Vision and skill Visionary space planning and 25 years’ experience mean every project by kitchen and interior designer Celia Visser is unique From her early days training at the NKBA while working for various design firms, kitchen and interior designer Celia Visser has always had a visionary eye for interiors. Visser then progressed to running her own design company, creating stand-out solutions for her clients for nearly 25 years. “One of my greatest skills as a designer is the ability to enter a space and see how it could be improved – sometimes radically,” says Visser. “Rearranging, say, a kitchen, can have dramatic impact on its function and look – and on the connected spaces.” In addition, Visser is always on the look out for new design ideas, and the latest materials, surface treatments, and products. “This is because I love creating designs that clients couldn’t have come up with themselves. Everyone’s an individual and so my customers deserve a one-off design, not a repeat of what’s gone before.” Celia Visser often works on large scale projects involving multiple rooms and as such is also an adept project co-ordinator. “My greatest pleasure is seeing clients’ faces when we have totally exceeded their expectations – saying: ‘I wouldn’t change a thing’. I think this is why so much of my work comes from word of mouth.” For details, contact Celia Visser Design, 54 College Hill, Auckland, call [phone].
