BLAIR HARRIS: My name's Blair Harris, and
I'm an interior designer.
It gets to be fairly personal.
I mean you really learn a lot about a person.
You really learning a lot about a family.
There's times when I'm with a family every single day for
six months.
So I really get to know everything about them, every
aspect of their life, and what they need in their home, which
is such a big part of people's day-to-day life, usually.
What's left, I think, in your bedroom is to do the window.
This one's a little more like lineny.
This one's nice, too, but it lets in a little less light,
which I think is nice.
Every project, I mean really is different because of the
client, I think, which is really fun and the interesting
part of the job.
That's something that separates me from some other
designers, because I do like that collaboration.
Me personally, if someone hasn't really requested a
direction, I really like more natural interiors and using
kind of like more natural, neutral colors.
And I like a lot of texture.
I like a room that you can go into and really be comfortable
in, and sit in, and live in.
That's another thing I love about my job is that I'm doing
a different thing every day, and I'm running
around every day.
I mean there's many days a week that I hit like every
borough and every part of Manhattan.
And I'm like running around the city all day, which is
sometimes tiring but sometimes really fun.
It definitely keeps things interesting.
I mean I've been in business for about a year and a half.
And I like that I'm small, and it's a small business,
especially because I really love the interaction I have,
like one-on-one with my clients right now.
And I think it's actually really important as an
interior designer to have that.
I think for the future, just the close future, I'm going to
keep it small and just keep it personal.
That's what I'll try to do.
