No project begins without her dynamic, bold and creative approach, nor leaves the studio without her meticulous attention to detail and accuracy. Connie graduated with honors in 1988 with a Bachelor of Interior Design from the University of Manitoba. Continuing on to Toronto, the opportunity to be involved in many international hospitality and hotel projects including a work term in Singapore, left her with a passion for travel and a keen interest in global culture. Expanding her diverse repertoire into corporate design saw a move to Calgary in 1993. In 1999 Connie formed the boutique design studio of ce de ce inc. and Connie Young Design, focusing on single and multi-family residential design and hospitality projects including restaurants, bars and hotels. "Out of the box" thinking and a "how can we do it better and smarter" approach to everything she touches has garnered Connie and her team an exceptional reputation and considerable recognition. Strategic planning and focus on innovation and systems development are key to the teams' expertise. Creating experiential and bespoke environments for living and entertaining; creating happiness and comfort for the user. ### Services Provided - Interior Design - Kitchen Design - Space Planning - Furniture Selection - Lighting Design - Floor Plans - House Plans - 3D Rendering - Drafting - Art + Accessory Resourcing and Procurement - Base Building Review / Site Inspection - Budget Projections & Costing - Budget Tracking - Conceptual Development - Construction Documents & Specifications - Coordination of Engineers & Architects - Custom Design of Furniture & Fixtures - Custom Lighting Design - Detailed Programming & Analysis - Detailed Scheduling - Feasibility Studies - Furniture & Fixture Analysis & Planning - Furniture Resourcing, Specification & Procurement - Interior Planning & Space Allocation - Kitchen Equipment Layout & Design - Material Sourcing & Specification - Move-In Coordination - Post Occupancy Services - Site Review & Administration - Strategic Design & Detail Development - Tendering & Tender Award ### Areas Served - Calgary - Edmonton - Maui - Palm Springs - Saskatoon - Vancouver ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Connie Young Design, a division of ce de ce inc. | | Address | 712 Salisbury Avenue SE, Calgary, Alberta T2G 4J8, Canada | | Phone | (403) 245-6568 | | Website | http://www.connieyoungdesign.com | | Followers on Houzz | 125 | ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Connie Young Design, a division of ce de ce inc.](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/connie-young-design-a-division-of-ce-de-ce-inc-pfvwus-pf~1988707128) - **Website:** http://www.connieyoungdesign.com - **Phone:** (403) 245-6568 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - Sub-Zero / Wolf Kitchen Design Competition, Western Canada, 2013, 2017 - IDA Gold Award, ce de ce Offices, 2007 - IDA Silver Award, Orman Residence, 2007 - IDA Silver Award, Spirit Bar, 2007 - Sub-Zero / Wolf Kitchen Design Competition - Western Canada Award, 2004 - **Best of Houzz:** 2 awards (2015–2020), for Design, Service. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 5 reviews** ### All 5 reviews **★★★★★ — Reclaimed Trading Co, Sept. 2014** > We love what you do, Connie Young always comes into our shop and is a great client of ours! Keep up the good work everyone! **★★★★★ — sgolinowski, March 2014** > We have had the pleasure of working with the CE DE CE team since 2010, during both the design & furnishing stages of our custom built home. Connie, Angelique, Ethan & the remainder of the CE DE CE team have always been very professional, accommodating and reliable to work with! > > Our custom homebuilder and CE DE CE worked in collaboration with one another during the design phase of our home in Aspen Estates. When we embarked on the journey of building our custom home, we were hoping to incorporate as much Frank Lloyd Wright architecture and design ideas as possible. Having little experience in design ourselves, my husband and I heavily relied on the amazing ideas, suggestions and selections proposed to us by CE DE CE. > > We were always very much included in the decision-making process and both Connie and Angelique were respectful of our budget. Our experience with CEDECE has far exceeded our expectations and we absolutely love our new home! Following the completion of our home, we were so pleased with the finished product that we again sought out the services of CE DE CE to help us furnish our home. > > We feel so grateful to have been referred to CE DE CE and we would highly recommend this amazingly talented group of design experts to anyone. Should we build again in the future, there is no doubt in our minds who we would select as our designers. Thank you CE DE CE for the wonderful experience! > > Brad & Sandra Golinowski **★★★★★ — User, Feb. 2014** > Newgrowth Fine Homes is currently working on our sixth project with ce de ce. They have made a big difference for us as builders, creating a vision with us through thoughtful planning, design development, finishes and fixture selections. The spaces always flow well, all rooms having a common link and cohesiveness. This process has resulted in very professional looking projects for us. > > Layout, functionality and practicality of the interior spaces is so important and ce de ce understands this well. They are open to ideas and work well within budget constraints. The ce de ce team is a pleasure to work with, delivering utmost professionalism and timeliness of responses and requirements with sunny personalities. **★★★★★ — vdanielsen, Jan. 2014** > I have used ce de ce inc. for both a residential and commercial project. I highly recommend the ce de ce team. First, Connie and her team design spend the time with the client to ensure they truly understand the client's vision both in practical use of space and design. This allows them to truly innovate and use their skills to create a space that meets clients expectations. Second, they design for aesthetic pleasure but they innovate spaces that are truly practical for actual use. They do not compromise the use of the space and some how always find a way to make every challenging situation work and look amazing. Third, they are budget focused and come with design features and furniture options that meet financial expectations but still look great. Fourth, their communication with the client is excellent and service is very personal. You always feel like you are a client of focus and your project no matter what the size is receiving excellent attention and passion. > Last, and the biggest compliment I can give is the amount of clients in my commercial property that have asked for introduction to who I used for design, and also for my residential project that both my wife and I would use the ce de ce team and services in any of our projects going forward. **★★★★★ — Miles Pittman, Jan. 2014** > Ce de ce have been a key partner in our home renovations and repair, and subsequent recovery from Calgary's floods. We replaced our kitchen, flooring, and did a complete renovation of the upstairs of our house. We also replaced a curtain wall window in the back of our house. > > Connie's taste is impeccable and practical at the same time. Ours is a house with a definite style and large open spaces, and ce de ce's design has honoured the style in a modern and contemporary way. Connie is very attuned to matters of traffic flow, sight lines and ergonomics, such that spaces operate efficiently and with a minimum of fuss. She has incorporated our ideas into her design happily, and has gently steered us away from some design choices that in retrospect would have been mistakes. > > We also have been very pleased with the way ce de ce interacted with our contractor, and the tradespeople. Ce de ce are very respectful, businesslike, but are firm and detail focused. They are timely and their fees are competitive. > > We would work with ce de ce again without question, and recommend their services to anyone who will listen. ## Selected projects - [Country Estate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/country-estate-pj-vj~2523008) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Sculptural Integrity](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sculptural-integrity-pj-vj~2532980) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Rural Sanctuary](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rural-sanctuary-pj-vj~2532893) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [SoBow Condos](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sobow-condos-pj-vj~2532943) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Pieda Terre](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pieda-terre-pj-vj~2532975) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Parkview House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/parkview-house-pj-vj~2532955) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Liquidity Winery](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/liquidity-winery-pj-vj~2532878) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - [Ridge House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ridge-house-pj-vj~2532841) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Modern Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-renovation-pj-vj~456421) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Rural Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rural-retreat-pj-vj~456502) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Farmhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmhouse-pj-vj~456494) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Timeless Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/timeless-retreat-pj-vj~456486) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Gallery House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gallery-house-pj-vj~456478) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [New Growth Homes](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-growth-homes-pj-vj~456472) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [White House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/white-house-pj-vj~456457) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Urban Oasis](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/urban-oasis-pj-vj~456414) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/connie-young-design-a-division-of-ce-de-ce-inc-pfvwus-pf~1988707128) ## Community Q&A **Q: Love the ironing board idea** *(in Photo Questions)* I love the ironing board idea. Where can I purchase one like this? A: This particular one is ASKO **Q: Was this custom built. I need exactly the same concept.** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Yes, it is custom designed and built. These are built in ASKA appliances, but unfortunately the washer dryer with integral panel fronts have been discontinued. The ironing board and folding table are still available. **Q: Beautiful! I love the sleek and compact design.** *(in Photo Questions)* I love, love,love the ironing board and shelf for folding. Would you please tell me the manufacture's name or where I can find these. Thank you. A: The washer, dryer, folding table and ironing board are all Asko appliances. Great efficiency in this space. The corridor becomes the laundry room when needed! **Q: Who makes the cabinets, please, and what is the finish/color?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The cabinets are a custom design by ce de ce, fabricated by our custom millworker in Calgary, and the finish is a satin spray laquer in white. **Q: Rolling kitchen island** *(in Photo Questions)* Looking for ideas for rolling kitchen islands, including some that could have a custom top, eg granite matching rest of kitchen. A: Custom is probably the best solution to achieve exactly what you require for size and height, We have also used IKEA rolling carts; they have a decent selection, both open and closed options. **Q: Washer and dryer with panel doors** *(in Photo Questions)* What brand supplies these? Love this fir a small condo kitchen/laundry space! Brilliant! A: These are all ASKO appliances and components --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-18.*
