Sarah Bennani - Principal Interior Stylist

          Welcome to Bennani Residential.  My name is Sarah Bennani and I am the Principal Interior Stylist. Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always had a deep connection with spaces, fascinated by how the right design can transform a room into something that feels truly alive. Growing up, I would rearrange furniture in my own home just for the joy of discovering how small changes could completely shift the energy of a room and I continued to do as a young adult, always helping family, friends and acquaintances by moving something, fixing something, suggesting something, pointing out something or simply placing something just right, even when they didn't realize something about their space needed to be reassessed or changed for their own betterment or for the improvement of their space. That natural instinct, that drive to curate beautiful, functional spaces, only deepened as I grew up and my passion for design as my calling continued to become ever so evident over the years. 

           As an interior stylist, I see every project as an opportunity to weave together style, comfort, and personality—creating environments where people feel truly at home. There’s nothing more fulfilling to me than knowing that the spaces I design and style not only reflect my clients' tastes, but also enhance their daily lives— which is my one and only goal— to change the lives of my clients through design and style.

          Styling someone’s home goes beyond just picking out furniture or colors; it’s about telling a story—their story. I love working closely with clients to understand their needs, preferences, and dreams, and then using that information to craft a space that feels personal and uniquely theirs. Whether it’s a cozy apartment or a sprawling house, I approach each squarefoot with the same passion and commitment, always striving to create an atmosphere that is warm, inviting, and deeply aligned with the soul of the people who live there. My goal for each and every project I take on is to make my clients dream space become a reality. The joy I get from seeing a client’s face light up when they walk into a room that feels like an extension of themselves is the essence of why I am passionate about interior design. I fervidly problem solve and take pride in curating a space that my clients would have otherwise been unable to do themselves and I view every project as a chance to change someone's life through delivering to them the residential space they've always dreamed of. 

         With all of my heart, I believe that the right design has the incredible power to transform not just a space, but the way people experience their lives within it. A well-styled and designed home can enhance productivity, promote relaxation, and foster a sense of belonging, amongst countless of other benefits, ultimately making everyday moments, whether in solitude or surrounded by those you love most, feel richer and more meaningful. It’s amazing how thoughtful choices—whether it’s the perfect lighting, the right furniture arrangement, or the ideal color palette—can create an environment that nurtures emotional well-being and brings out the best in those who live there. For me, interior styling isn’t just a talent, hobby or profession; it's a passion. 

         I am endlessly inspired by the opportunity to reevaluate and shape spaces that elevate the lives of the people who inhabit them and my continuous goal to help every single one of my clients feel at peace, energized, and truly at home in their surroundings that I have helped create is my mission.
