Story

AVCO Design opened its doors in 2017 to work with clients rebuilding their homes after the Tubbs Fire. AVCO is short for “Aesthete Vagabond Company,” a website our Principal Designer, Stephanie Meyer, started in college to document her venture into the world of design and living between three continents.

Stephanie Meyer - Principal Designer

Stephanie opened AVCO’s doors after the Tubbs Fire to help with rebuilding efforts. Before that, she spent 10+ years working on commercial projects, including a blueberry wine-tasting room, a net-zero bank, and multiple themed hotels and museums for international architectural firms Stantec and VOA Associates.

She works closely with clients to develop projects from programming to design implementation. Having lived between three continents, Stephanie cultivated an eye for simple sophistication and a desire to create timeless, meaningful spaces.

Stephanie has an M.A. in Interior Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design, also known as SCAD, and a B.A. in Interior Design from the Interior Architecture and Design School at Florida State University. Stephanie holds active NCIDQ and LEED ID+C certifications.
