Slow Style Home

Fall Deeply In Love With Your Home With Haskell Harris

July 22, 2024 Zandra Zuraw, Haskell Harris Season 33

My guest today is Haskell Harris, the style director at the lifestyle magazine Garden and Gun and author of her first book, 'The House Romantic.' In our conversation, we explore  Haskell's philosophy on creating a meaningful and beautiful home, which aligns closely with my Slow Style philosophy. Haskell shares insights from her book, emphasizing the importance of infusing homes with items that hold personal meaning, such as heirlooms and cherished books. We also discuss the interplay of different styles, the value of investing in quality linens, and the significance of incorporating old pieces to add character. Haskell talks about her approach to maintaining authenticity in home design, respecting the original features of a house, and bringing in personal stories and elements from past homes. We touch on the importance of gardens and natural elements in home design and how Haskell integrates these into her living spaces. Lastly, Haskell shares updates on her current home projects, including a newly finished bed nook in her office and a faux-painted living room, highlighting her ongoing love for creative home decor.
