Her work is deeply inspired by the people she meets and the stories they share. Through design, she crafts collaborative, community-focused, and ethically grounded projects, aiming to weave together cultures, skills, and narratives with curiosity, care, and intention. For Céline, design is more than a practice—it’s a way to build empathy, create impact, and celebrate the richness of our interconnected world.
She craves multicultural environments in which she sources her inspiration, always striving to understand communities and challenge the status quo.
