For season 2 of Sarah 101 we cast the net far and wide and tackled a range of projects from city to country, and covered the bases from all things modern to traditional, while still sharing our arsenal of design tools and tricks. During the sophomore year of this series, I aimed to make the grade with my signature approach to design basics!
