About OakViva

OakViva was built on the belief that our surroundings profoundly shape our lives. We're passionate about transforming your spaces into inviting havens that not just inspire and elevate your everyday experiences, but also enhance comfort, sustainability, and uniqueness.

Our Story

Our journey began with a fusion of inspiration and innovation from all the beautiful places we lived in: 10,000 lakes of Minnesota and its wild white winters; the urban vibrancy of Vancouver, juxtaposed with the unparalleled natural beauty of British Columbia, and the tranquil allure of sunny Algarve, Portugal's coastal landscapes and absolutely unique azulejos of Porto.

After having lived in the US and Canada, we were fortunate to have a chance to live in Portugal, where we discovered the marvels of cork—a material that not only possesses remarkable acoustic insulation properties (so needed in most homes) but also stands out as one of the most sustainable resources on our planet.

Captivated by the beauty of cork forests and the versatile applications of this incredible material, our vision took shape. We ventured into sourcing premium cork from Portugal, ensuring that each tile is crafted with meticulous attention to detail right here in Europe, using only the finest materials available.

At OakViva, we specialize in offering high-quality cork wall tiles that redefine the way you perceive your living or working spaces. Our tiles aren't just pieces of cork; they're meticulously crafted to merge functionality with aesthetic appeal, sourced sustainably to ensure an eco-friendly choice for your design needs.

What sets us apart is our commitment to providing not just products but experiences. We understand that each space is unique, and our goal is to offer versatile solutions that cater to diverse tastes and preferences. Whether you're seeking a modern, minimalist look or a warm, textured feel, our range of cork wall tiles is designed to meet your expectations.

At OakViva we're not just selling wall tiles; we're offering you a piece of our passion for cork—a material that not only speaks volumes about elegance but also contributes significantly to healthier living and a greener world.

Speaking of personal connections to cork, a heartfelt story resonates within our team. When I shared my fascination with cork and our plans to launch a business centered around cork wall tiles with my mom, she exclaimed, "Do you remember our kitchen feature wall installed over 20 years ago? It's still as pristine and timeless as the day it was put up." It's stories like these that reinforce our belief in the durability and timelessness of cork.
