MEET THE MAKER
Vivienne founded The Oddative in 2021, a venture that emerged during a time of introspection and creative exploration. The quietude of lockdown inspired her to experiment with various artistic mediums, and it was Jesmonite that truly captured her imagination.
From a young age, Vivienne recognized the profound impact that her surroundings had on her mood, behavior, and overall well-being. This awareness fueled a passion for curating spaces that reflect and enhance her inner world. Whether through redecorating, collecting objects she loves, or simply reshaping a room's energy, she has always felt a deep connection to the spaces she inhabits.
Creativity with her hands has always been where Vivienne finds her truest self. It is from this blend of personal ethos and creative drive that The Oddative was born—a home decor brand dedicated to thoughtful, purposeful design.
INTRODUCING
THE ODDATIVE BRAND
AT THE CORE
THE ODDATIVE originates from two terms: ODD, meaning different, unusual, or unexpected, and MODATIVE, which signifies an innovative way of doing things. This blend captures the essence of our brand and our mission.
Our unique approach to innovation and design is at the core of everything we create, shaping not only what we see and feel but also how we experience the world around us.
THE ETHOS
Every piece crafted in our studio reflects our admiration for craftsmanship, artisanal production, and a conscious lifestyle. Our ethos is rooted in the belief that less is more, a principle meticulously embodied in our designs.
Handcrafted locally in Sydney, each item is created with obsessive attention to detail from Jesmonite, ensuring every step in our process is mindful of the environment through reuse, recycling, and restoration.
THE INTENTION
We hold the belief that a balanced life is deeply connected to your surroundings, and sometimes moving forward requires taking a step back. We embrace this philosophy by focusing on cultivating calm, peaceful spaces within our homes, creating an ambiance that fosters restoration and recharging.
Our aspiration is for each piece to illuminate your space, become part of your narrative, and contribute to a collection of what you love.
GET TO KNOW
OUR PROCESS
Our collection is handcrafted from our Australia-based studio. We proudly work in small batches using Jesmonite, crafting each piece through a slow and thoughtful process. No two pieces created are identical, and is rare in its own form, texture and finish, being uniquely made for you and your space.
THE COMMITMENT
Sustainability is at the core of THE ODDATIVE's ethos. With a steadfast dedication to minimising our ecological footprint, we meticulously curate every action to adhere to environmentally practices.
From sourcing materials responsibly to implementing energy-efficient processes, our commitment resonates through the quality of our products and the positive impact we aim to cultivate on the world.
We firmly believe that sustainable choices today pave the way for a better tomorrow, and we are wholeheartedly committed to being a driving force in that transformative journey.
