When I see a piece of antique

the lines and details are still

something that spurs curiosity,
imagination and emotion.
— DAVID LITTMAN
hudsonvalleylighting.com
T H E A R T O F
Inspiration
For over two decades, Hudson Valley Lighting
has been driven by Founder and Owner David Littman’s
vision to produce timeless, heirloom-quality
collections through a wide range of styles from
the 19th and 20th centuries.
ARTISAN CRAFTSMANSHIP
Hudson Valley Lighting is dedicated to artisan craftsmanship
in creating masterful, high-quality designs with a focus on
exceptional materials and careful attention to detail. The results
speak for themselves—antique-quality lighting designs that
look beautiful for generations to come.
UNIQUE AESTHETICS
Spanning in style from historic to artisan and transitional
to contemporary, Hudson Valley Lighting uses high-grade
materials such as solid cast brass, crystal, acrylic and blown glass.
Superior manufacturing techniques, such as brass forging
and hand-rubbed finishes, along with innovative technologies,
allows one to appreciate the difference firsthand.
AN EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE
The quality and spectacular beauty of each Hudson Valley Lighting
fixture can’t be found in more industrialized products. This unique
experience, not typically seen in lighting design, provides its owners
with a profound sense of pride and extreme appreciation for
a lifetime of enjoyment.
 Washington’s revolutionary style pays fitting homage
to its namesake. Ornate and ethereal, the detailed
curves of its artisan-crafted glassware are balanced
by the pristine clarity of its inner framework.

Where Are You heAded?

astratto 7638/02 in cromatico violet / black edition by romo / romoblack.com.

In the world of design, journeying—in some way, shape or form—is a constant. The turn around a showroom
corner can lead to an inspiring discovery. An architectural structure rising from the landscape might spur a
Moleskine full of ideas. From early September through late June, the pace in our industry is rapid-fire with
fresh introductions in textiles, furniture, lighting, home accents and materials. To a large extent, this is what
stimulates us, excites us, and nudges the design zeitgeist along.

If ever there was a time to decelerate though, it is summer, when the pace slackens and so many escape to
far-flung places (Will everyone be shopping in Europe this summer? Seems so). Taking a journey—whether it’s
as modest as transitioning from your living room to the backyard for an afternoon, or more elaborate, as in
two weeks overseas—further encourages the design dialogue. For those of us with a desire to remain curious,
and sweep through life with a fine-tuned eye, the adventure never stops.

GET TO KNOW FOUR TRI-STATE AREA INFLUENCERS AS THEY SHED LIGHT
ON WHAT’S OF THE MOMENT IN DESIGN, ART AND ARCHITECTURE.
WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY BRIELLE M. FERREIRA
1 THE INTERIOR DESIGNER
ALESSANDRA BRANCA
What is the absolute best part of your job?
I love that there’s still so very much to
explore in the world of design. I like to
delve into new eras and genres and
learn all I can, and then move onto
something completely different. There’s
inspiration everywhere.
In your closet:
My Kelly and Birkin bags by Hermès are
the most prized items in my wardrobe.
I’ve had them for over 30 years and I
never tire of them.
Design pet peeve:
No one should ever adopt a style that is not
their own—you’ll end up living someone
else’s life. Do what is right for you.
Ones to watch:
I love the landscape architecture
coming from the firm of Phoenix-based
Allison Colwell and Michele Shelor. The
company’s portfolio is filled with beautiful
creations spearheaded by these two
extremely creative women.
On your shelf:
My favorite design book is A House is Not
a Home by Bruce Weber. I turn to it again
and again.
Color palette of the moment:
People are going bold with pastels,
introducing them in unexpected places
like on lacquered tables, mirrors and art.
Welcome trend:
I’ve been so amazed and pleased that my
clients lately seem to be opting for smaller
homes. More and more, it’s becoming
about quality over quantity of space.
There’s an increased focus on things being
well-built and meticulously designed.
I own a ridiculous amount of...
Pretty much everything! My home is in
need of some serious editing, but I’m a
sentimental fool, and I have a lot of trouble
learning to let go!

Dream job:
I’ve always wanted to
restore a building by
late Chicago-based
architect David Adler
and incorporate a
collection of great
contemporary art
and furniture into it—much in the spirit
of Frances Elkins’ interiors.

THE STYLIST
KELLY FRAMEL
What’s happening?
There is so much cultural mashup right
now—whether in music, fashion, art or
interiors—that we are seeing some of the
most innovative style mixology in history.
New media has made everything available,
all at the same time, and there isn’t a single
genre not exploring this accessibility.

hot in new york:
I’m so excited about
the recent reopening of
the Whitney and its new Renzo Piano
building. One of the first major exhibitions
in fall will feature Frank Stella, which
should be amazing.
In addition to my painting, I do ceramics
in my free time, so I love artists like Ann
Agee, Francesca DiMattio and Shio
Kusaka who incorporate the medium into
their practices. South African ceramic
artist Lauren Gelgor Kaplan is incredibly
talented and one to watch out for, too.
The things she can do with clay are
beyond my comprehension.
Worth the splurge:
I’ve had my eye on the Dino floor lamp
from Flair Home Collection for a while
now. It is an Italian-made lamp with a white
metal shade and brass legs that looks like
an abstract bird. Great lighting is key to
creating ambience, so it’s a must-have. It’s
like a jewelry accessory for your interiors.
On the horizon:
There’s something about sculpture and
the idea of bringing art to life in 3D that
truly appeals to me. Plus, I’ve always
wanted to try working in bronze. I’d love
to take on a new challenge in addition to
my work in charcoal and sumi ink.
Artist Jenna Snyder-Phillips approaches her signature
works with a former interior designer’s perspective,
crafting pieces that feel wonderfully at home at home. Her
dream collaboration would be working with a handbag
company like Milly on a line of special-edition purses.

One to watch:
I have always been obsessed with the
work of designer Piero Lissoni. I fall in love
with everything he does and am beyond
excited for Design Within Reach to launch
a new collection with him later this year.
What’s trending?
The Brooklyn design scene is currently
having a moment. The artisans who have
made a home for themselves in the city
are being discovered around the world,
and history will remember them as having
been a part of The Brooklyn Movement.

old favorite, Felix in SoHo.

Brought together by a love of all things

textile, Stacy Waggoner and Kate Reynolds
teamed up to create a cutting-edge design
studio offering fabrics, rugs and wallpaper
motifs from top designers around the world.
Now, almost a decade later, Studio Four NYC
boasts some of the hottest names in textile
design alongside emerging talents, with much
of the duo’s success lying in their creative
acuity for partnering with artists, innovators
and risk-takers. This summer, Studio Four

architect Richard Meier. Located in the South Florida
town of Surfside, the Surf Club will be a visual

surfaces, namely flooring of porous coral stone, will
detail the exterior. Inside, handpicked furnishings will
be set amidst the clean backdrop of the architect’s

CHICAGO ATHLETIC
ASSOCIATION CHICAGO
Founded in 1890 by families of American sports royalty
(think Wrigley and Spalding), the Chicago Athletic
Association has been a fixture in the Windy City for more
than a century. The famed location, originally designed
by architect Henry Ives Cobb, has now been revamped
into a luxury lifestyle hotel by design duo Roman and
Williams. “We were devoted to preserving the character
and details of this historic building while creating a new
language,” say the designers. The aesthetic maintains
the building’s original fireplaces with bas-relief wood
carvings, expansive marble staircases and stained glass,
yet speaks to classic Americana with vintage artifacts
like wooden gym ladders, Victorian-inspired lighting and
leather furnishings. chicagoathletichotel.com

THE PALLADIAN HOTEL SEATTLE

The Palladian Hotel, established in Seattle in 1910, was
named for the Palladian windows that defined the
architecture of the time. Today, San Francisco-based
designer Nicole Hollis has taken this historically significant
building and given it a speakeasy vibe with a sense of
humor (pillows printed with Tom Selleck’s portrait, for
example). Reclaimed-wood headboards juxtapose
crisp, white Frette linens in the guest rooms, while brass
accents, velvet upholstery and a tufted-leather check-in
characterize the lobby, with the hotel’s original doors
standing at the entrance of the gym. Ornamented by
custom Ladies & Gentlemen light fixtures, Hollis’ warm
yet playful interiors program boasts a quintessential
Seattle feel and reflects the pulsating street culture
found just outside. palladianhotel.com

GrAy MALIN TeLLS A TALe Of
WhIMSy ThrOuGh SurreAL
IMAGery Of ANIMALS rOAMING
The PArker PALM SPrINGS.
WrITTeN ANd PrOduced By jesse brAtter
Photographer Gray Malin journeys to far and away
places, capturing eccentric moments that spark
fantasy and wonder, like llamas adorned in balloons
amidst Bolivia’s salt flats, or rainbow-hued sheep in
Australia. In his new fine art series, Gray Malin at the
Parker, he keeps his zest for adventure close to
home, shooting at the Parker Palm Springs as exotic
animals playfully explore the iconic resort that unites
luxury with amusement. Malin put down his camera
to discuss the enchanting series, where monkeys are
bellhops and giraffes are the guests, temporarily on
view at the hotel. With an infectious joie de vivre, he
proves the old adage: not all who wander are lost.
Your new fine art series focuses on exotic animals
in unexpected places. What inspired the
collection? Since living in Los Angeles, I’ve always
enjoyed the quick escape to the desert, and the
Parker Palm Springs has been my longtime favorite
hotel there. This was a chance to let my imagination
run wild, and apparently it ran right into a menagerie
of wild animals enjoying the hotel with me.
How did animals become your muse? I have a
deep love for flamingos and penguins and couldn’t
stop envisioning them on the property. Working
with them and the capuchin monkey, zebra and
baby giraffe was so much fun—I wish I could live in
this fantasy every day.
Any divas on set? We had trainers to direct the
crew and myself on how to interact with them to
keep them as happy models. Zack the zebra wasn’t
much of a fan of the balloons, as they kept popping,
but he was a professional and we got the shot.
Images of animals in dreamlike settings are one
part of your repertoire, but you’re also known
for aerial shots of beach scenes. How do you
capture the perfect composition? When I’m in
the air, people and objects begin to stand out and
form patterns below.
Once I’m up there,
everything magically
comes together
visually for me and
I’m able to capture
the natural art that is
being created below
in the distance.
What’s the most

done to get the
perfect shot? Standing on a 10-foot inflatable
boat in the waters of Antarctica, shooting
beach balls up against icebergs the size of
a skyscraper that could break apart at any
moment. It was the thrill of a lifetime.
You’ve said your favorite part of your job is
getting to see the world. Can you offer a piece
of travel advice to those filled with the same
wanderlust? If you’re ever in Bhutan, you must
visit the Tiger’s Nest Monastery, one of the
country’s most sacred religious sites. Built in the
8th century on the side of a cliff, it is something
of another world.

global vision
as she travels the world,
british designer tracey boyd
draws inspiration for her new
namesake furniture collection.
WRITTeN AND PRODUceD BY lisa bingham dewart

photo: david cleveland.

“It’s fantastic to drift and just let a place wash over
you,” designer Tracey Boyd says of her approach to
travel. Until recently, her chances to do just that were
rare. As the creative director of the coveted fashion
label Boyd, she was constantly in motion, creating
edgy yet feminine clothing. Her singular vision—one
collection featured fleece ball gowns—won her a
New Generation Designer of the Year honor at the
2000 Rover British Fashion Awards, along with a
devoted international following, but little time for
anything else. “When I moved into a more organic
way of designing, I decided to go on trips for two
or three months,” she says. “I wanted to go deeper.”
This change of focus yielded Aboydbazaar, a
collection of clothing and accessories influenced
by her biggest passions: life, travel, art and fashion.
Since then, Boyd has been busy soaking up the
world’s sights and sounds, be it the modern shapes
of Singapore’s skyline or the traditional beading
practices in Penang. India remains a favorite
destination and a constant source of inspiration.
“It’s such a place of contrast,” says Boyd. “When
I’m there, I have too many ideas. I have to file them
away and then come home to make sense of
them.” With the luxury of time, the designer can now
absorb the lessons from her travels and incorporate
them into her work, such as in her latest venture,
Boyd, a line of furniture inspired by her journeys
and currently available through Anthropologie. “I’m
obsessed with finding out how things are done but
looking at them in a contemporary way,” she says.
“Then, I put my own spin on them.”
Next on Boyd’s itinerary? She’s heading to the
U.S., where she’ll launch Boyd with Resource Decor
at High Point Market in October. Imbued with color
and texture, the line mixes modern and traditional
shapes in materials ranging from lacquer and
metal to concrete and shells. Before that, however,
she’ll pack a bag with a sketch pad, a few of her
Aboydbazaar shirts, a collection of black and white
beads and a beloved Dries Van Noten scarf and
head to Puglia, in Southern Italy, to a convent that
was reinvented as a hotel. “It’s filled with tribal
art, textiles and miles of books on art, sculpture
and furniture. It’s like having a holiday in the most
fabulous library with incredible food and beautiful
gardens,” says Boyd. “It’s a mixture of work and
play and sums up my ideal way to travel.”

you’ll feel it too. Materials, both new and

ordinary, even the “high-end” rubric;

creating enduring products. “From our American roots to other parts of the world, we like

Equal parts form and function, eggersmann’s cabinetry delivers beautiful and useful
organizational solutions to the modern home dweller. The company, drawing from more
than 100 years of innovation, trial and achievement, is a driving force behind the concealed
kitchen—a design movement that gives way to gallery-like spaces in the kitchen, and
the cabinetry is art. Using earthborn, organic materials such as raw wood and concrete,
Eggersmann’s ultra sleek and clean-lined cabinetry reimagines modernity in a warm and

in various textures, colors and sheens, we constantly push the limits of the basic core

characteristics—flat, smooth surfaces, cubic shapes, neutral colors and open floor plans
(fundamentally pure and resounding in utility)—and is distinguished by technological feats
in cabinetry composition and ergonomics, such as its electric mechanisms, custom storage,
handle integration and exotic veneers. “The wide availability of parts, components, hardware
and materials across the world has caused a demand and push for incredible leaps and
bounds in innovation of product,” soltoff says. “As electronic technology becomes more

Like jewelry, hardware is a powerful accent that can elevate, contemporize or even transform
aesthetic quality. Equally remarkable is the utility of kitchen and bathroom fixtures and
decorative hardware—an element of residential design that was once left to the discretion
of professionals. Today, plumbing fixtures, accessories and hardware selection are as much a
priority of the homeowner as cabinetry, a by-product of the increase in kitchen and bathroom
remodels and the ubiquity of design ideas and information. In general, people are spending
more on fixtures and hardware and placing greater value on the quality, craftsmanship and
technological capabilities of these new products. california hardware manufacturer newport

The Côte d’Azur has lured individuals of the art and design worlds
for centuries, and it would appear that its most recent persuasions
over fashion and interiors have us once again longing for a deep
breath of that fresh coastline air. Fashion designer Diane von
Furstenberg looked to the French Riviera for inspiration when
creating her painterly Spring/Summer 2015 RTW collection, giving
nods to Matisse and Picasso, frequenters of this seaside escape,
through fun floral patterns displayed on wispy silks, while San
Francisco interior designer Antonio Martins evoked a touch of 5
coastal style when fashioning this impressive haphazard-tiled wall,
exuding ancient references brought into modern day with a striking
sideboard reminiscent of a coral reef. At this rate, we’re ready to
9 grab our passports and say bonjour to laidback living at its best.

FORWARD Many mistake the fact that simplistic design requires less effort, but quite to
the contrary; it’s the simple silhouettes and uncomplicated structures that
change the way design is perceived and experienced. It is this philosophy
2
that dominates the persona of our next influential city: Copenhagen.
Blonde wood, open shapes and brushed-gold finishes are constant
qualities synonymous with Denmark’s capital. Barber & Osgerby illustrate
the art of this finesse in the Hula stool, which by appearances is seemingly
straightforward, but upon further investigation, offers itself as either fixed
seating or a rocking stool. But perhaps the father of modern Danish design,
Finn Juhl, whose colorful sideboard is shown, sums up quintessential
Copenhagen style best of all with his clean-lined furnishings. “One cannot
create happiness with beautiful objects,” he says, “but one can spoil quite a
lot of happiness with bad ones.”

Feel: The Air sofa is a modern shape

that will feel more classic as time
passes. It seems like a piece that would
inspire our personal aesthetic to grow
and change. Color: The strength of the
color is that it’s a bold shade that acts
as a neutral. The mossy green recalls
nature and feels fresh. Statement:
This silhouette demands attention and
would inform the design of the rest of
the room. It sets a tone of sophistication
and class—you can’t go wrong with
those brass legs! Sense: This piece
would smell of old maps, leather and
cigars, yet with a hint of perfume.

away from the bold minimalism of a silhouette.
These tables, especially the painted piece, still
feel simple though the pattern is random and

is design and skill passed down from one generation to the next.

how did you come to create such a

thoughtfully collected, fresh space?
the home is located in a young
part of town, so I wanted to infuse
the interiors with the same fun vibe
you would find outside. the client is
super-chic and has a great fashion
sense about her, so I wanted to create
a space to reflect her personality. you
should aspire to create a foyer that
makes you want to see what’s going on
in the rest of the apartment and I believe
you definitely get that sense here.

What inspired the color palette?

I love red and anything that shines, and
the vintage chair was the perfect place
to incorporate my favorite hue. I tend to
gravitate toward a relaxed palette with
bursts of color, that way the backdrop
is flexible enough to change out the
accessories. the wallcovering, while
quite graphic, provides this relaxed
palette. I was also able to incorporate
an eclectic mix of vintage furnishings
along with the client’s own pieces, such
as the adorable retro prints.

What qualities do you most admire

in this design?

something fun. I try to make every

being said, it’s important to incorporate

so the entrance doesn’t become a

project, I think the dresser drawers
help to hide most of the overflow.

design between the clients and
myself. One of the clients is an artist
and has traveled and lived globally,
most recently in London. I myself am
somewhat of an Anglophile, with an
appreciation for early 20th-century
British design, particularly the Arts
and Crafts movement of that period.
It was only natural that the design of
this house has elements that bring
artistic craftsmanship and a high
design aesthetic together.
A property’s context is always key
and here it was providence that the
house next door was built in the
early 20th century also in the Arts
and Crafts style. The two properties
are close together, so it was logical
that the new house should refer
to its elegant neighbor. Both are
clad in native varied stone, use
heavy timber and feature a series
of French doors, which we adorned
with copper screens to help resist
corrosion and damage.
The sunken wall and trough form
what the British call a ha-ha wall.
The front lawn gradually forms a
trough at the base of the pool wall,
which is 4 feet high, the required
height for walls around a pool.
Grasses and hydrangea grow
in the area in front so that the
trough and the height of the pool
are pleasantly masked. The best
achievement of the ha-ha wall is
the unrestricted views from the
pool terrace to the water.

Tell me more about your thoughts

behind the soft color scheme.
There’s nothing more calming and
soothing than being in a room with
pale blues and warm grays. Facing
a backdrop of lush green foliage, I
wanted to have your eye drawn to
the outdoors. It’s a great trick to forgo
draperies and instead frame the view
with a subtle gray hue on the window
trim. We continued the blue on the
picture rail by accident, but it worked
out perfectly. Having had the picture
rail cut off would have made the room
a lot smaller in height.

Once the paint colors were perfect,

how did the design unfold from there?
Perfectly mimicking the colors and
textures of the space, the oversize
abstract painting offers movement,
making everything feel more modern.
Also, in reference to movement, it was
important to have the rooms flow freely
from one to the next. This area is part
of a larger space that also houses the
living room. By adding this small dining
area, it offers the client a more intimate
place for casual dinner parties.

Should a dining room be used

everyday or only for special occasions?
I love dining rooms as a space to live
and be comfortable in everyday. What
better way to wrap up your week
than to invite several of your closest
friends over to enjoy an impromptu
meal together? It doesn’t have to be
fancy—boil some pasta, grab some
flowers from the market and voila!

thanks to the many innovations in technology
and digital conveniences, our lives have
become a study in seamless living, with
phones and other handheld devices providing
an effortless transition between work and
downtime, study and recess. this trend, too,
has found its way into the design of our homes,
where outdoor spaces have become just as
comfortable and wonderfully complex as interior
living and dining rooms. from whimsical seating
options and creative landscape architecture to
all-weather fabrics that are as beautiful as they
are durable, today, more than ever, there are no
boundaries or restrictions on making the most

because they’re so versatile,” he says.
“they provide shade for those who want
cover but allow light in through their

on where you sit, you can have a

Where did the idea to create your

my brother and business partner,

How do you create your

We use the human form as
our inspiration, with comfort
being key. When your body
anticipates that something will
be comfortable, the piece
becomes naturally inviting.

What are some of your favorite form or function?

We’re very intrigued by the cast-able

Because modern design is all about blurring the lines between indoors and
out, selecting the appropriate color palette to tie the two separate areas
together is an absolute necessity. on this welcoming, covered los angeles
patio, designer Jamie Bush brought the yellows and oranges from the home’s
family room poolside for a cohesive look. “i think the perfect outdoor space
needs to be as appointed and comfortable as an interior living room, so you
never feel like it’s second best,” says Bush. “for this space, we used items
like a chunky area rug, vintage pottery and an african side table to make the
outdoor lounge area feel like an extension of the house.” jamiebush.com

BARE
ESSENTIALS
Outdoor furnishings guru John Danzer, of New York-based Munder
Skiles, looks to the history of the genre to craft his timeless, well-built
offerings. Here, he shares his tips for effortless outdoor living.

Take stock: Think about how
you use your home, not only
when you’re there with your
immediate family but when
you’re entertaining extended
family and friends, too.
Simplify: Don’t overcomplicate
your life. My job is complex,
but my furniture is not. Look
for well-designed furniture that
fits the shape of your body
and is naturally comfortable.
Let nature shine: I can’t stand
furniture being too prominent
in a garden. Everything you
bring into your outdoor space
should be able to recede so
you can enjoy the real reason
you’re out there: to be closer
to nature. munder-skiles.com

Anyone who thinks that being made to sit on the bench
is a bad thing probably hasn’t watched the sun set from
one in the midst of an elegant garden. With a classic
silhouette and intricate scrollwork, this sophisticated
bench from McKinnon and Harris may just be better than
hitting the game-winning home run. mckinnonharris.com

13GOLD POT OF
Container gardens continue to increase in
popularity, as water becomes more of a
valuable commodity, especially in drought-
prone areas like Southern California. Just
because they’re practical, however, doesn’t
also mean they can’t be fun. Los Angeles-
based designer Kathleen Ferguson suggests
using pots in unexpected shapes, colors and
textures to add interest to your outdoor space.
“Succulents and cacti are my favorite plantings
for container gardens,” she says, “but I love
fitting them with herbs and other edibles, too.
They allow you to truly enjoy your garden
year-round.” kathleenferguson.com

green
revival
A well-done hardscape can unify all the elements in a garden,
which makes it an integral part of the outdoor experience;
however, it can be hard to foster a dreamy, romantic aesthetic
from large expanses of paver or limestone. Integrating some
lush groundcover, like thyme or dichondra, between the stones,
as the Lambert Landscape Company did for this pretty Dallas
home, can completely transform the space. lamberts.net

wrITTEn and produCEd by miranda agee

It’s early in the morning in East Hampton, and the scene reads like the
opening of a poem: birds chirping, sun shining, the scent of freshly mowed
grass is in the air. Charlotte Moss, stepping off her back terrace with a
cup of coffee in hand, beelines it to her favorite spot in her nearly 3-acre
garden—the fountain. “That’s where you can find me most often,” says
Moss. “It’s in a large area and I like to sit there and take in the quiet. It
can be quite magical.”
For her latest tome, Garden Inspirations, focusing on the garden
seemed like the natural thing to do, Moss says. Taking many of the
featured photographs herself, the pages are lined with images of her
beloved rose garden; original, hand-drawn plans that evolved throughout
the decades and espalier-style walkways inspired by her travels. “The
way the French have coaxed trees into doing whatever they want is
incredible,” she says. “To me, that’s the architecture of the garden.”

back garden. Amongst espalier-style hedges, a stone

fountain creates a calming sanctuary. Opposite: The
lush gardens of Moss’ East Hampton home.

Though now a veritable garden maestro, Moss was

charting new territory when she and her husband purchased
their estate 27 years ago, as the landscaping required the
most work. Trees needed to be planted, flower beds installed
and an edible garden, which had to be conveniently located
for easy access for snipping herbs, took priority. Moss admits
that, “Planning the type of outdoor space I wanted was
completely out of my realm of knowledge.” So she enlisted
the help of Lisa Stamm and Dale Booher from Homestead
Garden Design to guide and shape the space. In the end,
she says, they taught her everything she knows about garden
design and they have been collaborating ever since.
Although Moss realizes that not everyone has a garden,
she holds true to the idea that the creation of the book was
to inspire people on a number of different levels. The way
she looks at it is simple: “When I’m in the Hamptons, what I
see out of every window is just as important as the room I am
sitting in itself.” For Moss, the garden is the great equalizer.

The already beloved Bridgehampton Inn & Restaurant has gotten a new neighbor, and
even more reasons to visit. Another local darling, Loaves & Fishes Cookshop, has
moved next door to the Inn in its yearlong renovation and expansion, which included
a two-story addition, a second-floor seating area for guests, six additional rooms and
daily lunch offerings from the fine dining restaurant opened last June. As before, you’ll
find all of owners Sybille van Kempen and Anna Pump’s favorite items in the shop for
entertaining and cooking, kitchen necessities and home accessories, as well as live

RAISE YOUR
GLASS
The rosé shortage of 2014 was a slump in the summer
season that left some East Enders in a variable state of
bottle-shock. This year, local vineyards have prepared for
the inevitable rush to stockpile summer’s signature drink—
and Sagaponack’s Wölffer Estate Vineyard has taken note.
Last month, the Hamptons’ most popular winery not only
released 822 cases (32 percent more than last year) of their
high-end white label, Grandioso Rosé, but also debuted an
updated label design of the winemakers’ highly coveted
varietal. Hamptons native and co-owner of the vineyard Joey
Wölffer felt that the old label was not a true representation of
the brand today. Now—drawing inspiration from the free-
spirited and rugged Hamptons of her youth—Wölffer’s new
label is a chic moniker that represents the true elegance of
the upper crust of Long Island wine coupled with Joey’s
natural, Bohemian aesthetic. 139 Sagg Road, Sagaponack;

You’ve been living and working in the
Hamptons full-time for the past decade.
Did your love of the East End inspire this
collection? Yes, it had a major influence.
Outdoor and performance fabrics serve a real
need for active lifestyles, and the one greatest
thing about being in the Hamptons is the
natural beauty of the landscape. I like to
spend as much time as I can outdoors so it
was an easy direction to follow.
Tell us more about the collection? There are
five different patterns ranging from wovens to
prints. We decided to add a denim textile, as
well, as we felt it was timeless and indigo has
always been a favorite of mine. Overall, I am
extremely influenced by Japanese textiles, the
weaving and the dying processes are like no
other. I also took some cues from a wallpaper
in my line that includes a batik rendition of
turtles and a simple hand-blocked-inspired
scheme called Sarong Weave; that’s my
personal favorite.

What do you love most about that print
in particular? The timeless quality of it,
especially in the Sea Salt colorway. It feels
perfectly worn in from wear.
All the fabrics in the collection seem to have
that sense, almost this artisanal quality.
Handmade has always been close to my heart
and something I look toward as a continuum—
there is nothing that replaces the craft of
making something out of nothing. We tried
to get as much of the handmade feeling as
possible in the collection so that it ties in with
the artistic hand that we are known for.
With all of your collaborations, how do you
continue to find inspiration to keep your
designs fresh? I travel extensively and my
inspiration stems from that. Sometimes, in an
old painting or antique rug, there is a beauty
so great that it is impossible to duplicate. I love
that moment when you realize something is
really extraordinary.

Muriel Brandolini’s first pop-up store, Life by Muriel Brandolini, is an

international marketplace filled with finds from the designer’s travels,
collections from close friends and her own global-inspired line.
“I think many people turn to design as a form of escape,” says
Brandolini. “When someone comes into the store, I want them to feel
a sense of discovery.” To encapsulate her signature multicultural and
vibrant aesthetic, Brandolini curated everything in the shop herself.
“I thought long and hard about what I am always searching for—
especially in the summertime,” she says of the process that
eventually led to her designing some of her most coveted pieces.
“There is handblown glass and gilded lanterns and I am excited
to introduce my first line of metallic bathing suits and sandals

Where does everyone want to be this season?
New Yorkers want to be closer to the city so they
are flocking to Southampton. Sometimes, they do
want more of a rural retreat with horse farms and
apple orchards, so they look more in Sagaponack
and parts of Bridgehampton. What kind of property
is the most hard to come by? Waterfront and close
to the ocean are always the number-one sellers
but 2-acre-plus homes are getting harder to find
lately. People want space, and even though a lot of
them have penthouse gardens in the city, it’s not the
same as having a big yard. How do the individual
villages reflect the homebuyers’ personalities?
East Hampton is where you’ll find older money with
more formal, gated and hedged estates. Sagaponack
is much more country and rural. Bridgehampton is
horse farms and apple orchards. Amagansett, on the
other hand, is still a little country and more of what
the Hamptons used to be like: you can walk to the
beach and to town, and it has more of a local flair.

Daniel Lane, Sagaponack, which sold for $11 million.
It came on the market and sold within 30 days. Most
over-the-top home you’ve sold? An upside-down

with views of the Atlantic and Georgica Pond. I
first sold it in 2009 and again in 2014. The second
time around the seller had outfitted the new home
theater with a half-a-million-dollar speaker system.
The house sold without the speakers, but one buyer
was adamant that they stay—which killed the deal.
My seller was not parting with his AV equipment!
Real estate in the Hamptons is… Rewriting history.
It’s all about size, value and a need-to-know-
right-now mentality. Best value for an oceanfront
property? The Montauk oceanfront is hot, as it has
the secret of being on the water for less than $10
million. It’s not a secret anymore, though, and the
price doubles two miles to the west and stays that
way until you exit Southampton.

Where are the new-money mansions? Having
something along the ocean is big for new-money
Wall Street types. It’s the kind of property that
goes for $30-$40 million before they even
start to build. Alternatively, sometimes they are
spending that amount on a more dated home
and then doing millions of dollars in renovations.
Where are buyers coming from this season?
Besides New York City, I have more buyers than
ever coming from California and Connecticut.
Biggest sale on the East End? A 1920s
traditional brick home in Southampton for $75
million. It is extremely rare to have a brick home
on the ocean and only a few were ever built in
the Hamptons. It went through many renovations
throughout the years but it is still a very special
house. How do you think architecture has
evolved in the Hamptons? It’s all about the view
and finding that perfect balance between indoor
and outdoor living. Buyers want open floor plans
because, even if they are spending upwards of
ten million dollars on a home, they want it to look
like they have a much more casual, easy lifestyle.
24 HARALD
GRANT
Sotheby’s
Curb appeal or big-name architect? Right now,
people are buying for architecture, and most of
them want that modern look. It’s a real escape for
them and it’s about having something different
than their home in the city. Where do new buyers
want to be? It depends, but I do my best to show
them two or three homes in each hamlet. People
will tell you they are looking for a traditional
Shingle-style home and the next thing you know,
they’re in contract for a modern. Biggest sale on
the East End? It was Wooldon Manor on Gin Lane,
and it sold for $85 million. What are the top three
demands buyers are looking for in their homes
today? I’ll give you two: location and value. For
the location, it really is all about the views. For
value, it’s financial versus emotional. More times
than not, it’s not always about the investment, but
about seeing your family in that space.

old Larsen, an East Hampton fixture since 1952. “I was so keen to please them and

Shop in Southampton.

LINDA SCOTT
Artist
Since 1991, Stargazer, the bright red 50-foot-tall sculpture
depicting a deer looking skyward, has presided over a
Manorville field, serving as the unofficial gateway to the
Hamptons. Years ago, its creator, Southamptonite Linda
Scott, traveled with Mexican archaeologist Victor Segovia
to the pyramids of the Yucatán and realized, “All those
cities represented the celestial relationship; it’s where the
Mayans got their information.” Her life pursuing mystical work,
particularly writings of influential spiritual teacher G.I. Gurdjieff,
spawned an entire series of Stargazers around the world.
Scott has also recently partnered with jeweler Eric Messin
to turn her revered works into wearable art pieces (shown
at right). “Metaphysically speaking, we—nature, you, me,
everything—are the connection to the above from below,” she
says. “That’s what the Stargazer symbolizes.” lindascott.org

Jeff Muhs’ interest in varied art forms is clear from
his ultimate party guest list: visual artist Gerhard
Richter, modernist furniture designer Edward
Wormley, sculptor Robert Morris, architect Zaha
Hadid and textile designer Jack Lenor Larsen.
He’s practiced several of these forms himself
yet doesn’t distinguish between them. “I see my
furniture as sculpture,” he explains of his limited-
edition, handcrafted Emirate collection. “When I
began designing this line, I went to Dubai, where
the architecture is anything but rectangular mass
forms. It’s playful, which you can say about 1950s
modern, too.” The birch-plywood-and-laminate
pieces are inspired by midcentury antecedents—
Jean Arp, George Nelson, Hans Wegner—but
reimagined in muscular, high-tech silhouettes.

After art studies at Pratt, Paul Vogel wanted to see

he recalls, “I was feeling a need to do something with
my hands.” He satiated that hunger by apprenticing
at bookbinderies in England and found his calling.
Though the craft is now a dying breed, Vogel keeps
the art form alive out of his East Hampton home. Using
buttery leathers, cotton rag paper and any bespoke
details commissioned by his clients—which have
included such high-profile names as Ralph Lauren and
Charlotte Moss—Vogel creates books completely by
hand using 300-year-old techniques. “Bookbinding Paul Vogel’s creations vary

COTTAGE THAT IS BOTH

258 / luxe interiors + design
This home has quite the history.
Architect Alfred A. Scheffer’s main
patron, Ella Barbour, commissioned
this cottage in the 1940s. It truly
exemplifies Scheffer’s architectural
style from that time period and area
of the Hamptons. The architecture
is clean and simple with small, well-
proportioned rooms and beautiful
materials such as knotty pine plank
floors and exposed brick. The entire
first floor features exposed beams
revealing the floorboards of the
second floor. The idea for my design
was to highlight these simple details
and not to overpower them.

INTERIORS COME TO LIFE AS
DESIGNERS SHARE THE FEATuRES
BEHIND THEIR SuBLIME SPACES.
How exactly did you call out these
subtle details in your design?
The home is located in such a special
area—think swimsuit-clad parents
toting their sandy kids around in red
Radio Flyer wagons—and I sought to
imbue the house with that same spirit.
I wanted the home to be beach-chic
while still casual and low-maintenance.
Everything in the home represents
all of my personal inclinations: lots
of white and natural textures, such
as rattan and abaca, layered with
interesting pieces. The overall effect
is calm and relaxing, which is exactly
what you want when at the beach.

What are your tips for creating
such an easy-going and laid-
back space?
Sun rooms are naturally inviting
because of the light streaming
in and this one is especially
sunny thanks to windows on
three sides of the room. I used a
thick, cushy flokati rug to warm
up the brick flooring and chose
a versatile hair-on-hide ottoman
that can also be used as a coffee
table, footrest or as additional
seating. All of these elements
create the perfect place for a
small gathering.

spark a coastal spirit in
this family-friendly kitchen.

You stripped this dated space of its existing

beadboard cabinetry and dark-paneled ceiling.
What was the jumping-off point?
the existing space had more of a ski-chalet feel
and we wanted it to better reflect the surrounding
beach dunes of its true Westhampton setting.
We freshened it up with a lighter paint color and
countertops and chose a soft sandy-gray stain for
the ceiling reminiscent of driftwood. keeping with
the natural, beach feel of the home, the goal was
to imagine as if the owner was walking down the
beach, discovering different elements to pick up:
a rusty nail, symbolized in the hardware; sandy
toes, illustrated on the linen-covered stools; and
a collection of seashells, reimagined through the
marble slabs.

What drew you to this particular marble?

We were walking the marble yard trying to
find the perfect piece and hidden high up on a
shelf was this small, dusty chunk of marble that
spawned the entire kitchen. We had originally
planned on a glass-tile backsplash, but once we
caught sight of the big slabs weeks later, we knew
we had to continue it up the back wall, as well.
the deep veining is so funky and wild, perfectly
capturing the beach colors and the way that the
ocean leaves markings in the sand at low tide.

How did the cabinetry and hardware choices

fit into the design?
the shaker-style cabinetry is so beautiful in its
simplicity. it was the perfect balance to the room’s
marble and rustic, oversize pendants. We exposed

the butt hinge in an oil-rubbed bronze, but then

added a modern angled cutter profile to keep
the cabinets current. We then chose to panel the
appliances so as to not break up the beautiful
woodwork and to make the kitchen feel more like
a furniture piece. tying into the deep veining of
the marble, the hardware also gives a nice weight interior design / sharla shofi seton / sss design & interiors / sssdesigninteriors.net. interior design / diana byrne / db design /

What inspired such a bright color in this

living room?
After a few meetings, we discovered that
our client loved the bold use of color
and wanted a dramatic statement in the
main entertaining space of the home.
Once we realized that, we committed to
a vivid color scheme that set the tone
for the entire project. We chose a vibrant
marine blue, offsetting it with crisp white
and silver elements. Most people would
have designed a more serious room in
this formal space, but because our client
was open to taking a more unexpected
approach, she ended up with a room that
became a real conversation piece.

Why did you decide to keep the

furnishings simplistic?
Less is definitely more here and
overcrowding was never the approach.
The client preferred to let the blue be
the star and to keep the accents to a
minimum. The large scale of the room
called for something to help envelope
the furnishings and create a sharp and
tailored contrast, and the crisp paneling
was designed in a clean and transitional
way to complement the space. Individual
pieces are still able to hold your attention,
showcasing a true appreciation for the
artistry behind each decorative item.

This space radiates with a look that is

quintessentially Hamptons.
Blue-and-white is a classic color
combination you’ll find throughout the
Hamptons. In this case, however, we
wanted to put our own spin on it, giving the

balance of glamour and comfort?

Green seems to be your color muse
here. Why that particular hue?
My muse was the picturesque
gardens of Stourhead in England. The
vegetation and architectural elements
there conspire to make this magical
place, and I sought to bring that same
magical feel indoors. I designed this
space for the young family to be airy,
bright and approachable, furnishing
the room in colorful purples to play
off of the green. The client was so
inspired that she selected the artwork
to complement the hues of the room.
I chose the vintage Silvano Pantani
grape table lamps as a reference to
the vineyard fields of Long Island.

Did any happy accidents happen
during the design of this room?
I wanted the space to have
a commonality of materials,
which you’ll notice through the
prevelance of brass. One of the
most striking brass pieces has
quite the story. The clients had
originally hired me to design their
apartment in the city, and I had
found these fabulous tessellated
cream tables accented with brass
inlay. They had to be purchased
as a pair, even though at the time,
the clients only needed one. Two
years later, the other table finally
found its home here.

There is something to be
said about a no-fuss affair:
The fine china can stay in the
cupboard, silverware doesn’t
have to be polished and the
linens need not be pressed.
With that level of ease, it’s easy to see why in
recent years, there has been an emphasis on
a more casual way of dining—think family-style
dishes and bench seating. This summer, give
your go-to formal tableau the night off and set
the table with an edgy mix of vintage staples
and raw wood accessories, like a carved
salvaged-wood salt cellar from Homenature
coupled with hand-dyed linens from Silk &
Willow in upstate New York. New classics such
as imported porcelain espresso cups made by
artisans in Italy and effortless Astier de Villatte
plates—picked up at Bloom in Sag Harbor—
create just the right amount of je ne sais quoi
when peppered with antique stunners (like a
fish-eye bottle opener). Sit back, relax and revel
in the fact that fretting over your next tablescape
is a thing of the past.

ith spectacular natural vistas, cool
breezes and the entrancing sound
of crashing waves, the Atlantic coast
is an alluring location for a weekend
getaway. So when a Manhattan couple
with a young son found a unique property located on
Mecox Bay in the Hamptons, they decided to build just
such a retreat. The result is a three-level steel-and-concrete
structure clad with western red cedar siding that will
weather over time like a piece of driftwood. “The cedar will
ultimately end up matching the boardwalk and the deck on
the side of the pool,” explains architect Viola Rouhani. “The
goal is for the building to really recede and allow nature to
be the star of the show.”
To prepare the sandy lot for construction, contractor
Joe Lynch demolished the original home that once stood
on the site and created a stable foundation for the new
one by driving 75 wood pilings 40 feet into the ground.
“There was an enormous amount of engineering required
to make the foundation work,” Lynch says. The modern
structure has two volumes: one for the public spaces, and
the other for more intimate spaces. A central core housing
the main staircase links them and frames an ocean view
that is visible from the large expanse of glass at the front
entrance. “It was very important to us that there be an
indication as you approach the house that there is this
beautiful landscape on the other side,” Rouhani explains.
Indeed, Rouhani’s design features floor-to-ceiling
windows facing the bay to the west and curated views of
the ocean to the east. To maintain the minimalistic look
her clients’ envisioned, the architect eschewed draperies
in favor of shades that are concealed in the ceiling and
wood screens on the exterior. “The architectural screening
creates beautiful shadow patterns in the space,” says
interior designer Eleanor Donnelly, who selected finishes
and designed many of the home’s furnishings. In the open
 Opposite: The home’s cedar siding has been laid out in horizontal and vertical orientations for both aesthetics and

a screen that conceals an outdoor shower, storage and other utilitarian functions on the lower level. The anodized-
aluminum door and window system is by Arcadia.

kitchen, for example, Donnelly incorporated custom built-in
white Formica cabinetry that conceals a bar, additional
refrigeration and storage. “It’s an industrial finish that
holds up to family life and entertaining,” Donnelly explains.
“Everything kind of happens in one large space, so we
needed to house a lot of the clutter and mess of everyday
life behind doors.”
The gleaming white built-in complements the custom
kitchen cabinetry, which is made of a wood veneer that
resembles driftwood. The open space also includes areas
for dining and conversation in front of a bluestone-clad
fireplace, which echoes the soothing palette of blue-
green hues that can be found throughout the house. “Viola
and I believe in a minimal palette, functional spaces and

honesty in materials,” Donnelly says. “We tried to repeat
the materials and color throughout, so that the design
is cohesive and you have one experience versus many
different moments that are collected together.”
Custom shelving continues in the third-floor hallway, this
time made of walnut. The material reappears in the live-
edge dining table in the great room and custom cabinetry in
a casual den on the top floor, which has a screened-in porch
overlooking the bay. The view from that space is Rouhani’s
favorite thing about the modern abode. “It gives the sense
of being on your own perch elevated above the water with
views in all directions,” she explains. “We hoped to recreate
the quintessential beach house that brings the outdoors in
and the indoors out, and I think we accomplished that.”

LaGuardia created a plan to replace

hen you’re Iris Dankner, you don’t just
entertain; you entertain in multitudes.
In fact, the New York socialite,
designer, breast cancer survivor and
highly visible fundraising dynamo (she
almost doubled revenues for the Susan G. Komen foundation
and founded Holiday House to raise money and awareness
about the disease) is most comfortable in a crowd.
So when Dankner went looking for a Southampton
getaway 10 years ago, she knew she wanted a gracious
yet sizeable home that could accommodate large gatherings.
“I always loved Farrell homes,” she says of the construction
company helmed by Joe Farrell, whose highly detailed
custom residences are fixtures of the region. Unfortunatly,
the one she fell in love with—a white-trimmed Shingle-style
home with generous public spaces and an open flow—got
away. But, as she recalls, “He had another property nearby
where he was planning to build a similar home.” With the
location being just minutes away from Little Peconic Bay,
Dankner instead purchased that property and, with the help
of architects James McDonough and Michael Conroy, “was
able to make a few changes to the existing plan,” she says.
The most substantial modification, remembers builder
Steve Pryzby, Farrell’s vice president who took over the
build once Dankner purchased the home, was “a master
bedroom deck that extended much further out than was
planned. We had to structuralize the columns by adding
steel and footings.” A happy accident created a generous
loggia by the pool for lounging.
The interior boasts signature Farrell details, such as
coffered ceilings and a two-story foyer that has a view
straight out to the backyard and pool, which provides,
says Pryzby, “that wow effect.” For Dankner, it is the
moodsetter she wanted. “You step in and you feel like
you’re away,” she observes.
An inveterate traveler, Dankner is often away herself,
and almost every year she alters the décor, sometimes
radically, after each trip. For the master bath, she hauled
a 19th-century French mirror from Paris’ Marché aux Puces
across the ocean, while Guatemalan fabrics and a folk art
giraffe infuse her daughter Niki’s red bedroom with ethnic
flair. The family refers to the loggia under the master deck
as “Belize,” because artifacts from a trip there decorate
the table and landscape designer Tom Janczur’s potted
plantings of elephant ears give it an exotic aspect.

ic and Dena Hammel weren’t in the market
for a new home. That is until they discovered
the perfect house just three doors away on
desirable Mecox Road. The Pennsylvania
couple, who have made Bridgehampton
their second home for nearly two decades, had recently
met with designers on maximizing space in their current
residence to accommodate visiting adult children and
six grandchildren when they noticed a new construction
nearby. “We were already in our dream house, and I never
felt like we needed anything more,” recalls Dena of
her traditional Shingle-style home she had decorated
with country antiques. “But I just wanted to take a look
inside—I guess that’s what all women say, I suppose!”
Outfitted with fine oak finishes, an open floor plan
free of hallways and a traditional-meets-modern aesthetic,
Dena recognized that the house was the embodiment of
her own minimalist sensibilities: “It took my breath away,”
she says. “It was so unusual and understated, down to
the magnificent 100-year-old chestnut tree out front.” In a
particularly felicitous turn, a For Sale sign soon went up, Architect James Merrell conceived
of the minimal barn-style house with
and the owners quickly purchased the house, which was nods to both historical Hamptons and
conceived in a collaborative effort by architect James a Belgian sensibility, seen through
Merrell and builder Peter Cardel. “I envisioned it as a the shingled exterior and the main

visionary who joined the team on the basis that they create
something different from the archetypal Hamptons home.
Originally, a circa-1800 farmhouse stood on the
property. “It was not a substantial house; it was more like
a farmhand’s home,” says Cardel of the structure the team
removed to build anew. But the team envisioned a home
that would keep that history alive, and so, Cardel partnered
with Merrell to bring about the idea of a modern farmhouse
that, in the same way, would stand the test of time.
Within the wide, U-shaped floor plan, the design team
took advantage of the light that floods every room.

and furniture-grade oak paneling, creating a blank canvas
for the Hammels’ longtime designer, Franco Biscardi, and his
partner, architect Brian Brady, to create the serene interiors. “In
the family room, they wanted one nice seating group, so we
scaled up the upholstered pieces to accommodate the deep
space,” says Brady, who fashioned a richly layered design
scheme. Bespoke upholstery and a natural-toned rug underfoot
blend comfortably with standout accents, from vintage iron and
travertine-topped tables to a white plaster chandelier based
on a Giacometti design. The duo also used window treatments
sparingly to further enhance the clean lines of each space.

Of course, picking up on the long-standing beach
house tradition, the heart of the home is the al fresco Cedar shingles and traditional
barn doors define the family’s

his only wish, to have a table that could seat the entire
family,” says Hammel with a smile. And in the end, what
started as a functional farmhouse turned out to be a chic,
simplistic retreat—one that encompasses the ease of
Hamptons living combined with the comfort and harmony
of familial ties.

BROWN HARRIS
STEVENS
Behind the success of Jennifer and Kieran Brew is a familial history
steeped in New York real estate. The Brews moved to Amagansett from
Brooklyn in 2002, where they owned and managed several retail and
apartment spaces, including two restaurants. “The last restaurant was
an interior landmark in Midtown,” Jennifer enthuses. “The history and
architecture of this space (currently operating as the flagship restaurant
for Wolfgang’s Steakhouse) sparked our continuing interest in
architecture and design. Moving to the Hamptons was a natural choice
to continue to be involved in real estate.” Under the auspices of Brown
Harris Stevens, one of the country’s most regarded luxury residential
real estate firms, Jennifer and Kieran have become two of the most
sought-after real estate experts in the Hamptons. The husband-and-
wife team attributes much of their professional development and
market insight to the prestigious 142-year-old company. “Brown Harris
Stevens is a large, venerable firm with strong global connections, but
the owners and managers are accessible to the agents,” Kieran says.
One of the distinguishing factors of the Brews is their commitment to
staying on top of technological advancements in the industry, which
ultimately help market a property and connect buyers to sellers.
Specializing in Hamptons real estate, including Amagansett, Montauk
and East Hampton, Kieran notes the importance of using a broker in
such a unique part of the country. “The real estate agent knows the
nuances of the market, the characteristics of the neighborhood and the
builder or developer of the home,” he says. “Agents don’t simply help
find a home: They provide guidance and expert knowledge through the
entire process.”

or Tod and Bonnie Greenfield, commissioning a
home designed specifically for them and their
two teenage daughters just made sense. After all,
Tod runs the family company, Martin Greenfield
Clothiers, which for decades has been tailoring
bespoke suits for U.S. presidents, pop stars and hit cable
television shows. So when the couple decided they wanted
a home that would need less maintenance than their
aging 1960s-era split-level in Old Westbury, they called on
architect Stuart Narofsky to build anew. “The original house
needed a lot of repair work, and so we chose to start from
scratch instead of renovating what we had,” Tod explains,
noting that the original abode’s wooden shingles needed
to be scraped and painted regularly. “We couldn’t find any
place that we liked better than our special piece of land, so
we opted to just knock our house down and start over.”
The result is a modernist concrete home clad with
reclaimed wood milled from black locust trees that
grew on the site before being felled during Hurricane
Irene. “Right from the beginning, Stuart was interested in
creating a kind of pathway that wound around a central
courtyard with a series of almost pavilion-like rooms
that were building up as they spiraled around,” explains
architect John DeFazio, who assisted during the initial
planning stages. In fact, the J-shaped home literally
straddles a dip in the landscape, allowing the lawn to
pass underneath the building. “The landscape actually
moves through the house,” explains Narofsky, whose
firm handled not only the architectural plans but also the
construction and interior design.
According to structural engineer Nat Oppenheimer, of
Silman, using concrete to build a home is more complicated
than using it in more typical commercial designs. “The
column grid and layout were predicated almost entirely on
walls and partitions inside the house rather than the usual,
simpler structural grid,” he explains. “Because of this, we
had to be very conscious of the size, layout and profile of
the concrete.” To minimize the impact of the construction

on the land, landscape architect Jeff Dragan transplanted
many of the plant material, including English oak, Japanese
umbrella pine and Colorado blue spruce trees, as well as
a variety of shrubs, to a temporary nursery. “We moved the
material and then put it back after construction,” Dragan
explains. “The house didn’t need a lot of foundation
planting or accents.”
Indeed, because nearly every room has direct access
appearance, or he covered it with custom MDF panels
that had been screwed onto oak framing. “We expressed
the oak framing rather than hiding it,” Narofsky notes. “It
became a real arts-and-crafts endeavor.”
In fact, nearly every railing, bench and vanity in the
home was built using wood salvaged from the property.
“We had to figure out what we had to work with and
how to implement that in the house as we went along,

elements, which come either from the deep recesses

To contrast the reclaimed wood, mottled concrete
and other organic elements, the designers took special
care to create other, more decorated areas. “We tried to

for example, sleek counter surfaces—white Corian for the
island and stainless steel for the perimeter—complement
contemporary cabinetry from Eggersmann. “We felt that
the kitchen should be this sort of glamorous, smooth and
seamless millwork masterpiece,” Rusch adds.
The living room was furnished with oversize sofas that
were designed to resemble large boulders coming out
of the ground. “We upholstered them in raw cut buffalo
hide and let the natural cuts define where the seams
were going to be,” Hermann explains. “While they look
very rigid, they are actually very comfortable and seat
a lot of people.”
Narofsky’s favorite spot in the house is a sunken seating
pit surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto
the forested backyard. “You step down into it and you’re
hovering off the corner of the house,” he says, noting that it
was inspired by the iconic 50s-era Eero Saarinen-designed
Miller House in Indiana. A custom bookshelf creates a sense
of separation between the nest and nearby living room.
“I put the nest in the prime viewing spot of the property,” he
says, “and it’s the most wonderful place to sit. Whenever
I visit the house, I’m just in awe.”

T
o us, everything is artwork,” explains
Rebecca Thompson, one half of the team
at the creative brand Petta Thompson. “It’s
all about an environmental encompassing
of space.” Thompson and her business
partner, Rita Petta, agree on many things, but the most
definitive is how their collaborative work embraces
countless influences. By leveraging their knowledge
of interiors, painting, printmaking and restoration, the
pair have created a true artist studio in Connecticut
that, as Petta says, “Just happens to make a lot of
home products.”
For the past eight years, Petta and Thompson
have been crafting sculpture, paintings, decorative
accessories and innovative wallcoverings with a
signature appeal. “We both collaborate together,”
notes Thompson, who has what she says is a deep
history in painting and printmaking. “With Rita’s
experience as an interior designer, we always want
the same thing but look at it in two different ways.
That’s what makes our work so successful.”
With three printing presses—a small lithography and
etching press that they use only in pre-production, a
larger lithography press and a sizeable Takach press
customized to accommodate bespoke wallcoverings—
each wall tile is made in-house with tangible materials
like block prints and hand-carved plates. “We want
people to be involved and inquisitive at what they are
looking at,” says Petta, who refers to their approach as
diversified. Thompson agrees. “When you’re looking at
a wall,” she says, “we want it to grab your attention and
just bring you into that space.”
Having met while studying in Italy during their
college years, the duo instantly connected over a
shared aesthetic of historical elements within art
and design, and from that moment on, worked in
tandem to create their thriving studio. “At the time,
we both had a desire to find ways to be more
creative and the opportunity arose to design and
manufacture wallcoverings and objects for other
designers,” explains Petta. “This led to the natural
progression of creating all of our handmade art
and objects under the Petta Thompson brand.”
Petta and Thompson’s designs are small-scale,
selective and sublime, with their methods thoughtful
and ultra-traditional. Their latest wallcoverings
collection, which was two years in the making, includes
roughly ten styles utilizing just what the two women
love the most: traditional materials and techniques like
embossment, veneer and papyrus. For this collection,
all of the plates were hand-carved by Thompson and
Petta, giving each design a personal touch. And as far
as inspirations go, nature is at the forefront, with the
harsh East Coast winter (now a distant memory) a
springboard for the palettes and techniques. “The
constant thawing and freezing is replicated through the
top coats and finishes,” explains Petta.
A few years shy of a decade working together, the
duo’s process is fluid and sanguine: Think yin and
yang at its finest. While one might instigate a design,
the other will alter or experiment with it, adding yet
another layer to its presence. And this, as they say, is
where the magic happens.

Martocchio and, soon after, the Schwartzes commissioned
her to renovate their master suite. “They were dipping their

has a strong appreciation for what the movement was all
about, which is openness, a connection to the outdoors,
a pared-down aesthetic and interesting materials.”
The Schwartz’s original residence was a 1990s house
built in the Colonial style to fit in with the nearby historical
homes. Because of this, the structure lacked a certain
authenticity and had no modern qualities—things the
couple had come to appreciate and crave. “We had lived in
our house for a little more than ten years,” says David, who
worked on Wall Street and is now a private investor. “We
loved our neighborhood and didn’t want to leave, but we
wanted something different. We wanted something clean
and simple.” At a point when the couple was at the end
Bellefeuille, replaced the cedar shake roof with standing-
seam lead-coated copper. “We gutted the entire house
and kept only the frame, which we then added onto,” says
Bellefeuille. “We took a traditional home and incorporated
numerous modern features.” The team also switched
out double-hung windows for the casement variety and
maintained the stone front façade, but decided to change
the portico to a glass canopy that suspends above the teak
door—a modern move on the architect’s part.
While Martocchio took a less-is-more approach to the
architectural details, she took a more-is-more approach to
the coveted indoor-outdoor connection the Schwartzes
craved. Sited next to a wooded nature preserve, the

property featured an enviable landscape, but as it were,
the house had small windows in all the wrong places.
“Amanda blew out the entire back corner of the house
and added 1,000 square feet to the rear façade,” says
Bellefeuille on how they decided to let in more light.
Martocchio then installed a 12-foot-wide glass door on
the northeast corner to capitalize on the views. “You can
slide the doors into pockets and really remove part of
the house to connect with nature,” she says. Just beyond
the glass, the interior is a modernist oasis that features
an open-plan living space. Two upper-level balconies, a
lower-level screened-in porch, a mudroom and an office
make up the rest of the house’s added space.
To streamline the interiors, Martocchio partnered with
her longtime friend, designer Gary Cruz, who brought in
his innate sense of color to liven up the neutral palette.
“I like to start with rugs and build up from there,” says
Cruz, who designs his own hand-knotted floorcoverings
that are woven in Nepal and sold at his studio in New
York City. The designer customized rugs for each space
in the residence, giving each room a distinct color—such
as a pumpkin border on the rug in the dining room and
a chartreuse edge on the rug in the entry—despite the
open floor plan.
When it came time to choose art, it was important
to both designers that the artwork wasn’t purely for

decoration—there had to be intent. “Amanda and I urged
the Schwartzes to start looking at the work of great
contemporary artists,” says Cruz, an artist in his own right
who received a Pollock-Krasner grant and exhibited work
at White Columns exhibition space and The Drawing
Center museum in Manhattan. The couple had a great
collection of traditional wall hangings but they seemed
out of place in their new, more modern home. So, with
a persuasive bent from both Cruz and Martocchio, they
decided it was time for a more serious art collection. “We
reduced the amount of decorative objects so that the art
we were bringing in was regarded as spectacular and
special,” David says.
The new design expression of the Schwartz’s home now
successfully incorporates the unique, modern heritage of
New Canaan while still highlighting its illustrious traditional
vernacular. By preserving the gabled roof and the stone
façade outside, and then eliminating impractical details
and ornamentation on the inside, harmony prevails
between the old and the new. But what truly stands out
is how the architect created something more fluid and
connected to the outdoors. “With so many houses going
up in the last 20 years that look identical, there’s a greater
appreciation for diversity and innovation,” Martocchio says.
“I always want to create homes that are unique and reflect
the way we live today.”

 One of the signatures in the
design of the home is the
use of oversized lighting.
Here, in the entry hall, interior
designer Kevin Dumais had a
large carriage house lantern,
one of three, crafted by
Remains Lighting in polished
nickel and oil-rubbed bronze
that looks aged.

W
hen interior designer Kevin Dumais
did his initial walk-through with
his clients of their newly built,
Shingle-style Colonial house in
Bridgehampton, what he found was
a place literally built for entertaining. “It would be so
easy to create three individual indoor-outdoor rooms,”
Dumais explains of the living room, kitchen and great
room that open onto a long patio that extends the full
length of the house. “When the doors slide open you
can easily flow in and out.”
The homeowners, who live full-time in the city
and purchased this house as a weekend retreat, were
smitten with the property and envisioned the home
as a place where they could kick back with family and
friends on weekends and holidays. However, there
was a catch: Dumais was hired in March and the family
had a Memorial Day deadline. The owners planned on
having overnight guests by that time, so rudimentary
accommodations had to be in place; after that, a more
leisurely approach could commence. Time was of the
essence, but luckily Dumais was given carte blanche
with the design.
To begin, Dumais approached the design with a
modern eclectic flair that focused around custom furniture,
statement lighting and plenty of vintage panache, which
turned out to be a perfect contrast to the traditional feel
of the architecture. “The house has a layout that can feel
quite formal, so we wanted to contrast that with a casual,
urban sophistication,” says Dumais. “Now, there’s a nice
juxtaposition between the two styles.”
When designing the house, architect William Minnear,
who worked with project manager Jonathan Favaro on the
build, explained that while it may have some of the hallmarks
of tradition, the updated style combines old and new. “The
house has two rooflines which makes it a little different from
the houses more typically found in the Hamptons,” he says.
“The unique roof gives it a more contemporary feel.”
“The layouT can
feel formal,
so we wanTed
To conTrasT
ThaT wiTh a
casual, urban
sophisTicaTion.”
-Kevin dumais
Working from the outside in, Dumais culled the
majority of outdoor furnishings from Restoration
Hardware, choosing pieces made from teak because
they will turn a silvery gray over time. “It’s such a
large space, so we used pieces that have a little bit
of scale and heft to them,” says Dumais. Comfortable
upholstered pieces make each designated outdoor
space feel more like interior rooms.
When the couple bought the house, a pool had
already been installed, but the backyard green space
was otherwise “just vast areas of lawn,” says landscape
designer Matthew Stengel, who oversaw the outdoor
beautification of the home. For privacy, Stengel planted
towering Hinoki cypress trees, screening an area where
the barbecue faces the road. Uniform bluestone pavers
that connect the house to the pool now have grass in
between, creating a modern look, while beds of pink
hydrangea border the terrace.
After the holiday deadline, Dumais could refocus
and put all of his energy on the inside, starting from
scratch with all-new furnishings. “We had this big empty
house to fill,” says Dumais. “So we ended up using a lot
of vintage items. That helped because they’re readily
available and they create an eclectic space.”
Dumais then mixed things up with tailored
upholstered pieces, such as custom sofas in both the
great room and living room, and a pair of 1940s French
iron armchairs he upholstered in a Rogers & Goffigon
linen in the great room. The occasional one-off, like the
tree stump coffee table in the living room the designer
found locally at Mecox Gardens, reflects the couple’s
fun, youthful taste and the casual ease they were
looking for in the design.
Special attention was paid to the living room, kitchen
and great room, since that’s where the couple spends
most of their time. Because these rooms also spill onto
the terrace, Dumais unified the spaces with oversized
lighting. In the great room, a delicate Fontana Arte Avico
dome holds court, while in the kitchen, Dumais chose
two classic globe pendants from Remains Lighting. And,
perhaps hinting toward a life lived near the sea, a large
capiz shell pendant takes center stage in the living room.
“At night, when they are all lit up, they look like lanterns
or beacons,” says Dumais. “They create a really nice
glow, especially when viewed from the outdoors.”
With everything in place, the house is now ready for
every possible entertaining scenario. “The couple is
young and energetic and they truly love to entertain and
be with their friends,” says Dumais. “And even though
we were kind of in a rush to get it finished, the outcome
really works for their lifestyle and personalities.” To
create a layered, elegant home in the Hamptons is a
dream come true for any designer. And for Dumais, it
was only a matter of time.
The dining room features Elizabeth Dow’s gray
backed-linen wallpaper. A vintage chandelier
by Arteluce hangs over a table from Room.
The eclectic living room includes a custom walnut-based sofa from Lost City Arts and a custom tufted stool
crafted by Phoenix Custom Furniture. Carpeting from Mark Nelson Designs runs underfoot.

throughout the rest of the house.

Mecox Gardens. O’Lampia’s Retroline Trio light fixture, in
rubbed bronze and enamel, hangs above the setting.

in the house, the great room’s
sense of comfort and ease is
conveyed through such pieces
as a custom sofa upholstered
in a sturdy linen-cotton blend

in a fabric from Holly Hunt.

FOR THIS YEAR’S DINING BY DESIGN

AIDS). HERE, HE BREAKS DOWN HIS
COMMEMORATIVE VISION.
WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY ARLYN HERNANDEZ
Your design is a quiet, unexpected departure
from the vivacious style you’re known for. Talk us
through your inspiration for the space. When I first
was brainstorming an idea, I thought about all the
amazing people that passed away in the beginning
of the AIDS crisis. To me, the most important thing
to do was make people think: “Why are you here?
What is this benefit for, and who are the people that
were there from the beginning of this industry?”
There’s definitely a pensive mood to your
presentation. I wanted to create a feeling similar
to walking into a museum, where there’s an
immediate hushed tone when you step inside. You
go from the noisy street and into this space, and
there’s an instant level of respect. Your brain twists
and goes into another mode where it’s like, “Ok,
now it’s time to look at and think about something.”
This could have taken on a somber tone, but you
found a way to make it more retrospective. That
was my whole thing, to at least try to bring these
people and what they did back to this generation.
There was architect and designer Alan Buchsbaum,
who invented the idea of the loft and redefined how
people live in New York; and artist Leigh Bowery,
who highly influenced the work of Alexander
McQueen, Vivienne Westwood and even Lady
Gaga. All of these people were so brilliant and
no one ever remembers them. I hope I did them
justice with the portraits I created for the vitrines.
What function does the pavilion at the center
of the Flexform table play? It brought in an
architectural object to the space; it provided a
light source during the dinner; and it displayed
the obituaries of all 19 heroes exactly as they
appeared in The New York Times and The Los
Angeles Times, so when people were looking
at the cases, they could turn around and read
more about everyone depicted. When you do

something like this, you want it to touch people
in whatever manner—happy, sad, educate them,
make them think about something in a different
way. That’s my reason for doing all of this.
