A Social Summer
Summer entertaining at home can be a delightful and memorable experience, blending the joys of warm weather and good company in a relaxed atmosphere. In this issue, we have a few stories focused on the topic. Whether you’re hosting a casual backyard barbecue, an elegant garden party or an intimate dinner on the patio, there are numerous ways to ensure your gatherings are both enjoyable and stress-free. ■ First, consider the ambiance. Summer’s natural beauty makes it a no-brainer for outdoor entertaining. Make the most of your garden, terrace or backyard by decorating with lanterns and candles to create a cozy, inviting atmosphere as the sun sets. Of course, fresh flowers and vibrant table settings can add a touch of elegance and reflect the season’s colors. This year, hydrangeas in the area are blooming with abandon, so your next flower arrangement might come from your own yard! Designer Charlotte Moss shares some of her tips for setting the mood beginning on page 42. ■ When it comes to food and drink, the season provides an abundance of fresh produce available at local farm stands. Grilled meats and local seafood and vegetables can be prepared with minimal fuss, and a simple salad is always a winning idea. ■ Drinks are another crucial element. For those who enjoy cocktails, consider serving classic summer drinks like mojitos, margaritas or caipirinhas, or one of the special spirits we feature on page 82. Setting up a self-serve bar allows guests to help themselves and takes some pressure off the host. ■ Entertainment is also key to keeping the mood lively. A well-curated playlist can enhance the atmosphere, so consider creating one ahead of time or using a music streaming service to set the tone. If you have the space and equipment, an outdoor movie night or lawn games can be fun ways to entertain guests as the evening cools down. Case in point: Designer Mark Cunningham incorporated a very chic outdoor ping-pong table at his client’s home—see “Game Changer,” beginning on page 72. ■ Also, don’t forget about comfort. Provide shade options like umbrellas or canopies to protect guests from the sun, and have bug repellent on hand. ■ Finally, summer entertaining at home is all about creating a relaxed, welcoming environment where guests can feel at ease. With a bit of planning and attention to detail, you can host memorable gatherings that capture the essence of summer with a carefree spirit. Cheers!

Horsing Around
Since 2010, HC&G has been a proud sponsor of the hampton classic, a premier show jumping event in the United States. This illustrious Grand Prix, steeped in history dating back to the 1900s in Southampton, has persevered through world wars and various interruptions. Today, it continues to flourish on Snake Hollow Road in Bridgehampton, drawing spectators and participants alike to its vibrant arena.
■ The Hampton Classic offers a spectacle that extends far beyond the equestrian competitions. It has become a social highlight of the season, where the expansion to two VIP tents speaks volumes about its popularity. Here, HC&G plays a pivotal role by hosting and judging the best-dressed tables—an event that is anything but amateur in its execution.
■ Under the expert eye of Editor in Chief Clinton Smith, the contest for the most spectacularly decorated tables unfolds, with prizes awarded across several categories. This not only enhances the excitement, but also provides multiple opportunities for attendees to engage and emerge victorious in their creative endeavors.
■ Our own table, recused from the contest, will be dressed by the acclaimed showroom West | Out East, founded by West Chin. With locations in East Hampton, Miami, New York and Westport, the team is set to work their design magic, promising an exquisite presentation that embodies the spirit of the Classic. ■ For more information, go to cottagesgardens.com/events/signature-events/hampton-classic/.

FARM FRESH
Free-form floral arrangements have made May Zegarelli’s Ocean Fog Farm one of the area’s most in-demand sources for fresh flowers.
Floral arranger May Zegarelli’s day starts early at Ocean Fog Farm in Eastport. Wandering through raised beds and meticulously designed, home-grown flower fields with clippers, she harvests veronica, snapdragons and lavender blue scabiosa blooms with the focus of an experienced gardener. “We have a lot of scabiosa this year,” she says of the flower also known as a pincushion, due to its spiky, ball shape. “We plan on using it in our C.S.A. [community supported agriculture] program, and for our wholesale accounts.”
Zegarelli and her husband, Tommy, moved to the hamlet of Eastport in 2016, looking to grow their family. “When we discovered our house in Eastport, it immediately felt like home,” she recounts. “We knew we wanted to make it into a small farm and thought about turning my passion for growing flowers into a business.” After months of renovations that included Tommy sourcing local farm equipment, installing posts and building all the raised beds, the couple found inspiration for the business name from nature and their proximity to the Atlantic Ocean fog that sometimes rolls into the flower fields. “Since then, we have loved expanding on the branding of Ocean Fog Farm and the beautiful contrast that flowers can bring to a cloudy, foggy day,” says Zegarelli.
After a busy morning of harvesting, freshly cut flowers are placed into buckets of water and into a cooler so that they can drink. “We want to make sure they’re completely hydrated and happy before we start making arrangements,” explains Zegarelli, a tip she picked up gardening as a child with her grandfather. Using a handheld technique, Zegarelli quickly gathers flowers of contrasting colors and textures to create lovely seasonal bouquets wrapped in brown craft paper and twine. “The idea of the grab-and-go bouquet concept started at the Eastport General Store here in town,” says Zegarelli,
“then I had a friendship base that inspired me to strive for more.” That friendly push has now made Ocean Fog Farm a sought-after florist both for weddings, as well as supplying seasonal cuttings to wellness properties such as Shou Sugi Ban House in Water Mill and Wolffer Estate in Sagaponack. Considering environmentally friendly practices is equally crucial to Zegarelli’s free-form floral arrangements, such as using Holly Chapple pillows (placed in a container to allow airy designs with height, cascade and width), chicken wire or tape. “We took a pledge to use no floral foam,” reiterates Zegarelli, “so we find other alternatives to make sure that all of our designs are somewhat of a sustainable practice.”
Applying proper growing techniques, such as succession planting, allowing for continuous blooms and experimenting with overwintering dahlias, Zegarelli still finds inspiration foraging in the fields, evident in the charming flower stand at
the entrance to Ocean Fog Farm. “Eastport has generations of farmers, and we want to continue that tradition with our seasonally inspired bouquets. It’s amazing to take every single season and embrace it.” oceanfogfarm.com —Doug Young

It’s amazing to take every single season and embrace it.

Wild Thing
Take your garden back to a simpler time
Wilding—letting your property go back to nature—has caught on like wildfire in Europe. Even on the main avenue of the Chelsea Flower Show, designers have slipped in dandelions to make the point. Now you may not want to go that far—although the dandelion’s nectar-rich flowers are an early food source for bees—but planting more natives, allowing a bit of mess, and encouraging biodiversity will help your garden improve our local ecosystems. — Alejandro Saralegui
HC&G: For wilding, do you need a deer fence or not?
TONY PIAZZA, FOUNDER, PIAZZA HORTICULTURAL: If you want color from flowers, definitively use a deer fence. Without deer fencing, you are limited to native grasses as the deer eat most of the phorbs, or flowering plants. Two native phorbs that they don’t eat are monardas and Pycnanthemums (mountain mint).
Field of Dreams Clover grows happily and captures nitrogen for a healthy lawn in a Bridgehampton property designed by Piazza Horticultural. (inset) Mountain Mint, a flowering, deer-resistant native plant.
Meadow Making (clockwise from top) Digitalis purpurea (foxglove), although non-native, is a Tony Piazza favorite. Panicum virgata (switchgrass) is a perennial grass that turns bright yellow in the autumn, and Schizachyrium scoparium (little bluestem) is great for creating a bird-friendly habitat.

Garden Against
What are the three best starter plants for an East end rewilding?
T.P.: Little blue stem, panicum and Eragrostis are three local grasses that thrive on the East End.
Can you just let the grass grow and not mow it?
T.P.: Yes, of course. We are often pleasantly surprised that some of the grasses we are mowing are natives. Also, once we stop mowing, the dormant seed bank of native plants
that are spread by wind, birds and animals will start to emerge over time.
Which is your favorite non-native plant?
T.P.: Digitalis purpurea (foxglove). I seed it into shady areas. I love the drama that the spires create in late spring. After a long East End winter, we all need a little drama in the garden. Be sure to use the straight
species. The newer cultivars sport flowers that face out from the stem rather than the graceful nod of the flowers of the species.
What’s the attitude adjustment necessary to pull this off?
T.P.: Accepting a bit of the wild, and yielding to nature—it can be very liberating.

AN EYE TOWARD CONSERVATION
Much has changed out East since 1983, when John v.H. Halsey created the Peconic Land Trust to protect the areas around his childhood stomping grounds. Since then, in conjunction with landowners, communities, partner organizations, and all levels of government, the Trust has protected 14,000 acres of land throughout Long Island, including working farms, shorelines, watersheds, moraines, woods, and lands sacred to indigenous communities— such as Sugar Loaf Hill, the ancestral burial grounds of the Shinnecock people in Southampton.
Among the Trust’s most recent achievements is the $48 million acquisition of 27 acres of farmland in Bridgehampton that belonged to the Topping family. “Located in the heart of Bridgehampton, this farmland is an integral part of the community’s character,” says Kim Quarty, the Trust’s director of conservation planning. “The farmland not only represents an important resource for our local economy, but it also offers vast, scenic views along Halsey Lane that define the hamlet’s history and identity.” The purchase also highlights one of the innovative
Resort-Style Residence Besides having a billiard’s room, 67 Cross Hwy. in East Hampton also features two massage rooms, a game room, and an 800-bottle wine display wall.
strategies the Trust has developed in response to the increasing complexities of the deal-making involved in conserving properties as East End land becomes scarcer and more valuable. “What made this project possible was not only strong financial support from the community, but also the town’s simultaneous purchase of an agricultural conservation easement using money from its Community Preservation Fund,” says Quarty. According to Halsey, whose family has lived in Southampton for twelve generations, the easement restricts the use of the land only to farming and thereby protects it from other forms of development indefinitely.
Another project in the works is the renovation of the Garden House at Bridge Gardens, a fiveacre gem in Bridgehampton that was donated to the Peconic Land Trust in 2008. “The gardens are a beautiful place to host discussions on a broad range of topics,” says Bridge Gardens director Rick Bogusch, “but it has become clear that a formal year-round public space is needed to accommodate small group meetings and programs both indoors and outdoors.” As such, the Trust recently tapped Oza Sabbeth Architects to transform the Garden House into a multifunctional educational center (they are currently in the fundraising phase). “Community support and private charitable donations are
critical to our mission,” says Halsey. “We’ve been fortunate to have earned the community’s trust and engagement.” —Jean Nayar
COMPOUND INTEREST
As demand remains strong for prime property out East, agents are noticing an uptick in buyers who are in the market for more than one property. “People are definitely thinking in terms of compounds,” says Jack Pearson of Compass. “COVID taught people that they need as much
BEFORE THEY WERE BROKERS:
Chris Ritchey
Little did Compass agent Chris Ritchey know growing up on a horse farm in Maryland that years later he would find himself feeling right at home among the horse farms of the Hamptons. At age 19 he moved to New York City, and—after deciding to not pursue his initial dreams of being on Broadway— became a hair stylist at Bergdorf Goodman’s famed John Barrett Salon. In addition to making appearances on television shows, he served as stylist to the stars while on staff at both The Wendy Williams Show and The Celebrity Apprentice (he counts Holly Robinson Peete, Niki Taylor and Marlee Matlin among his former clients). However, it turned out to be a client from John Barrett Salon—Compass broker Cindy Scholz—who ended up changing the course of his life 13 years ago. “I was thinking about making a change, and Cindy had always encouraged me to get my license,” says Ritchey, who worked in the city until six years ago, when he moved to the Hamptons full-time. “I was surprised how many of my hair clients ended up trusting me to be their agent. In fact, my first big deal was for someone I met through The Celebrity Apprentice. As a stylist, you meet a lot of different personalities, often acting as a therapist of sorts. I find that it’s the same in real estate. The one thing you can’t teach is the ability to deal with people.” —A. B.

space as possible, especially if they want to group family members in one safe haven while still maintaining their individual privacy.”
Given the current popularity of living in a village, where historic homes are usually smaller, some buyers are purchasing multiple properties to accommodate more expansive needs, including housing for guests and staff. “We have neighbors in Sag Harbor who purchased three properties,” says Douglas Elliman Real Estate’s Noble Black. “One they use as the main house, another as a guest house, and a third as a pool house.” These additional properties might be adjacent if possible, but some homeowners settle for a nearby location. “People who own more than one home have various profiles, so they get what’s workable for their needs and income levels,” Black continues. “And some who use the extra home for extended family and friends during the season rent it out during the off season. Others will buy a separate house to use as a workspace.”
“The concept lends itself well to the tight properties you find in villages,” concurs Pearson. “But owners of big residences are also interested in the idea of owning more than one property. One client bought a substantial property in Sagaponack, and when an adjacent reserve later came up for sale he bought that, too, to keep as-is and preserve his view.” Black notes that other owners purchase adjacent vacant lots toward similar ends. “Some owners want a neighboring lot in the event they’d like to expand their existing dwelling in the future, and others simply want to control what can be built on it,” he says. For those who can swing it, it’s an efficient way to take charge of what happens in their own back yard. —J. N.

At her East Hampton home, Boxwood Terrace, Designer Charlotte Moss sets a stylish summer table in the great outdoors.
BY CLINTON SMITH | PHOTOGRAPHS BY TREVOR PARKER
Charlotte Moss knows how to throw a party. In fact, the designer has authored more than ten books on style, flowers, and yes, one 288page edition dedicated entirely to entertaining at home with elegance, ease and elan.
With all of her experience, Moss remains acutely aware that hosting guests, whether it be two or twenty, can sometimes be an intimidating proposition. She advises that practice makes perfect—and, if not perfection, practice certainly builds confidence.
“It’s like riding a bike,” she says of hosting others with regularity. “You get in a rhythm, and it starts to come naturally. It doesn’t become a big event. It just becomes dinner with friends.”
And at this time of year, Moss is in full-on hosting mode. “August is our heavier entertaining month out here for dinners,” she says, “but I do lunch all summer, whether it’s a great lunch for one, or lunch for a couple or a table full.” Entertaining al fresco is de rigueur right now,

but Moss is also attuned to how weather on the East End can change at a moment’s notice and prepares accordingly.
“Always have a plan B,” she says. “You just pick it up and roll it inside, you know?” As for setting the scene, Moss creates flower arrangements from greenery and blooms from her own verdant garden, and chooses tablecloths, china, crystal and flatware from the extensive collection that she has assembled over the years. As with her interiors, which are often layered with an eye-catching array of patterns, colors and textures, the same is true for her inimitable tablescapes.
“It’s just like who I am, it’s my DNA, it’s how I decorate,” says Moss. “I love the detail, I love the layering, I love the mix and I know I’m comfortable with it.” As for the more-is-more approach, Moss is also fully aware of when enough is enough and when to pull back on the tabletop décor before it becomes overpowering.
“Entertaining is really about people,” she says, “not about the stuff.” For more of Moss’s favorite things for summer, her Hamptons weekend routine, what she’s reading right now, as well her favorite podcasts and apps, go to cottagesgardens.com/charlottemoss. ✹

HAVER & SKOLNICK ARCHITECTS
“Pointer Perch,” a Fishers Island retreat completed in 2022, is sited high on a rocky hill overlooking the Atlantic, surrounded by acres of protected woodlands, fields and ponds. The mantra for the design of the 1,200 square foot house was to build just what was needed for a couple and their dog, and nothing more. The owners desired a low-maintenance, sustainable retreat with just a few generously sized rooms positioned to capture the surrounding view. The house’s form was generated by a desire to climb as high as possible to capture the panoramic ocean views, with the living spaces placed at the top of the tower, and the bedroom below.

This low-slung, sapele-clad house overlooking a harbor was designed to respect the history and beauty of its setting. The house appears as a one-story structure upon approach, eventually revealing a lower story that opens up to the landscape with the falling terrain. A pool house and timber trellis structure overlook the pool. The main level of the house is partially clad in oak to envelop the interior in the warmth of wood. Each space has access to the exterior though floor-to-ceiling woodframed glass covered by a continuous overhang that protects the house and gives the feeling of living on a big porch.

finalist WORKSHOP/APD
Workshop/APD was tasked with the creation of a home that encouraged indoor-outdoor living, was oriented to highlight natural landscaping, and have a private primary suite and separate guest accommodations. The lot backs up to a lush property with a bucolic, “old Hamptons” farmland feeling. Every inch of the home’s interior is functional, with thoughtful storage and a unified material palette. One significant detail is the home’s roof structure, a sculptural, cantilevered, folded steel diaphragm that allows for a flexible plan beneath it. Simplicity, efficiency and eco-consciousness are all hallmarks of this project. The poured concrete floors were designed with no expansion joints, an acknowledgement that some cracking and natural wear is both acceptable and beautiful.

Located in a seaside town, this historic captain’s house was reimagined and updated within for a young family. The storied past of the house is reflected in a quiet palette of moody tones and bronze accents. Furnishings were selected and fabricated in a timeless tone, using heritage materials that celebrate traditional craft. Heirloom pieces sit within plastered walls, accented with specialty light fixtures, and a custom dining table is located between the dark, front parlor on the street side, and a bright, newly updated kitchen that overlooks a sunny herb garden.

On a waterfront site, the goal was to design a residence that takes advantage of views of the bay while bringing light into the building. The structure houses a collection of furniture and objects by 20th-century architects and artists. To experience the views of the water to the North, while allowing light from the front South exposure, the concrete structure is broken open like a cracked egg. An independent structural channel glass wedge acts as an infill object that reaches up above the concrete structure and grabs the light from the South like a lighthouse lantern.

Rising between a saltwater pond and the Atlantic Ocean, the “Seascape Residence” was elevated ten feet above grade to comply with FEMA regulations. Innovative stormwater management addresses the site’s complex hydrology and high-water table by employing strategically placed rain gardens that double as flood mitigators and a habitat for native pollinators. The design seamlessly blends with nature, minimizing traditional lawn space to enhance biodiversity and conserve water. Terraced steps and decking connect the raised residence with its surroundings, offering outdoor living spaces with an infinityedge pool, fire table and al fresco dining.

finalist HOLLANDER DESIGN LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS
Seeking more opportunities to bring friends together on summer evenings for fun and leisure, a young family in a contemporary home chose to expand their outdoor living space. The newest entertainment area, just beyond the pool, is centered on the sociability of gathering around a fire, sharing a bit of food and drink and playing bocce together. A sunken lounge with a fire pit is the heart of this space, inviting a change from poolside activities. Immersed in layers of naturalistic plantings and shaded by Chinese Elm trees, the lounge is tailored and sleek, in keeping with the home’s contemporary aesthetic. A soft, monochromatic planting palette and Madras Grey sandstone keep the space feeling tailored and sleek, yet warm and inviting.

KITCHEN DESIGN
winner HRH DESIGN GROUP
“Hidden Dunes” was a project four years in the making. Set among seven pristine acres abutting reserves in Amagansett, this family home was built not only for socializing on a large scale, but also for quieter moments of reflection. The kitchen is custom made, with extensive cabinetry and counter space. It has two islands with Olympian marble counters, multiple prep stations and allocated spaces to sit and relax and socialize during food preparation. The main sink is a 48-inch chef’s model, which is flanked by two dishwashers. Grooved cabinetry is made of cerused white oak, accented by modern brass drawer pulls from the United Kingdom. The ceiling has been clad with oak beams that span 24 feet and features rough-cut pine panels that will turn gray over time.

Located in the dunes of a seaside village, this kitchen is a study in contrast. Bright, soft light washes over a dark-hued palette of wood and metal, creating a modest and peaceful environment. The owners love to cook and spend most of their time in the kitchen. They appreciate serenity and clean lines. Situated as an anchor to a larger space, the kitchen is inviting, easy to navigate and an ideal space in which to cook.
finalist ITALKRAFT
This kitchen design seamlessly blends sophistication and functionality. Minimalist cabinetry, a neutral color palette and metallic accents create an elevated modern aesthetic. Highcaliber materials such as marble and matte-finished wood enhance the sleek design of the countertops and cabinets. The countertop’s marble gracefully extends into a wooden breakfast table at the island’s edge, creating a harmonious balance of natural elements, while highlighting their distinct textures. Large windows allow natural light to stream in, which creates a warm, inviting ambiance. Complete with Sub-Zero appliances, all elements of the kitchen—from the handle-less cabinets to the dramatic marble countertops and wood finishes—come together in an elegantly designed display of contemporary kitchen design.

BATH DESIGN
winner PEMBROOKE & IVES
For the primary bathroom in this Shelter Island home, the design firm had to seamlessly amalgamate three distinct spaces into a singular, primary suite. Encompassing a primary sitting room— with a free-standing bathtub, and a combined primary closet with a shower and water closet—the space brings together the many functions of a bathroom into a luxurious suite experience. To accommodate the free-standing stone bathtub by MTI, an immense amount of reinforcements were made to the floor and ceiling below to protect the space downstairs. The tub and a double-sink vanity rest atop an inset slab made from Paonazzo Caldia stone. The vanity, which was custom made by Pembrooke & Ives, uses the same stone, creating an elegant and seamless transition that is both classic and contemporary. The vanity has been detailed with lacquered drawer fronts and integrated illuminated mirrors.

finalist HAMILTON DESIGN ASSOCIATES
This project was a new build, working in partnership with the architect to develop all interior finishes, hardware and fittings for the main residence, as well as a cabana guest house, exterior living spaces and a boathouse. The firm did the interior decorating, inspired by their client’s love of the French Riviera and a desire to entertain their family and friends in their weekend/ summer home. The client loves color, and so the firm drew inspiration from Jean Cocteau and Jean-Michel Frank’s work in the South of France.

GAME
CHANGER

BY MAX BURKHALTER
Families change. They grow up. And when that happens, the house in which the family grew up together often needs to adapt, both inside and out. Such was the case for the family who has occupied this East Hampton property for 25 years—and continuing. “Now that our children are young adults and my husband and I have the good fortune to have them all nearby and around a lot, we decided to change the way we entertain and how we gather,” says the homeowner.
While playtime for years meant going to a room above the garage to cue up a round of pool, it was time to up the game, so to speak. Interior designer Mark Cunningham, architect Michael Gilmore of Weddle Gilmore and landscape architect Michael Derrig of Landscape Details were commissioned by the clients to be the game changers. A dedicated party barn (and its attendant paved terraces), was designed to function as a place not only to shoot pool, but also play ping-pong, gather around a firepit, watch TV on two giant screens (one cleverly concealed by Cunningham in a window seat), and just talk and converse, perhaps the best form of adult playtime. “The idea was to create a little compound of ancillary buildings on the property,” says Cunningham, who fashioned the interiors of the new barn and also within a one-bedroom cottage.
“One of my favorite details of the barn,” says Cunningham, “was Michael (Gilmore’s) gigantic sliding doors that you can open so wide that the room becomes part of the outside.” The homeowner concurs, adding, “Both Mark and Michael understood exactly what to do and what we wanted. When the big barn door is open, as well as the three sets of French doors, you feel completely part of the outdoors. You forget you’re actually inside when the outside is so present.”
While the homeowners wanted the play barn to be as refined as their main residence, they also needed it to be practical. Cunningham began his design scheme with

two pairs of club chairs, but upholstered with a vibrant striped performance fabric, as well as a rug that can easily absorb wet guests right from the swimming pool. The homeowner, who has worked on prior projects with Cunningham, says, “Décor wise, I just think Mark is the most talented designer out there today. There’s nobody who can compose a room the way he does. He made the barn comfortable, yet refined and family-friendly.”
Concurrent with the needs to respond to a family that has grown up, so, too, did the homeowners’ need to change the overgrown property. Not surprisingly, after two and a half decades, the bushes and trees, borders and flowers beds had become too bountiful. “Upon looking at the nearly two-acre property, I said to the homeowner, ‘We could make this property look twice as big if we open up the spaces,’” says Derrig. He and his crew removed the majority of the plants, even relocating a London Plane to carve out a circular driveway. “The house had a lot of loose borders,” explains Derrig, “so we put hedges throughout, on all four corners of the property, and created beds in front of those.” He fashioned an all-white garden, planted hydrangeas, apple trees, ginkgoes, magnolias, small ornamental trees and low-rising hedges that grow to about 30 inches high. “We didn’t so much want to create outdoor rooms, but rather give the property more definition while opening it up.”
The homeowner emphasizes that she wanted a new landscape that would be striking but not onerous to maintain. “Michael planted lots of perennials to help mitigate upkeep, he made a small cutting garden that is such a treat, put in beds of dahlias that you can admire now in summer until fall, and hydrangeas that are so appropriate out here. What Michael the architect, Mark the interior designer, and Michael the landscaper did for us was change the entire experience of our house.” ✹
