My Story

Hi, I’m Cocó. I’ve been creating since childhood, always scheming up new projects. Over the years, my love of family, beauty in all its forms, art, and function has only grown, igniting my passion for intentional, well-designed living.

For me, curation isn’t about perfection. It’s about choosing, little by little, the things that make life meaningful. I’ve curated my home and my family’s everyday rhythms with care. A home isn’t just about furniture or finishes. It’s about creating a sanctuary where you can feel grounded, celebrate what matters, and share life with the people you love most.

My design background gave me an eye for detail, but more importantly, a heart for people. Through Cocó Curated Living, I share inspiration, tips, and stories freely because I want others to succeed, shine, and feel at home in their own lives.

As a mother of four, I know the art of creating spaces that are durable, inviting, and beautiful. That lived experience grounds everything I share and reminds me that beautiful living should also be real living.

Outside of writing and design, I love gathering with family and friends. We don’t travel much because of my son’s care needs, but that’s taught me to find adventure and celebration right at home. I hope to inspire you to create your own curated, joy-filled life.
