  • Laura has been living in her house for 18 months. She's been struggling to find a practical layout for her living/dining room, which is also the main path to her kitchen. Laura defers all creative control to The Design Inc Team. However, the Team feel like they have an absent client. Can they find a solution to her design dilemma and provide a functional and modern space while still being suitable for a 15 month old?

    I honestly think that Sarah can do no wrong when designing a space or room. Her eye for design, detail and decor makes her my absolute favourite designer and I would love for her to do her magic in my home 😅.

    Never saw this one during Design Inc’s regular showing, thanks Abode.

    How everything came out so "matching" as like they designed all the future by themselves!!! Hands down to Sara and her team

    Gorgeous space. Sarah and her team are geniuses. Love this show!

    I don't like narrow rooms like this floorplan or contemporary, modern and chrome furniture. But the result is the best, I think, for this project. The dining area I don't like as it's so far away from the kitchen. The dining area and living room area should be switched. That's a must.

    Things I love: The Brancusi bird-shaped lighting fixture; the two seating areas defined by two identical carpets differently oriented; the overall use of space. I don't think one could have done better given the shape of the room.

    It looks nice and the client got what they wanted. . But very impractical. Dining room on one side so your dragging everything across the house. Bench seating means everyone has to move for you to get out. Barn doors limit the size of the tv. I'm sure they moved things around after living with it after a few years

    Miss Sarah on in the states. I always wanted to meet her. I’ll never get to Canada now, but hope she comes to USA on some tour one day.

    I hate how they show the finished room at the start, it ruins the surprise at the end.

    • @brandoniswhoiam

      At least they show the process of how the result came to be.

    OH another fantastic and timeless design (!). Great work (& patience!) from Sarah & the Design Inc. team. Classic! Thanks again, Abode! These episodes are wonderful!

      This still works today because the bare bones of the room of the are timeless.

    It looks great, but having the dining area so far from the kitchen is... inconvenient. I mean, you have to carry all the food and plates and everything through the whole house. Twice for each meal.

  • @jemreandeau3583

    Beautiful, wish they could do over my house.

  • @kj7653
    @kj7653 Před 2 lety

    Beautiful. I love the overall feel of the room. Individual components seemed clunky. But in the end, the colors were welcoming.

    Let Sarah do her thing ! Clients that think they know everything….. DON’T !

    I love the lesson in this video. I often “deferred” to others and then found myself in the way. Learning to say, I’ll consider all your ideas was difficult. Usually, experience & professions of those whom you are paying, using have it right! 😅 I need your expertise in my little house!

    How does it work having the dinning room further away from the kitchen?

    You give a lot of information All right, I'll refer to your CZcams information. Let me know a lot of information from now on. I'll cheer for you.

    Not a brilliant idea to hire a designer then buy a giant sectional. Why even hire someone else if you want to design your own?
    The client screwed this one up. Hire Sarah + don't sabotage.

    I don't like those dining chairs Sarah picked in the beginning.

    One of my least favorite rooms.

    May I ask. All that series was made when? In 80’s, 90’s or 2000’s? The quality of recording look like this is VHS

  • @freedomofreligion3248
    @freedomofreligion3248 Před rokem +1

    This color scheme doesn't read BEST in video.
    Plus, Sarah was stuck w their dining table + now a new sofa. Those are major pieces, and, the client doesn't necessarily have the best taste. Right?
    This client is a "Winter", in her physically most flattering colors. Sarah is not. Clients should look best in their own home. (True jewel tones + very icy tints).

    Marble wood and aluminum tables? too much going on if you ask me. And no clutter? there are six or eight little things on the dining table.

    Not a look for me. Not child friendly. Yuck.
