Alivia

Alivia – Master of Receiving, Caudelle Interior Installations

When it comes to what’s incoming, Alivia’s got it down to a science (and an art). As Caudelle’s Master of Receiving, she’s the first point of contact for every designer sofa, priceless painting, and custom crafted piece that passes through our doors.

Armed with a sharp eye, and an encyclopedic knowledge of how things should look when they arrive, Alivia inspects, documents, and organizes every item with care and precision. Whether she’s unpacking a crate from Paris or navigating a mystery delivery with no paperwork (it happens), Alivia handles it all with calm confidence and just the right amount of sass.

She’s the quiet powerhouse behind every seamless install, and the reason our clients sleep well at night.
