Creating as the visionary of ‘Discover Your Pura Vida’ - Adventure, Cultural, and Yoga Retreats in Costa Rica and founder of ‘Be Vida, Discover Movement & Coaching,’ where she uses her bold ability to listen intuitively, feel and take consequential risks into the unknown to empower others to trust themselves, lead with love and connect heart to heart.

Alyce’s most empowering and challenging role is Mama to her daughter, Amelia Jean. It is through Amelia’s eyes of wonder, discovery, and curiosity for the world that inspires Alyce to make every day an adventure full of LOVE!

Alyce’s Design POV

  • Favorite Piece of Furniture

    Currently, my favorite furniture piece is my vintage MCM Small Bar Credenza, refurbished and lacquered in ‘Sugar Beet' by @renewhomeclt. The pop of color highlights the geometric design of the doors and stands out in my moody living room.

    "She maybe small yet she is bold and mighty!" ~ACV :)

  • Favorite Design Style

    Maximalist. This style celebrates abundance, boldness, and the mixing of colors, patterns, and textures, much like the many layers of myself and my style. I love busy wallpaper prints, bold and layered floor coverings, full gallery walls, and displaying collections. Maximalism draws on many different design styles but applies any design rules or features as loudly and boldly. It has many of the same features as grand millennial and eclectic design, just applied with a more-is-more approach.

    "Go BIG and Stay Home!" ~ACV :)

  • Bucket List Experience

    To live the Ocean Life and sail the Caribbean with my partner Hudson, Baeboo, Amelia Jean, and boxer, Beatrice.

    "LIVE by SUN, LOVE by the MOON, with the stars over our heads and the sea at our feet." ~ACV :)

  • Dream Celebrity Client

    Sarah Jessica Parker is my dream client. Selfishly so I could learn from her, and I feel like it would be an amazing collaboration of energy and style! "Curiosity is the gateway to everything you know you want, and comfort is like a beautiful prison." ~SJP
