I am a French Canadian who, several years ago, fell in love with The Caribbean “Life Style” and its people. What a dream it was for me to live permanently in the Dominican Republic, for more than a decade now, in my “Country of adoption”, I enjoy exercising my profession of Architecture and Interior Design in the Caribbean perpetual summer.
I am a very Professional, Creative and Polyvalent woman who started at a very young age, the profession of Cabinetmaker. With the desire to design and realize my own style of furniture and products, my taste and quest for the Arts brought me to become a Sculptor, experimenting and developing different techniques in wood, in casting & moulding metal, carving stone and other materials, allowing me to achieve my goal to master the Integration of Sculpture into Architecture and Interior Design.
Ambitious and creative, I started working in Architecture and Construction, and one project in particular was a Magnificent Dodecagon Glass-House, a “Sculpture-House-Studio” of three levels, where I used to live and practice my profession in Canada. Later on, I was invited to work abroad, in the Tropical Countries, where I built and developed, with a Canadian team, a Complete Hotel Resort in the Caribbean. Afterwards, I chose the Dominican Republic as my base, where I created my company CC Project Design in Santo Domingo.
Since then, I have been offering different services with my qualified staff in Interior Design, from Custom-Made Furniture, construction from the ground, to remodeling villas and apartments, offices and commercial stores. Having the opportunity to work and help renowned Architects, Decorators, and Builders, to achieve their ambitious works. Today what keeps me inspired professionally, is making clients enthusiastic about the result of their project.
Listening to what people desire, being creative and dedicated with all my expertise, always brings greater results than the original expectation.
It gives me great pleasure to be able to create and materialize what began as just a simple idea!
