Celia Balos

Hello fellow humans, welcome to my microcosm!

Balce was born in Târgu Mures in Transylvania, Romania and moved to Luxembourg when she was 13 years old. She has a background in architecture, urban planning and policy design, and currently works in Luxembourg as an urban planner. The concept for Planetarium first emerged when she was in high school, telling the love story between the Moon: a solitary, introverted and overthinking woman, and the Sun: a loud, extraverted, open and friendly man, as well as the impact their complicated relationship had on the other celestial bodies of the Solar System. Planetarium is mainly inspired by Romanian poetry (The Morningstar "Luceafarul" by Mihai Eminescu), Balce’s favorite TV shows and movies (Friends, The Office, Bridget Jones’ Diary), and by her beloved grandparents. During the pandemic, Balce met Carriedreamer, who has helped bring the story to life as not only the primary story writer but as one of Balce’s dearest and closest friends.
