Though Sarah Robertson was drawn to design from an early age, she took a more practical route at first, earning an MBA from Northwestern and then working as a consultant at McKinsey & Company. But eventually her creative side won out: after purchasing properties and renovating historic homes in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood with her mother, she left consulting behind and launched Studio Dearborn. Since then, Robertson has built a reputation for kitchens that are as functional as they are beautiful, earning recognition as both an award-winning designer and a thoughtful voice in the industry.

On this episode of the podcast Robertson and her son Owen—who recently became Studio Dearborn’s second employee—speak to host Dennis Scully from the garage studio of their Mamaroneck, New York, home. They discuss Robertson’s roundabout path to design, the Amish cabinetmakers she can’t live without, and the organizational ethos that guides her.

Remy Renzullo is a young American designer, but he’s already packed a lifetime’s worth of accomplishments into a decade-long career: being named to the AD100, collaborating with Watts 1874 on a fabric line, and decorating Castle Howard, a baroque manor house in the English countryside. Next on the list? Opening a hotel in Tuscany.

On this episode of the podcast, Renzullo speaks with host Dennis Scully about why there’s a ‘no ChatGPT’ rule in his office; why he loves close, collaborative relationships with clients; and why he doesn’t have a website, and isn’t planning to make one.
