Meet Laurie Simons, founder of Celedore
A passion for interiors began in childhood, sparked by a love of creating thoughtful, beautifully arranged spaces. Over the years, that early curiosity grew into a deep appreciation for color, pattern, and the subtle details that bring a room to life.
Though Laurie first pursued careers in teaching and nonprofit work, everything shifted when she and her husband renovated their first home.Immersed in magazines, materials, and finishes, she realized her true calling was design. Renovating multiple properties — and helping friends do the same — only deepened that passion. When the opportunity to own Celedore arose, it felt like the path she had been moving toward all along.
Today she brings together creative instincts, business experience, and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship to shape Celedore into a welcoming design destination. Each day is spent surrounded by beautiful materials, helping clients discover the perfect wallpaper, fabric, or color — and creating a joyful, inspiring environment for designers and homeowners alike.
