Mandi Ginsburg Project Manager, Interior Designer, Skinny Hound Lover

What are you up to these days? I just started working with Method (home products) to create their social strategy for brand storytelling. I’m really excited to get to work with a local company that’s inventive AND has a conscious. I’m also looking for a total dump of a house…. er, blank canvas, here in SF to finally do all of the interior/space design that I’ve been dreaming up. 

Where would you have your last meal on earth? I’d go out with straight carnage – a rare steak from Chez Spencer and some intense red wine.  

Who's your favorite quintessential local character? Hands down the "driveway dancer" who looks like a 1980s dad (insert Magnum P.I. visual) and who is perpetually goin’ for it in his driveway on Upper Market.  

Where's your go-to date place? Some of the best times are had getting drunk-ish in the balcony at the Kabuki. Drinks, snacks, and movies are always a solid combo. 

Where do you go to relax and get away from it all? Even though I’ve admittedly killed every plant I’ve owned (like an overbearing mother feeding too much), I love going to Flora Grubb. It’s such a little paradise.

What local merchant have you been meaning to check out? Her Majesty's Secret Beekeeper. I’ve heard they’ve added more urban homesteading type of stuff. A store full of rooftop honey is pretty great.
