Design Crush: Sarah Richardson
For the longest time now I’ve been saving images to my inspiration files that have been designed by Sarah Richardson. I just love her design style and have to say she is one of my new all time favorite designers.
Not only is Sarah an amazing interior designer, but she is also a TV personality that hails from Canada. Currently she has a show on HGTV called Sarah’s House On the Farm.
Due to a hectic schedule I have yet to watch it. I know bad blogger, but I have been able to see of the eye candy on the web.
Why don’t we take a peek and catch up together.
MASTER BEDROOM: I spy my favorite Hot House flower fabric on the toss pillows, a more traditional quilt on the bedspread and an oriental rug on the ground. Normally one would think that nothing would go, but it all works!
MASTER BATHROOM: I don’t get to design a lot of country rooms, but it is a style that I enjoy. I love the rustic vanities, plaid curtains and chinoiserie style chair. Again a great mix of things that normally wouldn’t sound like they go.
BOYS BEDROOM: Love the wood paneled ceiling! Enough said.
GIRLS BEDROOM: Love, love the shape of the headboard and that teeny peek of polka dot just makes the room for me.
DINING ROOM: I spy a peek of orange floral wallpaper plus a statement lighting fixture!
KITCHEN: More polka dots! Again they totally make the room for me.
LIVING ROOM:Stunning. Check out that massive crest above the fireplace. So cool? Does your family name have a crest that goes along with it?
I’m already hooked! I see that the show is aired on Saturdays. You know now what I’ll be doing this weekend!
Do you have a favorite room designed by Sarah?

Love her too! I started watching last season on HGTV's website and now I tape (yep, old school VHS)all of the current season. I love her humor and the relationship she has with Tommy, her assistant. They crack me up!
Love love love the wallpaper in the dining room!
The living room is my favorite of the Farm House rooms.
I don't have cable TV (really bad for a blogger!) so I don't get to watch these shows. Thanks for the post!
Ack, you must start watching it! She's definitely my fave, and I'm always impressed. I think I like the entryway from her farmhouse the best - you have to check it out, it's amazing. (P.S. So funny, I have a very similar post for next week! Great minds think alike.) :)
I'm a huge Sarah Richardson fan, as well. I love most of her rooms, but my favorite that stands out in my mind is the blue wallpapered dining room with the blue polka dot chairs. I can't seem to find it at the moment. I did a post a while back about those chairs and how, if I were a chair, I would be that chair. Ha!
She's great! She could come help me design a room.
Totally agree..she's amazing.
She is super talented! I will have to tune in!!
I've only caught the show a couple of times, but it's fun to see the process. It makes me appreciate how hard a designer works and the importance of paying attention to detail. I just wish I had her budget!
She is unbelievable, I heart her too!! You need to catch her first season, "Sarah's House" which she buy a split level home. OMG, the laundry/storage rooms, office, kitchen and bathroom were my favorites. I missed the bedroom transformations. I agree that her and Tommy are awesome, don't forget Vito and the crew. I swear if I win the lotto, I am so calling her to do my home. SHE IS TOTALLY AWESOME! The Farmhouse redo is magnificent. I want to be invited.
Love Sarah and i have watched every episode! Even better...Tommy! He is hysterical!!
It was a fantastic season of Sarah's House! She's been my favorite for years and years! Design Inc. was my favorite show until Sarah's House began! :)
My favorite room by her has to be the sunroom she did in her cottage! All the blue and white (the one I think you just used for inspiration for one of your clients). She's so brilliant!
My mom had her recent shows Ti-Vo'd when I went to visit my parent this weekend and I love her! I especially love that master bedroom. Ah, so vibrant.
Sarah and Tommy are great - I DVR every episode!
Love love love!!! I'd like o know where this house is, bc I can't seem to find such spacious gems in SoFla.
I adore Sarah, she has aamzing taste and style - and she can choose the best fabrics in a room - they always wow me!!
I also lvoe Tommy!
I adore the girls room!
PS: I featured your DIY veggie cans post on my Friday Faves post today! :)
I'm also a big fan of Sarah Richardson. All the rooms she designs look truly lovely. Her interior design is both simple and unique. She can match the colors of her rooms just perfect and she is real expert on creating the feel of harmony.
that family crest is way cool. have a great weekend, camila!
Trying to redo my bedroom now, very inspiring!
It is my favorite show! Saturday at 8:30! Sadly, we're having a no satellite tv summer, so I'm going to have to miss the rest of the shows. Love Tommy, too!
Love that girl's room and kitchen! The small dose of plaid in that bathroom is perfect - reminds me of my post today! Sadly I never seem to be home to catch an entire episode of Sarah's show - I always tune in during the last 5 minutes!
I live in Canada so we have easy access to all of her shows Including the three seasons before this one. Season one of Sarahs House when she makes over the big Victorian was my favourite.
Love her! The orange wallpaper is actually fabric that they had paper-backed.
I adore her work - I don't think I'm yet to see a thing she's done that i didn't love! I DVR this show every week!
can't imagine anyone not loving her and what she does. she is the epitomy of design.
Sarah Richardson is by far the best designer on T.V. - no ridiculous features that will look dated in a few years (yes Candice, I'm talking to you). I was inspired by a bathroom Sarah did on Design Inc. and based my recent bathroom remodel on all of her best ideashttp://spoonandchair.com/2010/06/05/bathroom-remodel-before-and-after/
I love her too. And the show is great. You have to catch the reruns(they play all the time), it's great to see the whole process and her side kick Tommy is the best.
I loved Design Inc. before she started Sarah's House. All her rooms are amazing.
Thanks for posting...never tire of seeing her work.

I love her! The work she does is amazing and makes me want to buy a crappy house to renovate the entire thing! could definitely not handle that but she makes it look so fun!
I am in LOVE with Sarah. Love her show and her designs. In fact, I wake up extra early on the weekends just to watch her show. My favorites include: the farm house kitchen, the guest room in the split house as well as the living room; and the TV/adult room in her first house. Seriously, she rocks. And so do you!
I love her too!! I watch all her shows and I like her realness. Tommy...oh tommy! Funny, I was about to post about her too!
