Since the Presidential election was decided this weekend by the state of Pennsylvania (also my hometown), I thought it was fitting to share my interview I did a few months ago with Philadelphia based interior designer Nile Johnson.
Since the Presidential election was decided this weekend by the state of Pennsylvania (also my hometown); I thought it was fitting to share my interview I did a few months ago with Philadelphia based interior designer Nile Johnson. We discuss what has his experience been like as a Black interior designer in the industry, and we also dug into what trends Nile loves right now (and it’s more difficult than you think, since Nile LOVES everything).
