SEND Office is a practice working across three disciplines. We design the architecture, shape the rooms within it, and advise on the art that completes them — so nothing arrives by accident.
Schedule a consultationA focused working session — on site or remote — for layout questions, finish and furniture selections, art placement, or a second opinion before you commit. No minimum engagement; many clients begin here.
Traditional full-scope services: renovations, combinations, and complete interiors — from concept and drawings through finishes, millwork, and furnishing. We partner with trusted experts to guide construction, approvals, and filings.
Sourcing, commissioning, framing, and placement of art as part of the design — not an afterthought. For significant acquisitions, we work alongside established art advisory partners.
A private tour through New York's art and design galleries, fairs, or artists' studios, curated to your taste and your rooms. From a focused two-hour visit to a full half-day itinerary — learn how to look, what to ask, and where your collection could go next.
An in-house design eye, without the full-time hire. SENDOFF joins your team for a set number of hours each week — guiding design direction for developers, hospitality groups, galleries, and brands, reviewing work, sitting in on the meetings that shape how your spaces and projects look. Ongoing, embedded, and scoped around what your team actually needs.
Every project, at any scale, begins the same way: a conversation about the place you have in mind.
Our three disciplines. Most projects split the work: an architect hands rooms to a designer, who leaves blank walls for an art advisor who never saw the plans. Each handoff loses the idea a little. We hold all three from the first sketch — sight lines drawn where a painting will hang, millwork scaled to the collection, light planned for the work it will fall on.
The studio works on a small number of projects at a time, in New York and beyond, for clients who want a place that feels authored rather than assembled.
Background. SEND Office is the practice of Sarah E.N. Davis, an architectural and interior designer whose career spans work at internationally renowned firms including Snøhetta, RAAD Studio, Warren Office, Ibanez Kim, HDR, and DHW. She has contributed to the design of recognized cultural institutions such as the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library, Summit at One Vanderbilt, the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, and the Charlotte Main Library. More recently she has led the design of landmarked Upper East Side townhouses, full-floor Manhattan residences, and Brooklyn brownstones. She holds a Master of Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania.
Sarah also studied art, and it remains a throughline in her life and practice. Wherever possible, art has a firm place in her projects, and she is passionate about connecting clients with the work of local and emerging artists.
That background shapes everything the studio does: taste is backed by rigor, every room begins as a visual conversation, and every drawing anticipates how the space will actually be enjoyed.
How we work. Warmly, and in real conversation. The studio takes on a small number of clients at a time, and most projects begin with a single consultation — a walk through your space, your references, and your hopes for it. From there, the engagement is shaped to fit: an hour of advice, an afternoon in the galleries, or a full renovation carried from first sketch to final placement. Around the studio is a network of gallerists, artists, craftspeople, and builders — relationships built genuinely, over years — and clients feel the difference that makes.
"A room is finished the way an exhibition is finished — when everything in it is there for a reason."
