Many of my family from the Lowcountry of South Carolina migrated to Philadelphia, and I often consider it a second family hometown. From the rich history of the AME Chuch, Black Arts, Music, and Food, Philadelphia is a beautiful historic city rich in Black Heritage with many connections to the Black Southern community, especially those from the Gullah Geechee corridor by way of South Carolina and Georgia. Today, we are featuring Philadelphia Tastemaker & Interior Designer  Dominique Calhoun, who owns Remix Living, a beautifully curated showroom, storefront, online shop, and event space.
