Made to be felt.
CINÉ is a creative house spanning studio commissions, artist residencies, and public cultural experiences. Our work takes many forms, but every expression of CINÉ is shaped by the same devotion to authorship, emotion, and craft.
We believe the most powerful work isn't only seen, but felt. A room. An image. A story. A world.
We shape those moments with enough beauty, care, and emotional force to linger.

OUR WORLD
CINÉ is built to hold more than one expression of the same artistic instinct. Through studio commissions, artist residencies, and public cultural experiences, we create work that is emotionally resonant, visually distinct, and shaped with uncommon care.
The studio creates commissioned campaigns, films, and environments for brands, institutions, and cultural partners who want more than content. The residencies create extraordinary conditions for artists to make ambitious, lasting work—that unites local communities in the process. Our public-facing experiences carry those worlds into life through exhibitions, screenings, performances, and events that invite others inside.
The work may change form, but the philosophy and standard of excellence remain the same. CINÉ is a house for beauty with depth, storytelling with atmosphere, and work designed to stay with people.

FOUNDER
Kacey Gustafson founded CINÉ in 2025, not long after making Charleston home.
She began her career at a top New York styling studio, contributing to editorial and commercial work for Vogue, Elle, the Golden Globes, and Halston, with talent including Dua Lipa, Jessica Alba, Nicky Hilton, Ellie Goulding, and Caitlyn Jenner. Drawn to understand how the most ambitious ventures are built and funded, she went on to serve on a $5B+ UBS private wealth team advising founders and family offices.
CINÉ is the intersection of those two paths — where couture craft meets systems thinking. Known for exacting standards, Kacey delivers complex cultural work from concept through execution.
