design, master planning, and construction services, offering an architect-led design-build approach that allows it to both design and build a project. Its primary service area is Nashville and the surrounding Middle Tennessee communities, and the firm states it can work on projects nationwide.
Services
ViViD1 presents an integrated set of design and construction services. The offerings described on the website include:
- Architectural design, which the firm frames as the space, form, and function of the areas people inhabit, with an emphasis on responsible design delivered within budget and timeline
- Interior design throughout Nashville and Middle Tennessee, addressing functional workspaces, building-system coordination, and aesthetics
- Master planning, in which the firm assists with early-phase planning to create well-organized, mixed-use developments that reduce sprawl
- General contracting and design-build, in which the firm, as a Tennessee-licensed general contractor, designs properties and then constructs them based on its own designs
The firm describes this combination as a “One Stop Experience,” giving clients a single source for both architectural and construction expertise across commercial, industrial, mixed-use, and residential projects.
