Designer Crush- Sarah Richardson

I have been known to watch HGTV from time to time, and while I don't like all the shows or designers I do have my few favorites. I would have to say that hands down my favorite designer is Sarah Richardson. I have not seen any rooms she's done that I didn't love. Her rooms always have some sort of unexpected element in them and she rarely does anything too trendy. She is also a master at mixing patterns and using scale correctly. So many of her rooms have lots of different patterns and fabrics in them, but they never feel too busy or overdone. Basically, she is my hero.
I would have never thought to put that wallpaper on the ceiling of a little boy nursery, but it looks awesome in this room. See what I mean by unexpected elements!

This room is the perfect mix of masculine and feminine. And that rug with the head and foot board, gorgeous!

I love her mix of old and new by using the reclaimed wood on the island, and that backsplash is fabulous!

  2. She is definitely a favourite of mine as well! Her and Tommy are hilarious together and I love that she uses thrifted and reused items often. I must admit sometimes I find her pattern mixing a bit off of my taste but for the most part I love what she does.

  4. WOW! I am so out of the HGTV loop, but you are right. Those rooms are all fantastic ... full without being business, great pops of color and the perfect unexpected elements. Thank you so much for the inspiration this morning. I'm going to share on my fb page. :)

  6. I totally agree with you! I guess HGTV started re-airing her cottage series because all of a sudden there are 6 episodes on my DVR. You better believe I'm waiting for a nice, rainy day to re-watch them all at once!

  8. The wallpaper on the ceiling is a great idea. I lack in interior design quite a bit. The only ideas I get are from I watch design shows or look at pinterest...
