Anna Sarly, Interior Designer Home "Snoop"

Four years ago, Anna moved from New York City into a gracious Connecticut Colonial home and, for the first time, had extra rooms to furnish. With her background in hospitality design, she set out to create spaces that are not just beautiful but completely transporting—rooms that elevate gatherings into unforgettable experiences.

The first stop on the tour is Anna's timeless and elegant dining room. She envisioned a neutral space that would serve as a perfect backdrop for every season, balancing warmth, ambiance, and sophistication. A hand-painted mural by artist Jayne Howard wraps around the entire room seamlessly, adding a touch of artistry and refinement.

During the holidays, Anna's table setting shines with a mix of traditional fruits and garlands paired with modern, unexpected accessories—a harmonious blend of classic and contemporary.

Anna’s family already had a bright and casual space for everyday moments, so she took the opportunity to experiment with her formal living room. The result? An intimate and cozy destination that feels like a hidden speakeasy.

Tucked behind a velvet curtain, the space exudes charm and intimacy, proving that even the smallest corners can make a big impact.

One standout transformation is a former coat closet, now reimagined as a jewel-box bar!

With its dark and cozy palette, the room is a relaxing escape for guests to gather, dine and enjoy a drink.

Anna’s approach to design—drawing on her hospitality expertise—has turned her home into a series of elevated spaces for dining, gathering, and unwinding. Watch the full tour to see how she’s mastered the art of creating a welcoming atmosphere that’s both neutral and adaptable.
