Sarah Richardson featured in Hello Magazine (Oct/20)

Internationally acclaimed designer Sarah Richardson and her family are featured in Hello Magazine (week of Oct. 19 ’20). The setting is their beautiful “Starlight Farm” home which she and her husband Alexander Younger designed and built for her HGTV series “Sarah Off the Grid”. Sarah has much to celebrate and be thankful for this year. Her Sarah Richardson For Palliser furniture line has launched and her 4^th book Collected: Past and Present (volume 2 in the Collected series – Simon & Schuster) is available online and in book stores as of Oct. 20^th. Sarah’s passion is to provide fresh content and inspiration through her books, TV shows and Design Life episodes on her YouTube Channel. For those not following her on Instagram or watching Design Life, it’s a must to check out. I am currently booking virtual events for Sarah that focus on Design Tips for the home office and making your virtual background a visual delight.

Kudos to Sarah Richardson’s mention in NY Times (Oct/2020)

TELEVISION

If you need the super-strength soother, though, it is Sarah Richardson’s YouTube channel. Richardson is a Canadian HGTV host, and I’m sure her actual TV shows are fine and dandy, but the YouTube channel has all of the substance of fun home design and real estate shows with none of the tedious repetition that’s designed for commercial breaks, where half of the show is spent recapping itself. Blegh.

Instead, the videos have zero dumb filler, and I’m obsessed with them. I have watched every single video on this channel. There is ample practical advice but also ample lifestyle fantasy material — I mean, how should one design the guest bathroom in their ski chalet? I don’t even have a mudroom, but now I have a lot of information and ideas about how mudrooms ought to look and function, and should the opportunity ever present itself, I am extremely ready to design the mudroom of my dreams. My favorites are the episodes about the lake house on a private island in Lake Erie, which is off the grid but also has the biggest sectional couch humanity has ever created. Mostly, though, I like how grounded and straightforward the videos are, and at a moment when competence seems to be in short supply, watching successful collaborative problem solving feels like visiting a peaceful distant planet.
