Early Life |
Maggie was born in Goulburn NSW and grew up spending a lot of time on her family farm out of town. The house she grew up in was a 1920's architect designed sprawling Californian bungalow.
It featured beautifully ornate plastered ceilings, tessellated tiles and sturdy exposed beams. Maggie remembers getting lost in those ceiling patterns, being captivated by motes of dust and running her fingers along the textured pathways of pile on an old ottoman. |
