The Boom — Design’s New Era with Sara Hillery
Welcome back to Season 11 of Couture & Construction! On today’s episode, host Andrew Denny sits down with Sara Hillery, the talented principal of Sara Hillery Interior Design, based in Richmond, Virginia.
Sara shares her unique approach to interior design,
emphasizing the art of storytelling and how it shapes the spaces we create. She
reflects on the recent surge in interest within the design industry, driven by
social media and the pandemic, which has transformed how clients envision their
homes. Sara discusses the significance of understanding clients' personal
histories and cultural influences, and how these elements are essential in
crafting distinctive and meaningful environments.
Let’s Sum It Up:
The design boom has redefined client expectations and the
role of designers in creating personalized spaces.
Authentic storytelling in design fosters deeper
connections between clients and their homes.
Each project is a canvas for expressing individuality,
heritage, and the unique narratives of those who inhabit the space.
Until next time — keep cultivating creativity.
