Sarah Lyons Design is a full-service firm specializing in architectural consultation and specification, stemming from Sarah's foundation in the architecture school at the University of Virginia. Sarah honed her craft on both coasts, learning from her beloved mentor, the esteemed Benita McConnell in San Francisco, before moving to New York in 2008. In Manhattan, Sarah worked first under the chic guidance of antiques guru Timothy Whealon, who instilled in her a deep appreciation for vintage combined with a discernment for contemporary art. She then joined the team at S.R. Gambrel, where she became a lead project manager and designer under Steven's uniquely gifted and world-renowned eye for over 11 years.

Sarah imbues all that she has learned into her design. Having grown up in the Midwest, she ensures that her projects maintain a sense of family-friendly usability. Sarah now resides in Charlotte with her husband and four children, where textiles and finishes are put to the test daily. She is happiest sitting by the fire with her loved ones in a beautiful room.
