What Our Clients Are Saying
Working with Dominic and LivModern was a pleasure from beginning to end. We initially found Dominic through another California-like, clean, and modern house he built. Besides his aesthetic, it was also his statement that he would build our home just like he would build one for himself. That is a very different perspective than most builders, and it really resonated with us. He truly cares about the details as if it were his own house: not just the visible features, but the mechanicals and the detail behind the walls and under the floors.
He limits the number of simultaneous projects, so he and his team really focused on our home. Our trust in Dominic was well placed, and in the end, he built us a wonderful home on which we are complimented constantly. We also left other aspects of the home-building process and design in Dominic’s hands. He handled all of our landscaping design and designed our pool, deck, and driveway. Thank you, Dominic and team!

We love our new house! It is beautiful, extremely well-appointed, and very well thought out. Dominic’s attention to detail is evident in the high-quality materials, appliances, and fixtures throughout the house. He also clearly thought through the house’s functionality; it is laid out perfectly for a growing family and for entertaining guests. Our favorite rooms are the kitchen, the master bathroom, and the deck over the garage. We are very happy with our purchase, and everyone at LivModern has been nice and helpful. Thanks, Dominic!

We recently purchased a completed home built and developed by LivModern. In choosing a builder for a new construction home, you need a company that is on time and on budget, utilizes high-quality materials, and, most importantly, cares about the end product. LivModern checks every box. Senior leadership (Dominic Vozella) is involved in every step of the process, including design, construction, and finishes.
Unlike with other developers, where responsiveness or accountability may be an issue, we found that LivModern stood by their product even after closing, ensuring that every small detail was attended to. We would recommend LivModern to anyone considering a residential new construction project.
— Prakash & Nami
We have found our home to be of excellent quality and workmanship, and we are very pleased with our purchase. Everyone with whom we have dealt at LivModern was very professional and courteous. We valued that they were willing to work with us both before and after the closing to make sure we were totally satisfied with our purchase.

After experiencing his work on my new home, I hired Dominic to update my four-story estate home on Madison Street in Burr Ridge so it could be sold. The Madison home was tired. He updated my kitchen (beautifully painting the cabinets and adding a backsplash), renovated the bathrooms, and freshened the paint throughout the home, quickly and on a budget, with a sale in mind. The work was of very good quality. I sold my seven-figure home in 3 days! His suggestions proved to be spot-on, cost-conscious, and done promptly.

We recently completed a design-build with Dominic and LivModern. Choosing the building route during a pandemic was not an easy choice, but Dominic made the process much smoother than we could have imagined. He helped create the big picture for the house and was then involved with every small detail to make it a reality. His building knowledge, aesthetic, dedication, and, most of all, his true passion for his work translate into an amazing end product. We also appreciated the other members of LivModern for their quick responsiveness and thorough work. We are so grateful to the whole team!

We hired LivModern for a major renovation of our home. We began with an extensive project to finish our basement and then rolled that into a substantial addition to our main level: a second kitchen, mudroom, garage, finished loft, and exterior pool house. From planning to the final touches, LivModern has been phenomenal. Dominic was attentive to our project from the beginning without being pushy, and he has a well-established team around him that gave us confidence that we would get the quality and level of finish we were looking for.
The project took extensive planning and coordination with all subcontractors, and LivModern’s superintendent, Paul, stayed on top of it from the very beginning to make sure we thought of everything. Paul was on-site daily to manage all the contractors and to ensure all communications were streamlined. Owning an interior design company, I had a very detailed and unique vision for each space, and Dominic, Paul, and the rest of their team made that a reality. Could not recommend LivModern more. In this industry, you get what you pay for, and they were worth every penny.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with LivModern. Building our dream home was far less stressful than we were warned it might be, and that’s entirely thanks to Dominic and Billy. Everything was delivered exactly as promised, on time, with exceptional quality and attention to detail. The transparency, organization, and communication throughout the entire process made a huge difference. Beyond the incredible work, working with genuinely good people made the experience even more enjoyable. Dominic and Billy are amazing individuals, both professionally and personally. We are beyond grateful to everyone involved and couldn’t recommend LivModern more.

We are sorry it has taken us this long to write this thank-you, but I have to say that the time it has taken to write this has given us the time to appreciate all the quality workmanship of our home.
When we first met, we saw that you were intrigued by the house and understood some, or maybe a lot, of the challenges that would come with the project. We saw several of the homes that you built in the area, and we felt that you were the right person for the job. Before the actual construction began, there were several meetings with you, your team, the architect, and the designer. It was great to have all the key stakeholders together to understand all the different perspectives. I remember Milk Design reached out to the architect to understand his vision for the steel that they would be designing and installing for the terrace. This was something we greatly appreciated, because building a home is understanding everyone’s vision. We appreciated the collaboration and professionalism of you and your team.
During the construction, your team was on-site daily, and you and the LivModern team were always available to answer any questions that we may have had.
We came to understand that building a modern home is no easy task; the precision and the detail of the construction are extremely important, and you and your team understand this. You brought together amazing subcontractors, who were all professionals and artisans of their crafts.
The LivModern team was extraordinary! Not only do we appreciate the quality of the construction of our home, but individuals who pass by the house also appreciate the construction. One comment that we received was, “When you use great materials on a house, it really makes a difference,” and this gentleman was correct. I think the compliment that we enjoyed the most was when a group of teenage boys drove past the house and we overheard them say, “That house is awesome.”
It is skill and detail that also make a great house, and LivModern built a beautiful home for us, and the details are incredible!
Thank you again, and the LivModern team will always be part of our home!

We were looking for a builder capable of creating a truly special home in a unique waterfront setting, with several complex architectural and construction features. Dominic and the LivModern team understood the vision and had the experience to take it on. As construction progresses, we have been impressed by their collaborative approach, attention to detail, and commitment to bringing every element of the home to life.
