An experienced and ever-curious designer, Celeste decided to apply some of the co-design tools she used for client projects (from personas to journey maps and speed ideation) to her own life. The experiment sparked a series of radical events, including quitting her 9-5 job at Te Papa, launching StudioC Design, and with her partner, Glen, building a studio in the bush (literally with their own hands).
Celeste recently talked about her inspiring journey at Creative HQ and you can watch her tell her story.
