My New Job - Sarah Richardson Design

Hi my loves. You may be wondering why I have been blogging so little lately, and I felt I owe you all an explanation. If you follow me on instagram, then you might have already picked up on this.

I recently started a new {absolute dream} job, working as a junior designer for one of my biggest career influencers and role models, Sarah Richardson. I still can't believe it! When I first moved to this city just over 2 years ago, I dreamed of something like this happening, but did not actually believe it to be possible. I have been watching Sarah's shows for as long as I can remember, and now to be a part of her fantastic team and learning the ins-and-outs of the business from people who I respect and admire so much is such a dream true. Every day is a new adventure and I wake up happy and excited to head to work.

I am still also doing school full time until June, so between the new job and school I don't have much time for blogging at the moment. After Christmas my course load lightens up a bit and I should be able to resume a more consistent blogging schedule. I hope that you will bear with me until then! In the meantime, I will continue to post whenever I get a chance!

Sarah and her team have been responsible for some of my very favourite rooms, including this one which I just had to draw. The warm colors were calling my name on a chilly October day last week. It was such an honor when Sarah shared this rendering on her facebook and instagram over the weekend!

I'm so excited for Sarah's new book, Sarah Style, where she shares her tips and tricks with all of us, and you can see this and many more gorgeous rooms. Did you get your copy yet? If not, click here to get your copy of Sarah Style today!

In my Sketchbook: Living Room by Sarah Richardson Design

As you might have guessed from my post about 3D CAD rendering, I'm at a point in design school where we have moved away from hand rendering and into digital rendering. I love hand rendering, however, and in an effort not to lose this capability, I have started sketching some of my favourite rooms designed by some of my favourite designers.

Today's room was designed by Sarah Richardson and was featured on Sarah 101 a couple of years ago. I have talked about this room before, here and here. It is a space I seem to keep coming back to.
I can't get enough of the palette! For me, it felt only natural to keep rendering skills fresh by illustrating this lovely living room.

I hope you enjoyed this peek inside my sketch book! More to come.

Green Leopard

Alright alright, I know what you're thinking. Green lep? Really? But trust me my friends.
Remember when I posted this amazing living room designed by Sarah Richardson:

Well, needless to say I'm still obsessed. You just don't tire of a room that gorgeous and classic. And what, may I ask, do you  spot on that couch? GREEN LEOPARD of course. It's amazing, but sadly any time I've hunted for green leopard print I've only found some tacky-tack neon lime number.
UNTIL TODAY.
Enter this most gorgeous pillow by Arianna Belle's etsy shop:

The moss and aqua combo is perfection. While it's not an exact match to Sarah's pillows, I think it's a great alternative!
UPDATE: I have the most amazing followers. Elizabeth of The Little Black Door just alerted me to another even closer match to the fabric Sarah uses:

Goodness the blogging community is an amazing resource. Thanks so much Elizabeth!
Hope you are all having a great week.
