Elevate The Ordinary

My name is Cléa (funder) I arrived in Berlin in 2012, when snow still

fell well into April, when one could find an affordable apartment,

and a night out clubbing cost just ten euros. The city was raw,

vibrant, and full of possibility.

Though I had a degree in fashion, I quickly realized that world

wasn’t where I wanted to grow. Instead, I chose to immerse myself

in the city itself—its nightlife, its cultural scene, and the freedom it

offered.

I was a barista during the day, bartended in clubs and bars at

night, or often hosted events, constantly connecting with people

from all walks of life. That curiosity about people, spaces, and

shared experiences has always been my driving force.
