Obsessions include color, quirky objects, and the combinations of great simple design coupled with the unusual and unexpected. Born in the Netherland and schooled in South Africa, Ghislaine has called New York City home since 1990. She lives "blissfully" in downtown Manhattan with her graphic designer husband and her 2 little girls.
