This Belgian interior design agency exudes a unique vision of creating inviting spaces. Céline Ghins Interiors achieves interiors that feel like a 'home' for individuals, architects and hospitality companies alike. With a focus on merging diverse styles and using unique pieces sourced from art galleries, local traditional manufacturers, auctions and contemporary brands, the talent strives to add meaning and artistic value to every space.
Céline Ghins' own story reflects her deep-rooted passion for antiques and history, growing up around adults who were passionate about these art forms. Her uncle, a collector of 20th-century and contemporary art, introduced her to a world full of creativity and artistic inspiration. Her journey into the world of interior design began as a simple pleasure - a search for unique objects and furniture to decorate her very first home, which was located in different cities over the years.Her background in marketing, combined with her love for authenticity and sophistication, led to the gradual development of a keen eye for craftsmanship.For her, there are no strict boundaries between design eras; the only guiding principle is balance. This belief in balance and her desire for unique, authentic details led to the creation of Céline Ghins Interiors.
‘I also like to combine different textures and patterns to give the space extra personality’
With a penchant for neutral and wooden tones, the agency creates environments that are inviting and exude warmth and comfort. She herself puts it aptly: ‘Our goal is to transform spaces into unique and personal havens where clients can cherish joyful moments with their loved ones, enveloped by beauty, comfort and a peaceful atmosphere.’ Its services of include interior consulting, collection and art curation, and the selection of furniture and objects. Each service is customised to reflect the client's essence and style, making the end result a true manifestation of their unique personalities, enriched with everyday comfort.
For one thing, the agency takes the lead in the final but crucial steps of the creative process: interior design advice.They understand better than anyone that the finishing touches not only complete the space, but can also mean the difference between a house and a home. Their guidance not only includes careful home styling, but extends further to selecting beautiful home accessories and accents of impeccable quality. Thus, they are not satisfied with superficial aesthetics but strive for a holistic and comfortable experience. In addition, they take into account the flow of movement in the room. Every detail is thoughtfully placed, with the aim of creating an atmosphere that is not only visually appealing but also feels intuitive. Ghin's approach is based on the understanding that a well-designed space is not only pleasing to the eye, but also a source of everyday comfort. Finally, collectibles and art contribute to the soul of her design philosophy. Passion leads her to art galleries, local artisans and auctions to select exceptional pieces. ‘These objects not only add artistic value to the space, but also convey a sense of history and character. With us, interior design goes beyond aesthetics; it becomes a journey through time and emotion,’ we hear from Céline Ghins.
