Our Story

Founded in 2018 by principal designer Elena Rivera, Zurnevix began with a simple yet powerful vision: to create spaces that inspire joy, foster wellbeing, and reflect the unique personalities of their inhabitants.

After spending a decade working with leading design firms across the country, Elena recognized a gap in the industry—many beautiful spaces lacked the personal connection and functionality that truly transforms a house into a home or a commercial space into an experience.

Zurnevix was born from this insight, bringing together a team of passionate designers, craftspeople, and project managers who share a commitment to thoughtful, client-centered design. Based in Austin, we've grown from a small studio to a recognized name in interior design, serving residential and commercial clients throughout Texas and beyond.

Our name, Zurnevix, represents the balance of artistry and precision that defines our approach—combining the creative spirit of design with the meticulous attention to detail that brings exceptional spaces to life.
