✨ Lighting & Design — Setting the Mood, Shaping the Story ✨
Elegant interior featuring a striking pendant light with vibrant purple feathers by @coldharbour_lights, complemented by a cozy leather armchair and chic, modern tables against a soothing arched backdrop. At the studio, we believe every room should tell a story — and lighting is one of the most powerful ways to do that. 💡 When designing, we always think about what we want to highlight, how the space will be used throughout the day, and how lighting can bring both function an

✨ Designing Around a Vanity ✨
When we approach a bathroom design, we always start with a focal point — and the vanity often sets the tone for the entire space. It anchors the layout, influences the material palette, and ties together the flooring, tiles, and lighting. 🖤 In this ensuite, space was limited and shared by two people, so we opted for a single, larger basin rather than two smaller vanities. The goal was to maximise function without compromising flow — and if you do have the space, a double van

These AI concepts explore how a home’s entrance can feel both welcoming and architectural — where wood floors flow naturally toward the light and pair effortlessly with Critall-style doors in the background. The combination is timeless: natural, tactile, and quietly elegant. At Sarah Burrows Studio, we use AI

✨ Dinesen in Design ✨
I’ve known about @dinesen for years — and every time I see one of their projects, I’m reminded why their work is so timeless. 🤍 Dinesen isn’t just about wood flooring — it’s about craftsmanship, heritage, and a deep respect for nature. Each plank is made from slow-grown Douglas fir or oak sourced from sustainable European forests, carefully selected and crafted to highlight the wood’s natural character. 🌿 What I love most is how Dinesen floors complement both residential a

✨ Concept & Development — Exploring AI in Design ✨
AI is a big topic in our house at the moment. With teens who are told not to use it for school, and a husband exploring its potential in business — it’s a conversation that keeps coming up! At @decorex_international this year, AI came up again and again in discussions — how studios can use it, and how it’s becoming a tool we can’t really ignore if we want to keep evolving. I’ll be honest — I started using AI mainly for admin and research, but recently I’ve begun experimentin
