Hi there!

I'm Santara, lead designer and blogger here at Sunrise Designs. I have the best job in the world, bringing together my favorite furnishings & interiors to create an aesthetic that is both modern and trendy, yet timeless and charming. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Interior Design & have a background in floral design. Playing off of my years spent working with flowers, I often am most inspired by elements of design that bring the outdoors inside. I hope you enjoy your time on the blog & leave with new ideas for your own space. XO -SM
