My name is Celine Coly, married and mother of two children- and living for years on the North coast of France with my sweet family. My family moved to the United States. I did not speak a word of English, but I was ready to make it! It was for me an opportunity to start something new, to come back to my heart, my passion.
As we moved in different states and cities, I fell in love with the process of creating a new happy oasis each time. In 2012, I decided to take the step and return to school to learn Interior Design. I proudly got my degree with honors as a complement of my fashion degree.

Celine was the most perfect partner you could have for any home projects. She has a approachable yet unique taste in interior design. Moreover, extremely easy to work with, responsive and transparent. If you have decision paralysis - she will gracefully guide you out of your dilemmas. Before her, our home felt cold and uninviting, and after the projects finished, it felt so much more chic and livable. Should future opportunity arise We will definitely consider working with her again!

Working with Celine was the highlight of 2020 for us. We had reservations about hiring a designer initially because we weren't sure if we could justify the cost. We didn't have some major remodeling to do. Our house was brand new and just needed furnishing. Easy, right? Obviously not since I'm here. There's a reason there's an entire profession for this. After getting lost in the Pinterest rabbit hole for a few weeks, I realized I needed help. I had a bunch of vague ideas, and my Pinterest board was all over the place. As inspired as I was with all the Youtube designer

Selecting Celine of Living with Chic to design my home was a fabulous decision with incredible results. I cannot recommend her more highly. Not only is her taste exquisite but also her personality is delightful. Working with her was, simply put, a joy. She is organized, warm, and communicative. And my home is flat-out gorgeous. The pictures I attach don't begin to do it justice. The space she created is warm, cozy, and somehow, at the same time, super chic. Consider yourself lucky if you are able to work with her.
In short: LOVE LOVE LOVE

Celine was the perfect choice for our interior decoration needs. She was highly organized, detail-oriented and extremely communicative throughout the process. Most importantly, her design suggestions were excellent! She took the time to learn about our style preferences and designed our home to perfection within our budget. It really could not have gone any better and we're extremely grateful to have found Celine. Can't wait to work with her again soon!

This review is way overdue. We bought a fixer-upper (built in early 70s, original) in August 2018 and wanted to do a full interior remodel. We wanted to get the house done "right" and so we were in search of an interior designer to help achieve our vision.
We found Celine online, called her, and scheduled our first appointment with her. She is the only one we interviewed, but after our first appointment, we were sold! We hired her to do certain rooms in the house, but she also provided input in material selections for the remodel itself (paint color, tiles, door handles, lighting, etc

And to top it off, she is absolutely wonderful to work with. She is incredibly organized, responds quickly and has amazing design ideas. She really thinks outside the box. One of our main goals for Celine was to add more seating in our small home. She not only was able to add significantly more seating for our guests, she did it while making the space seem larger! She truly listens to her clients and does a wonderful job of turning their dreams into

I am so glad we found Celine. She is warm, thoughtful, and timely in completing her work. She really listened to what we wanted and I appreciate the time and effort she took researching furniture. Celine was also very respectful of our budget and always checked in to see what we liked and if we were okay with the cost. We love the items she found and the color schemes she recommended. To this day, I walk into my home and feel at ease looking at the warm design and furniture.

It was a pleasure working with Celine. She turned our house into a home that is both bright and cozy. She is very sweet and genuinely cares about her clients' happiness with her design. She spends a lot of time and effort trying to find the right pieces for the space, looking at many different stores, while also keeping in mind her clients' budget. I learned a lot in the process and gained a true appreciation for design. We are more than pleased with how our home turned out.

Working with Céline to do our full remodel and some renovation was a dream. Her vision for our unique house was spot on with what we wanted, she always came prepared to every meeting, and her execution was timely. When we wanted to make changes, she was right there to help us. Our house turned more beautiful than I imagined it and we can't wait to work with her again in the future!

Celine is an excellent designer who immediately understood what we were looking for and did a phenomenal job turning our house into a beautifully-designed home. Celine brilliantly balanced all aspects of the design process - design, functionality, budget, and space utilization - combined with a high-touch concierge level service. She practically became a part of our family through the entire project and worked hand-in-hand with us to ensure that the work was completed to our satisfaction. I really can't say enough good things about Celine and strongly recommend her. We will definitely be calling

We are glad that a relative introduced Celine to us. To be honest, we were skeptical about getting help on interior design. Will it turn out the way we wanted? We have a toddler who will likely toy with all the decorations within his reach, is this really a good idea? However, after meeting with Celine, her loving yet professional character immediately made us felt at ease, also we felt that she genuinely cared for our need to have a beautiful, functional, and kid friendly home.
Celine patiently guided us through each phase of the process and kept the momentum going. She listened and incorporated

It is clear : I couldn't have made a better choice for our lake house remodeling and renovation. I loved working with Celine during each step of the renovation because i felt her passion through all her research, presentations, and decisions about the project.
She did an amazing job. She had good ideas, made great materials selections ( floor, countertop, backsplash, paints ) and perfect furniture selections.
She always cared about details during the process.
She make our home a dream home: welcoming, cosy, zen, homy, luminous. I love it! She's welcome to come back anytime to enjoy

Our client brought Celine Coly of Living With Chic to the home that they had purchased and to which they had retained Katz Builders, Inc., Custom Builders & Remodelers to remodel/renovate. Celine and our client were friends and communicated very well together. Not having worked with Celine, we were cautious because we didn't know what we were getting ourselves into. Celine, very quickly made us feel comfortable. There was no ego or power play as to who would take the lead in the large remodel. There were lots and lots of selections and decisions to be made. Celine was organized
