Celeste Potgieter
Is fuelled by her relentless energy towards creating inspiring spaces which make people happy. She often plays the role of hostess on both personal and business dealings simply because it serves, and is, her way of life. Having grown up in the house of a diplomate has served well in creating this ambassadress culture – a view-of-life where she feels most comfortable. Experience sells, and never has this expression been left as a side note in her approach to mundane, daunting or exciting tasks and events. Her positive view in life is what many often remember and associate with Celeste.

She likes spending time with family when-ever the opportunity presents itself and thus cozy Sundays are most probably her favourite day of the week. Oh and she has a serious stiletto addiction…
