Ann Gish is best known for her exquisite detailing and construction,
along with the use of luxurious and innovative fabrics and designs. Ann
is considered by many to be the consummate leader in the creation of
contemporary silk bedding, decorative pillows and tabletops. The
practical elegance of her design has affected the way beds and bed
accessories are presented in the marketplace today.
Ann relies on elegance that is easy and pleasurable to live with,
achieved through a marriage of form and function. Luxury created for
the senses - the feel, color, texture, shape and scale, and even the
sound fabric makes as it is moved or touched.
In the past Ann has worked as an interior designer, a television and
radio producer, and as a chef, but throughout her life she has always
been a creator. Ann Gish, Inc. was established twenty one years ago in
order to offer her work to the finest stores, designers and hotels
world-wide. Her products are in the homes of many celebrities and have
also appeared in film and tv, including numerous episodes of 'Sex and
the City.' Her bridge line, Ready-to-Bed, a more affordable, machine
washable, easy-care bedding, is available in many fashion colors and
beautiful neutrals as well as great patterns. Also available are
architectural-style steel beds, benches and tables.
Ann was born and raised in New York City and Southern California. She
has lived in France and London and in a restored sugar plantation in
Barbados that was originally built in 1712. She now lives on the Upper
West Side in Manhattan and just loves it there.
