MAGIC REALISM

Some designers impose their style. Sara uncovers yours. With her trademark intuition – a gift that feels almost like magic. She guides clients from confusion to clarity, shaping ideas into spaces that reflect their lives.

A Bay Area native, Sara earned her BFA in Interior Design from San José State before joining Harrell Design + Build in 2005. Today she’s the Design Team Leader, a Certified Interior Designer, Associate Kitchen and Bath Designer, and award-winner recognized by the National Kitchen & Bath Association and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry.

From wine cellars and yoga rooms to kitchens, suites, and full remodels, Sara pairs rigor and artistry with flashes of daring: unexpected ideas that surprise, delight, and endure. Two decades at Harrell have earned her a reputation as an alchemist of design, transforming obstacles and challenges into remodeling gold.
