Recent Media Coverage of
Sara K. Torjman Interiors
- Interior Design Trends for Every Lifestyle, Lifestyle
Magazine, November 2006
Sara says:
"Communicate your needs, wants, wishes, and dreams to the
designer. Show her magazine pictures of interiors that you like.
Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words."
"People are hungry for color. Subtle is O-U-T, and
fabric houses are responding by launching new collections with vibrant
colors."
"Another trend is that the TV, once considered a design
eyesore, is coming out of the closet - literally. Flat screen TVs can
stand on their own, and plasma TVs adorn walls like works of art.
...glass art is in high demand. "There is something very magical about
glass. It's the item for interiors." " ... it is important to
have good chemistry with your interior designer. If you don't feel
comfortable working with your designer, they're not a good match. Also
be patient to see the project through to the end. When a project
requires work by different contractors it often will take longer than
originally planned." -

Classes Offered
|
Class offered Feb 22, 2007
"Lighting Design Basics":
Lighting is an extremely important component in the design of a room. It is
the lighting that shows the overall design in the room. If poorly done, the
room with the most sophisticated design scheme will fail to show the work
that was done in the room. On the other hand, if cleverly done, even the
room with the simplest design scheme will look very impressive. Lighting
influences the appearance of a room, sets the tone, and creates the mood
that you are trying to convey. The participants will be introduced to the
different types of lighting, their function and application.
Class offered Feb 15, 2007 through Northampton Township and
July 17, 2007 as part of "Seashore Conversations" lecture series for the
