After graduating in 2005 she worked with various design studios, focusing on interior architecture and design. In 2013 she established her studio in Milan. The activities of Cristina Celestino and her studio range from residential, hospitality, and commercial projects, to creative direction and product design.

This allows her to move across history and traditions, altering the scale of objects and creating new conceptual and decorative canons. Cristina Celestino's work has been featured in prominent publications, including being mentioned for multiple years in AD 100 Best Designers selection, Domus, Elle Decor, Wallpaper, AD, Ideat, and Vogue. She has won several Elle Decor International Design Awards in the wallcovering category; in 2016 she was conferred the special jury prize at Salone del Mobile and in 2022 by Maison & Objet the ‘ Best Designer of the Year’ award.
