THE RIGHT
COMPOSITION

Working together in harmony.

Because of our experience working in-house, we’re building Vivace to be the agency we always wanted working with us.

With more than 80 years of combined experience and intentionally diverse backgrounds, we’ve created a team with the right balance of perspectives to do the best work.

An Italian word meaning lively or spirited.

Vivace is a musical term used to describe a fast and energetic tempo – and the spirit we bring to all of our work.
OUR VALUES

What guides our work

The way we work matters just as much as the work itself. These values shape how we show up for each other and for our clients, guiding how we think, collaborate, and create in small ways that, together, shape something greater.
Bringing energy and emphasis to everything we do.

Vibrant

Connected

Connecting people, ideas, and opportunities.
Pausing to explore, learn, and expand our perspectives.

Curious

Clear, focused thinking with a sharp point of view.
