Modern in Spirit. Always Timeless. Our Philosophy: Change is good


Design is about change. Each new chapter within our lives propels us to adjust our environments. Downsizing, upsizing, relocation, and freshening are several reasons the experience of an Interior Designer is welcomed. The relationship between the client and designer should be open and comfortable. Establishing trust by keeping an open dialogue regarding design direction within a well designed budget, creates a platform to enjoy the creative process to the fullest. After all, “change is good”.

SALLY RICHARDSON

Sally Richardson has been creating beautiful environments for over 30 years. Her career started in visual merchandising – staging high-end fashion and furnishings. She was soon recognized for her talents, winning her awards in that field. With an education in Fine Arts and Journalism already accomplished, Sally continued her education in Interior design. Her career path led her to the design firm that she owns today. Working in the design field for more than 27 years (25 in Naples, FL), has enabled her to create many beautiful projects ranging from high-end new construction to remodeling or redoing.

Sally enjoys bringing her years of artistic knowledge and experience to every project she works on – she pays close attention to the aesthetic tastes of her clients and strives to achieve an end-result that not only compliments their taste, but also their lifestyles. Sally is passionate about combining building materials, textures and textiles, and is constantly seeking out new products and resources. She also enjoys spending time creating unique individualized pieces for her clients. “I like to establish a value on every project at the very beginning so that we can really enjoy the process – keeping it comfortable and welcoming, with an open mind to fulfill everyone’s needs.”

With an understanding of scheduling needs and budgetary selections, Sally has a firm grasp on being a team member with builders and contractors, and has collaborated on several homes with Naples custom home builder Parker Borelli. To date, three of Sally’s design projects have been prominently featured in Florida Design Magazine, with the most recent feature in the fall of 2025 (see our PRESS page).

Sally’s career path takes her on the road as well, and has completed projects in Montana, Winter Park, FL, St John, VI and more. With her love of art and textiles, Sally launched a new division of her company, The Silver Sparrow in 2020, with a retail boutique space featuring hand-selected items for the home, located at Chesterdale’s Home & Garden in Naples, FL.
