Hello, my identify is Célia. I’m a French 3D designer primarily based in Paris, with a particular give attention to coloration concord, refined particulars, and meticulous craftsmanship. I try to inform tales via floor breaking interactivity and goal to create designs that really contact folks’s hearts. I collaborate with famend companies and at all times push for exemplary high quality in every part I do. I really like working with individuals who share the identical dedication and keenness for his or her craft—as a result of that’s when outcomes develop into one thing we will all be actually happy with.
Featured Initiatives
Aether1
This venture was carried out with the OFF+BRAND group, with whom I’ve collaborated recurrently since February 2025. They wished to make use of this product showcase to reveal to their future purchasers how brilliantly they mix storytelling, WebGL, AI integration, and a extremely polished UI, and flawlessly coded.
I beloved engaged on this venture not solely due to the extraordinary group effort in fine-tuning the small print, but additionally due to the artistic freedom I used to be given. In collaboration with Gilles Tossoukpé and Ross Anderson, we constructed the idea completely from scratch, every bringing our personal experience. I’m very happy with the outcome.
We’ve got achieved a full case research explaining our workflow on Codrops
My collaboration with OFF+BRAND started because of a advice from Paul Guilhem Repaux, with whom I had labored on one of many greatest tasks of my profession: the Dubai World Expo.
Dubai World Expo
We recreated over 200 pavilions from 192 international locations, delivering a digital expertise for greater than 2 million viewers throughout the inauguration of the Dubai World Expo in 2020.
This distinctive expertise allowed customers to attend numerous occasions, conferences, and performances with out touring to Dubai.
To convey this to life, we labored as a group of six 3D designers and two builders, beneath the management of the venture supervisor at DOGSTUDIO. I’m actually proud to have contributed to this web site, which showcased one of many world’s most celebrated occasions.
Heidelbarg CCUS
The next web site was created with Ashfall Studio, one other unimaginable studio whose meticulous work, all the way down to the way in which they current their tasks, conjures up me tremendously.
Right here, our mission was nothing wanting magic: reworking an internet site with a theme that, at first look, wasn’t precisely interesting—tar manufacturing—into an experiential website that evokes emotion! I imply, come on, we really managed to make tar horny!

Jacquemus
Are you aware the regulation of attraction? This precept relies on the concept we will entice what we focus our consideration and feelings on. I fell in love with the Jacquemus model—the story of Simon, its creator, resonates deeply with me as a result of we each grew up in the identical place: the gorgeous South of France!
I wished to create a venture for Jacquemus, so I first made it a private one. I wished to discover the bridges between actuality, 3D, pictures, and movement design in a single cohesive complete—which you’ll really see on my Instagram, the place I really like mixing 3D and trend in a harmonious and colourful feed.
I went to their boutique on Avenue Montaigne and built-in my bag into the house utilizing digital actuality. I additionally created a movement piece and did a photoshoot with a photographer.
Céramique
Final yr, a buddy of mine gave me a ceramics workshop the place I created plates and cups. I beloved it! Then in 2025, I made a decision I wished to enhance my animation abilities—so I wanted a topic to observe on. I used to be impressed by that workshop and created a brief animation primarily based on the steps concerned in making my cups.
Philosophy
Are you a type of individuals who dream huge—generally too huge—and, as soon as they decide to one thing, push it to the intense of what it might develop into? Properly, I’m. If I make a ceramic plate as soon as, I wish to launch my very own model. If I spend money on actual property, I wish to develop into financially impartial. If I spend my life in trendy cafés or designer gyms I uncover on ClassPass, I begin imagining opening a espresso store–health house. Once I see excellence someplace, I believe: why not me? And I give myself the means to achieve my targets. However after all, one needs to be life like: to be actually high-quality, it’s essential to give attention to one factor at a time. So sure, I’ve many future tasks—however first, let’s end those already in progress.
My subsequent steps
I just lately launched my Airbnb in Paris, for which I’ll be creating some content material, constructing a model id, and selling it as a lot as I can.
I’ve additionally launched my way of life/furnishings model referred to as LABEGE named after the village the place I grew up. For now, it’s a digital model, however my objective is to develop it for commercialization. I don’t know how you can make that occur simply but.
Background & Profession highlights
Awwwards class
There have been many defining moments in my profession—or at the least, I deal with each alternative as a possible turning level, which is why I make investments a lot in each venture.
However two moments, specifically, stand out for me. The primary was when Awwwards invited me to create a course explaining my 3D WebGL workflow. At present, I would replace it with some new insights, however on the time it was extraordinarily useful as a result of there was nothing prefer it out there on-line. Mixed with the truth that it was one of many first 4 programs they launched, it gave me nice visibility inside our neighborhood.
Spline
One other milestone was after I joined the Spline group. Again then, the software program was nonetheless unstable—it was irritating to spend days creating solely to lose all my work to a bug. However over time, the instrument grew to become extremely highly effective. The mix of Spline’s glorious social media presence and the rising energy of the software program helped it develop from 5K to 75K Twitter followers in simply two years, together with hundreds of latest customers.
Due to the instrument’s early reputation and the small quantity of people that mastered it at first, I used to be in a position to construct a robust fame within the interactive 3D net area. I shared lots about Spline on my social channels and even launched a YouTube channel devoted to tutorials.
It was fascinating to see how a instrument is constructed, showcase new options to the neighborhood, and watch the passion develop. Being a part of such a close-knit, human group—led by founder Alejandro, whose visionary expertise conjures up me—was an unforgettable expertise.
