Breathing New Life Into A Vibrant Family Home | Design inc | Abode 

Can we go back in time? I love Design Inc! Really miss the combination of Sarah and Tommy!

I've watched Sarah's various shows for years, and I've never seen her miss a step. She's truly a decorating genius - on top of being flat out precious!

Sarah and Tommy have a special bond. I do miss them working together. Some of those fabrics would be ones I would not have chosen, but one thing I have learned from Sarah and team is…try it, it will look great. Of course, Sarah is in Canada and I am in crazy land USA, so…keep the videos coming, even the older ones, because I need the education. LOVE Sarah’s style.

Lol... came back to see the dining room. I saw a blue and white set of dishes and have fallen in love with this table scape.

Could have worked with that rug. Especially since the homeowner loved that rug. Could have just repainted those red chairs too. It would have still looked great and the person who has to actually lived there would still have the things she loved. I usually love Sarah’s work but I think she went for the more TV ready look than using her skills to suit the client’s wishes. The furniture looks “well shopped” like she went to home goods and bought some stuff. It could have looked just as put together with that rug and those chairs.

Love how Sarah approach’s things, her comments are so kind and sweet.

It would be so nice to watch all 4 seasons of Sarah's house. Haven't watched it in ages

It happens every time; I think that Design Inc. has done its best work. I love and adore this redesigned Living Room and Dining Room! Everything about this family's spaces is beautiful and welcoming.

I love this Project.

I love Sara Richardson. She was the first TV designer to use an eclectic mix of furniture leaning towards the modern farmhouse style that Joanna Gaines picked up and made mainstream. This was an old episode. I hope she does another series with her crew…..

Love your blue floaty top. Beautiful 🤩

The dining room looks fantastic! The pastel green/blue living area isn't my taste, but if the homeowner loves it, that's what matters. Also cool to see what Sarah can do on a tight budget.

Love this...

Hi Sarah! Can you say "miracle worker"? Amazing! You never disappoint! :)

Yay, Abode! Thank you for another Sarah Richardson episode ❤ Keep 'em coming!

very beautiful I love the color skim

At 8:54 I was sure when Sarah said that narrow stairs were a worthy foe, she was about to rhyme that with window! 😂

As always I love every project of Sarah’s, way back to her purchasing houses and redesigning every room. I miss you and Tommy on TV… love to watch you two together! I agree Stacy B, Sarah is a genius designer!!!

Gorgeous, just that spring green table and stools - a NO NO! Love the nice walls and the chandel... Pretty!!!

At the ABSOLUTE top of the game-GO design inc.!!

I wish I could afford to have Sarah do my house. Her designs are outstanding.

Sarah Richardson is a GENIUS designer, especially when it comes to finding the right colors for a room. I love her choices of soft blues and greens. Such a gorgeous makeover!

Stunning transformation 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💕🐨🌺

Wish your show was still on HGTV in the USA!! UTube will have to do for now.

Blue and white, always Right. May we know your source for the dining room chairs?

Now this is the Sarah Richardson design style that I fell in love with!

Loved how it turned out

What FUN!!!!! Love the result!

Beautifully done Sarah!!!!

Love Sarah’s designs.

Awesome. Love the thrifted flee market look. These rooms are really pulled together. 👍🖖✌️🥴

Love, love love!!

I've missed you! So happy I found your channel. Last I seen you , you were going to have a baby and I had cable. Years ago. You look great. Love this design.

Love the.blue.flower material

I have loved everything that I have seen you do since the early days on HGTV. I love the more traditional styles....I am waiting for Modern Farmhouse to go out of style! and I didn't like mid-century the first time it was in Mama's living room! Keep you the great design! Love it.

My take-a-way...flip the rooms, up-date curtains, add some fresh paint and a new slip cover to coordinate a new color scheme. This makeover could have cost a fraction of the $15k budget.

This is just over the 🌝💞

Sarah I love your show and this is wonderful so I can see something new again 👏🏻💛 thank you I love you sure I love your design 💛

Love It

Absolutely beautiful!

I love this show.

I love Sarah and company, I’ve always enjoyed Design Inc.

Wow...just beautiful. I love the colours. 💝

Yay so glad y’all got some more Abode-Sarah is awesome

Absolutely love how it turned out!!!!

I loved the green.

Love the dining room; don't like several things about the living room. Who wants to sit on the couch looking into the appliances in the kitchen? For unity I would have had the same fabric for drapes in both rooms. I also think the photos hanging in oversized frames look out of whack. But yes, this is all a huge improvement over what was there originally.

Such a beautiful change 🌺

Sarah you are so gifted. Love your wanting to save but not cut quality.

I have been so influenced by these blue and white looks! Thankfully she was so ahead of the curve that the style still works, but it's a challenge to negotiate a world of (the dreaded) mid cen mod with the gentle curves of a more romantic coastal look.

$500 for slip cover? I wish!

Gorgeous

Sarah is such a beautiful woman

She was always ahead of her time. That was years ago, and it’s still fashionable today. Her use of colors, and style are timeless.

When was this filmed? Personally I love the use of colors in both walls and curtains and furnishings, but it seems the current TREND in 2021 is white walls, white curtains, white sofas....blah blah blah. I love colors.

These rooms are so delightful. Love the colors and the print on the drapes … yum!

Beautiful!!!! Love it

Sarah does her best work on a tiny budget.

Love everything but the dark green throw pillows on couch. Love her color palette and there’s no brown!

I love to watch your videos get inspiration 👍

When $15,000 is budget LOL . Still beautiful....

I like the colors but it seems too busy. I prefer something more sophisticated like most of the other things Sarah’s Design Inc. does. This is good for a young family though and if the client is happy that’s what counts.

Sarah's vision for the coffee table bench would have been perfect; she's amazing at letting go when someone else makes a mistake. I really admire that about her.

Fabulous !!! 😊😊😊

Beautiful rooms!! Love the makeover!💕 Saw it originally on tv, and still love!!

That is NOT a "plate rail" it is in fact what you used it for . . . it's a "picture rail" and those photos are genius!!

This is one of ur best transformations. Hats off

Siempre la veía,muy buena!!

Wow I love this. I only disagree with her final quote. "Buy the best of everything and you'll have a beautiful home". A lot of designer items are hideous. 😆

So amazing. Sarah you and your team makes magic.

I love the rug!!

I love Natalies sense of humor. And she's right, plastic lady figurines are so underused. Move over tin soldiers.

Coffee table, you knew it was bad Red chairs hope she didn’t throw away because there is a way to get it totally without the red

I love watching Sarah and Tommy! The moment when they realized they were matching was too funny 😂

I do like the way Sarah designs rooms. She makes them look luxurious. Not a fan of the vertical stripes on the wall would love to see more horizontal stripes instead.

Sarah said she wouldn't paint in those jeans...the camera caught her playing in her church clothes :p

Awesome again. OMG you’re good.

WOW!!! Fabulous.

Think the green was kinda forced in this project. Loved the blue and making her dishes work. After diner coffee might be moved into other room. And, same blue and drapery fabric would have worked. Keeping the two rooms more cohesive might have been richer looking. The gallery wall looks busy ...but I love the concept...maybe have all at same level or not so many..or maybe it doesn’t work in this room. Painted stripes in both rooms less expensive? But i do love me some wallpaper.

I like the dining room but not the living room.

I miss her shows on HGTV

Pretty colors. I dislike rugs under eating spaces...ugh. Stains happen.

how old is this - the prices are way lower than I've seen in decades

I love that green.

Fabulous 👌👏👏👏👏👏

Yuck on the Kelly Green material

I love everything except the dinning room chairs.

The designer considers 15,000 a tight budget for this makeover. The designer is outside of my budget. I might find some ideas in this video but not likely. The end result is lovely but I have two reservations concerning functionality. The fireplace becomes useless given the position of the dining table. The white dining chairs look miserably uncomfortable. The red chairs were removed because a coat of white might chip. I see no problem with stripping off the red paint first. I don't understand why the contractor designed a window bench that was no deeper than a book shelf. Does the man not know his craft? What I like best is the solid paint colors in various shades of green and blue. The colors scheme is based on the fabric chosen for the drapery. I don't understand why they did not work from the existing sofa which was both attractive and good quality. Why commit the palette to a drapery print when there is such a vast selection of fabrics? I sew well enough to replicate that slipcover for the sofa. So I cringe at the 500 they spent on what seems to me an unnecessary slipcover.

fantastic

When your room is part of a TV show, time is as much of an issue as money. But I think it would have been worth the time to strip and paint the wood chairs and skip the plastic ones.

The red chairs would have looked good in this scheme. It is a bit lacklustre at the moment.

First time I did not like what Sarah has done. Lower end decorating is not her thing. (Sorry Homeowners. $15,000 is a lot of money, just not for Sarah.)

The green on chairs not for me also the striped wall not for me. Looked like a carnival.

The dinning room is perfection, but the living room would've been on a different level had they used Sarah's green for the sofa and the coffee table was black. The only thing I dont like the hanged picture, they look like clutter.

nice show. would be so much better without the music droning.

$15000 for 2 rooms is absolutely crazy!!!

Not a fan of the room switch, the living room is robbed of natural light & the dining room is not used enough to justify taking up a valuable space, but it is their home.

Harika 🌿

Honestly, I'm shocked by the variety! That's really too much. Like you couldn’t decide which pattern you liked more so you took it all !?

Great problem solving at every turn…and hopefully once the kids are grown they will be able to afford nicer chairs (or at least exchange for the upholstered chairs from IKEA)…. but perfect for now since the kids would ruin nice chairs anyway. Really briliant.
