As not only the first female vice president but the first Black female vice president, Kamala Harris is blazing her own path in government. During every vice presidential term, that officeholder takes over the vice president’s residence in Washington, D.C., and redesigns it to fit their personal preferences.
As previously reported by theGrio, Harris tapped renowned interior designer and fellow Black woman Sheila Bridges to design her official residence. Recognized for her vibrant and intricately layered design perspective influenced by architectural and historical cues, Bridges combined the home’s traditional look with Harris’ modern aesthetic. Among the many changes made in the home, the library is one of the most notable.
“This room, for many years, had a very dark forest green and then a lime green striped wallpaper,” Harris told People magazine. “And I decided to change it up a bit. I think that this color, which is almost a fuchsia pink, is also a color of power and it’s also warm. And so, in some ways, I guess we’ve been challenging notions about what power looks like.”
The vice president also shared that the pink office is one of her favorite rooms in the home, especially for family bonding. While some may think the room’s color choice was inspired by Harris’ ties to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Bridges explained that the pink was inspired by the property’s crepe myrtle tree blossoms.
“The trees are right outside the library and I wanted to bring that color inside,” Bridges told the Washington Post. “It’s important to have a dialogue between the landscape, architecture and interior.”
Despite that room’s vibrancy, the rest of the home’s walls follow a neutral color palette chosen to reflect Harris’ hometown, California, and modern aesthetic.

Her pink is how she got power.
But does Cackles have toned arms?
Can not approve of this new trend of skinning people and wearing them for clothing.
What a waste of a spine.
Agreed. Scary that she is a heartbeat away.
We are sooooo in trouble.....
Admit it, we are all in total awe of “not only the first female vice president but the first Black female vice president, Kamala Harris” and we have never gotten over it. As if being the highly successful Border Czar and a trusted public speaker were not enough. She is....historic.
Anyone here who thinks I’m being serious, You Don’t Know Me.
Classic heartfelt version by Ray Charles possibly at his peak.

I’ve been scared ever since O’biden took office. Considering the rotting sack of crap currently occupying 1600 PA AVE, I honestly do not believe she would / could be worse.
With minorities taking over everything, everything has definitely gone to s***. How is pink used as a power color? Do you have to have a pink crayon or something? I thought they got their power out of their corn rows and weaves and s***.
HARRIS IS AS BLACK AS FOCAHAUNTUS IS INDIAN.
Why is it that most “first black whatevers” frequently come from biracial parents? Something weird going on there.
Oh by the way, which one’s Pink?
Her power color is blew.
That party got started a LONG time ago.
Willie Brown says Hey!
He’s driven that Pink Cadillac a few times.
The best black people are apparently white people. And the whiniest of them are abandoned by their black progenitors and raised by whitey. I’m lookin’ at you Obama...Kaepernick....
