My New Job - Sarah Richardson Design

<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">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 <a href="http://instagram.com/tiffanyleighid"><span style="color: #ea9999;">instagram</span></a>, then you might have already picked up on this.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Sarah and her team have been responsible for some of my very favourite rooms, including <a href="http://houseandhome.com/design/photo-gallery-sarah-richardson-designs?page=14"><span style="color: #ea9999;">this one</span></a> 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 <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sarahrichardson.design/photos/a.117834308274435.17207.103339129723953/800156893375503/?type=1&theater"><span style="color: #ea9999;">facebook</span></a> and <a href="http://instagram.com/p/u3EgDpJLq_/?modal=true"><span style="color: #ea9999;">instagram</span></a> over the weekend!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRn578TcJi22Gxwo-I2EYhaiR8bvFAa-kTAFEvRls1_XqRxAvXf7EfFr1I0D5BlOqnXRDHQstpTXG77EBCnrFp7BtukyaOJF6BFw0gvekoV8fFLFeTYxn-pHnCXBZ5C7mjnzXvNGLM6zw/s1600/Living+Room+Drawing+SRD+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRn578TcJi22Gxwo-I2EYhaiR8bvFAa-kTAFEvRls1_XqRxAvXf7EfFr1I0D5BlOqnXRDHQstpTXG77EBCnrFp7BtukyaOJF6BFw0gvekoV8fFLFeTYxn-pHnCXBZ5C7mjnzXvNGLM6zw/s1600/Living+Room+Drawing+SRD+1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieOqVHNNBWzAMiWId4RiFczYY9LayWQMLwTRoEfVKjNw52OILZvlDldtqFusenxB93gtIkjz5xGSkXD5Idug_grLkZ5-Zp-cUzdsBevcVgiXXU6foJ7zOCGZ8R_tw4N5Y4A9Mx4ntHQdw/s1600/sarah+richardson+design+living+room+house+and+home.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieOqVHNNBWzAMiWId4RiFczYY9LayWQMLwTRoEfVKjNw52OILZvlDldtqFusenxB93gtIkjz5xGSkXD5Idug_grLkZ5-Zp-cUzdsBevcVgiXXU6foJ7zOCGZ8R_tw4N5Y4A9Mx4ntHQdw/s1600/sarah+richardson+design+living+room+house+and+home.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://houseandhome.com/design/photo-gallery-sarah-richardson-designs?page=14">via House and Home</a> </td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: center;">I'm so excited for Sarah's new book, <span style="color: #ea9999;"><a href="http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/147678437X/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=15121&creative=390961&creativeASIN=147678437X&linkCode=as2&tag=tiffleiginted-20">Sarah Style</a></span>, where she shares her tips and tricks with all of us, and you can see this and many more gorgeous rooms.

In my Sketchbook: Living Room by Sarah Richardson Design

<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">As you might have guessed from my post about <a href="http://tiffanyleighinteriordesign.blogspot.ca/2014/09/hospitality-project-boutique-hotel-3d.html"><span style="color: #ea9999;">3D CAD rendering</span></a>, 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.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />Today's room was designed by <a href="http://www.sarahrichardsondesign.com/"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Sarah Richardson</span></a> and was featured on Sarah 101 a couple of years ago.

Evolution of a Drawing: Modern Industrial Reception Area

<div style="text-align: center;">It's been a little while since I shared my drawings with you guys, so I thought today I would show you the process of drawing this:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP_ljG_Cx9wBO3NP9HV0xc1YCwsfiFW8jCC2bJHtgJwJ33Ubbau99B0veGXlf5rlhF6CMlEF1P0d_xubiIL56qM7DiJd9DaNoVAtOrrpbefUHGbUXGQjMuEB93a68PYbvDfecIWi9nezw/s1600/007.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="464" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP_ljG_Cx9wBO3NP9HV0xc1YCwsfiFW8jCC2bJHtgJwJ33Ubbau99B0veGXlf5rlhF6CMlEF1P0d_xubiIL56qM7DiJd9DaNoVAtOrrpbefUHGbUXGQjMuEB93a68PYbvDfecIWi9nezw/s1600/007.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>The first step is always the pencil drawing, in which you set your vanishing point, horizon line, and objects.

Term 5 Final Project: Advanced Residential / Piano Mansion

<div style="text-align: center;">Do you all remember me talking about my major studio project for the fall, and then basically disappearing off the face of the blogging earth? Well, let's just say that this project consumed and challenged me more than any project to date, but that the satisfaction of completing it (and getting a great mark) was well worth the long hours, piles of discarded ideas, and even tears.<br /><br />If you recall, <a href="http://tiffanyleighinteriordesign.blogspot.ca/2013/10/advanced-residential-project_24.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ea9999;">my original concept</span></a> for the house was the piano (as the client is a family of musicians), but as I developed the project further, I moved away from such a literal shape and idea into a larger concept of the stage and performance, into a liveable concert hall idea. I kept some of my original concept, such as the pitched roof, but basically, I wanted the home to capture and reflect the feeling of grandeur associated with attending a night at the theatre, as well as creating a liveable environment that was simultaneously conducive to entertaining, parties and performance. Here is the final result (click on photos to see them in larger format):<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2qs7umZgLYAtFlUkU9pRqNFUBtYsi-RPJDZmCs57ujU8OEFbunrvq47U08-z02kWgPEpU4-uAWYGI68yQh1LlU33oNyXzgzNB0RreGZguKLYKzJwAZN82seaWriL1XHPUCYZDl5djkNQ/s1600/Slide1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;
