LOHN @ Home Volume 12

LOHN @ Home is our way of sharing spaces and scent stories in our community.
I’m Geraldine Gonzalez Diaz (GG), a Toronto-based multihyphenate — Holt Renfrew PR & Events by day, freelance creative producer by night.
"Where I’m from” is a simple question with a layered answer. I was born in Toronto, raised in Calgary, and found my way back to Toronto as an adult. My roots stretch further - my mom is Mexican, my dad Colombian - and their stories of migration and home-building deeply shape mine.
Adaptability and cultural connection have defined my journey. I’m endlessly inspired by people: all the people I meet, the stories they tell, the art they share. My passions live at the intersection of history, fashion, and Beyoncé, of course.
Lately, I’m leaning into summer’s softness and feeling a renewed desire to refresh my home and surroundings.

I am—
Inspired and wistful.
To me, a home is not complete without—
Stories - in the form of art, books and memorabilia.

I recharge by—
Spending quality time with my people.
The scent of Guaiacwood always reminds me of—
The lingering scents of the women in my life- my mom, my sisters, my grandmother.

I light candles to—
Enrich the sensory pleasure of being at home with light and scent.
My feel-good fragrance is—
JARO. It allows me to relive the romance of a sun soaked summer day.

I'm currently obsessing over—
Substack reads and pretty home projects.
