“Livi Design’s mission is to deliver simple, sustainable technology that is accessible to everyone.”
Livi Design was founded in Edmonton, Canada by John Andrus in 2010. The company’s focus is on bringing products to market that simplify the consumer’s life and provides a better and more human experience with technology. We are currently working with the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology to bring our vision of the Casetop to market later in 2014.
