THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE (YOUR) HOME

perfection is in the details

Relax and Repeat

Last month, at the Salone del Mobile design fair in Milan, my colleague Melissa Groher and I were repeatedly asked questions like, “What trends are you seeing?” and “What are you loving so far?” Difficult to answer, because there was so much to admire—most of it very good, if not particularly groundbreaking—and I don’t really believe in trends so much, but rather think of them more as vehicles for P.R. ■ Yes, we did see lots of innovative, often sustainably made furniture, and the sort of minty cucumber hue I think of as “Dimorestudio green” continues to be popular, in addition to a rusty orange. But stuff does bubble up, and for me it was a preponderance of low-lying seating pieces: sofas, chairs, ottomans, floor cushions, and poufs, both for outdoors and in and made for lounging around. Is it possible we are all ready to take a breather after a long period of anxiety and fretfulness?

What’s wrong with a little slouching around, even lazily enjoying what life has to offer? As the longer days of summer near, I can’t imagine a better way to spend my time.

Perception and Reality

Fortunately, the perception of our company is that we publish magazines showcasing spectacular houses belonging to luxury homeowners and created by the design industry’s top professionals. And the reality is that we have applied our 20-plus years of experience and developed many more media formats, including digital, social, newsletters, e-mail, C&GTV, and events which create an even broader outreach to our passionate readers and followers. ■ Cottagesgardens.com and our other websites carry advertising and have now been joined by C&GDigital+, our programmatic advertising platform. Last year, $230 billion was spent on digital programmatic advertising, a figure that continues to grow. Why? Because it allows advertisers to deploy messages across multiple channels to the right people who are looking for their products, at the right times and at the desired locations, and convert them to walkin customers or those requesting services or making telephone calls. ■ Currently, C&GDigital+ is carrying messages on behalf of kitchen, lighting, and home furnishings companies, architects, insurance companies, and events and fairs around the country and getting results. And it costs less because it is automated, highly targeted, and has less waste. It doesn’t get much better than that. ■ If you would like C&GDigital+ to reach your customers when and where they want to buy, please contact me or go to candgdigital.com.

TARA KANTOR

“At its most basic, interior design is about the details,” says Scarsdalebased decorator Tara Kantor, whose work on an Upper East Side apartment is featured in this issue’s “Graphic Impact” (page 80). “The process is very cerebral and intuitive as you envision how everything will come together to form a cohesive look.” Kantor, a former schoolteacher, started out small, with “one friend who wanted to furnish her empty dining room and another who wanted to redo her kid’s bedrooms. I took whatever jobs I could in order to get up and running.”

DAMON LISS

New York–based interior designer

Damon Liss’s eye for style runs in the family. “My father was a highend clothing designer who had stores on Madison Avenue and in London, Paris, and San Juan, where I grew up and was fortunate enough to be exposed to design at a young age,” he recounts. “He had clients like Angela Lansbury and Marilyn Monroe, and I would help manage the inventory sometimes.”

As for his own clients, Liss says they are crucial to a project, such as the artful digs showcased in this issue’s “Harmonic Convergence” (page 70).

AMY KALIKOW

“Design is not just about great taste,” says Amy Kalikow, a decorator based in New York and the Hamptons. “It’s about finding special, unique pieces that fit perfectly into a beautiful picture.” Kalikow’s renovation of her own Hamptons home jump-started her business many years ago. “A friend saw it and hired me to do her apartment in the city, and then her home in Sagaponack. It just grew from there.” Turn to “Light and Easy” (page 92) to see how Kalikow helped convert an East Hampton spec house into a sumptuous retreat. —Shannon Assenza

Forever Fresh

Grandma’s favorite flower is making a splashy comeback

Geraniums in America are annuals popular in summer window boxes and whiskey barrels, although botanical purists refer to the plants by their true name, pelargoniums. In any case, “pretty pellies,” as the Brits like to call them, are popping into favor once more.

—Alejandro Saralegui

1. RED GERANIUM (Pelargonium ‘Calliope Large Red’)

Height: 16 to 20 inches

With regular deadheading, this classic pushes

out blooms all summer until the first frost. Leaning toward something less showy? Remove all the flowers on Monday, and by Friday you’ll have the perfect balance of red and green.

2. AFRICAN OR CAPE GERANIUM (Pelargonium sidoides)

Height: 10 inches

This delicate beauty features burgundycolored flowers with gray leaves no larger than a quarter. Extracts from the root are said to reduce symptoms of the common cold, bronchitis, and dysentery.

3. CAPE GERANIUM (Pelargonium ‘Crystal Palace Gem’)

Height: 12 to 24 inches

Introduced in 1869, this geranium’s variegated foliage and single scarlet-orange flowers will brighten up a shady corner, although it does require some sun.

4. ROSE-SCENTED

GERANIUM (Pelargonium graveolens)

Height: 3 feet

Used for centuries to make rose geranium oil, this fragrant pellie is worth keeping indoors over the winter. Also check out its cousin, P. tomentosum, laden with a refreshing peppermint scent.

5. MARTHA WASHINGTON GERANIUM (Pelargonium x domesticum ‘Martha Washington’)

Height: 1 to 3 feet

More suitable as a houseplant, this hybrid geranium produces crimson and blush-pink flowers that don’t last long, although they sure are pretty.

6. AMETHYST IVY GERANIUM (Pelargonium peltatum

‘Royal Amethyst’)

Height: 10 to 12 inches

This trailing geranium evokes the whitewashed buildings of Andalusia, flush with flowerstudded vines dripping from balconies. And it can handle the boiling summer sun, too.

7. MRS. COX GERANIUM (Pelargonium ‘Mrs. Henry Cox’)

This Technicolor standout comprises salmon pink flowers and triple-toned leaves. It was first developed in 1879 by a certain Mr. Henry Cox, who apparently never married. Yet another Victorian-era mystery!

8. AMERICANA WHITE GERANIUM (Pelargonium zonale ‘Americana White’)

Height: 14 to 16 inches

Sort of like a whiff of Coco Chanel crossed with Russell Page, this white variety is the quintessence of elegance, ideal for a moon garden or in big pots around a sparkling blue pool.

TIPS

• Deadhead geraniums often and don’t use clippers, as they can leave unsightly stubs. Most varieties produce flower stems that can be easily snapped off with your fingers.

• Geraniums, which originated in South Africa, like to be on the dry side, but not bone-dry.

• Apply fish emulsion or a liquid organic flower fertilizer regularly.

• Many geraniums root easily in water or Perlite with rooting hormone.

• For overwintering, repot geraniums in clay pots and bring them to a sunny spot indoors before the first frost.

Shining Bright

From antique fixtures to modern-day lamps, a couple sees the light

According to Benjamin Quittner Davidson, a lighting designer and restorer based in upstate Germantown, the legendary 19th-century dandy Beau Brummell said it best: “To be truly elegant, one should not be noticed.” The mantra rings true at Davidson’s storefront and workshop Quittner, which specializes in restoring antique light fixtures and has grown in recent years to encompass the production of brand-new pieces based on classic designs from the past. Throughout history, Davidson says, light fixtures “were made to solve the same problem: how to bring light into a space in a way that is beautiful, but ultimately unremarkable.” Pointing to a 1930s flush-mount piece that will later be ground and polished on an industrial sander, he adds, “Rewiring and

restoring a fixture to modern standards, then updating it with powder coating in different colors, allows it to continue being useful in a disposable market. What’s interesting with many antique fixtures is that attempts were often made to turn the designs into standards, but either they didn’t pan out or they peaked in popularity.”

Davidson and his wife, Quittner CEO Pippa Biddle, operate out of a lovingly restored 1870s barn, replete with antique crystal chandeliers hung from former bridle and tack hooks and bins stuffed with wiring accessories and lamp parts. (The pair’s offices occupy former horse stalls.) Partnering with Aleah StewartSouris, a ceramic artist, they produce hand-thrown ceramic lighting pieces ranging from pendants to surface-mount fixtures and table lamps. “Aleah comes

Hamptons Team at the Corcoran Group... This quartet of experienced brokers is fully dedicated to serving their clients with a range of skills, from a broad network of contacts and extensive knowledge of the business landscape to targeted marketing and the ability to close a deal. Additionally, it’s what they share at the core of their backgrounds that makes this team so successful: warmth, insight, understanding and a deep passion for the Hamptons.

from a restaurant production background and has the chops necessary to make the same form over and over again without losing the artistry of it,” Biddle says. Because metal lighting fixtures have standard scale and sizing requirements, it took a while to find the “right way to marry them with porcelain,” adds Davidson, who developed “prototype after prototype” to arrive at the perfect solution. True to his instincts for salvaging and repurposing, he found a way to resurrect a “really striking” piece the couple had given up on earlier and turn it into Quittner’s hallmark library lamp. Each edition bears a unique custom pattern on its ceramic shade, underscoring the personal touch that gives the company’s products a bespoke, luxury appeal. “A lot is asked of a light fixture,” Biddle muses, “so it’s important to pay attention to detail, especially with historically informed design.”

The final Quittner touch: a twisted cloth wire, offered in a variety of colors. “It feels nostalgic,” Biddle says, “and we consider it a bit of our signature.” Her husband concurs, saying, “In the 1920s, when people first started electrifying light, they could have run rubber-coated wire into a room, but they weren’t ready to make such an inelegant compromise. If you have to see wires, you can at least cover them so that they look good. Something that’s essential doesn’t necessarily have to be unattractive.” —Doug Young

THE INSIDE SCOOP ON REGIONAL REAL ESTATE

MILTON’S HILTON

Manhattan’s skyline may be ever evolving, but New York wouldn’t be New York without the historic buildings that still dot the landscape today. One such structure is NoHo’s 381 Lafayette Street, the former residence and studio of the late artist Robert Rauschenberg and now home to the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation. Built as a single-family townhouse in the early 19th century, the five-story property later served as a convent and school before the artist purchased it in 1965. He then proceeded to convert it back into a home, deconsecrating and removing an altar from the chapel and replacing the stained glass in the Gothic windows with clear glass. (The front façade remains the same, as the building lies within the NoHo Historic District.) In 1970, Rauschenberg moved to Captiva, Florida, but he held on to his New York pad—jokingly referred to by friends and frequent guests as “Milton’s Hilton,” a reference to the artist’s given name, Milton Ernest Rauschenberg. “Bob loved New York and this building,” says foundation senior curator David White, who met the artist in 1965 and started working for him in 1980. In 1990, when the foundation was created, “there were four people working here, and it was located wherever Bob was at the moment. Now it’s a much more formal operation, with a staff of about 25 between New York and Florida.”

Artist Nicholas Howey—who assisted White

That ’70s Show Artist Robert (né Milton Ernest) Rauschenberg lived and worked in this NoHo building, which has just undergone a renovation.

with administrative work on the fourth floor of the building from 1983 until 1990—notes the “family-run business” atmosphere and the “flurry of activity” during those early days. “Bob would produce work in Florida, send it to New York to be registered and photographed, and then we would ship it to shows,” he says.

In 2013, five years after Rauschenberg’s death, the artist’s estate officially turned the building over to the foundation, which has just completed a two-year renovation. “The goal was to clean it up, not change it,” says White, noting that the chapel now serves as an exhibition space, with different works displayed in rotation about three times a year. Although the building isn’t open to the public, scholars and students can visit the foundation—including the exhibition space and the fifth-floor archives—by appointment for research purposes. “Rauschenberg was such an interesting thinker, speaker, and writer,” says White, “and so much of his presence can still be felt here.” —Alyssa Bird

THIS ISSUE’S

BIG DEAL

THE HAMPTONS: SOFT LANDING?

Overall sales on the East End are down, but area brokers haven’t lost faith in Hamptons real estate. Although listing inventory increased 12.3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2021 to the same time last year, the number of homes on the market remains less than half of what it was prior to the pandemic, according to a report by appraisal firm Miller Samuel. And while the median sale price dropped 20.3 percent over the third quarter of 2022, it’s still a whopping 40.7 percent higher than the same period in 2019. “Most price points have remained strong given the lack of inventory,” says broker James Keogh of Douglas Elliman Real Estate. This scarcity,

along with mortgage rates doubling over the past year, contributed to the number of sales falling 52.6 percent between the fourth quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2022. Even so, Keogh points out, “we are seeing off-thechart interest in residences that are fairly priced or below market value, with multiple bids within 10 days.”

Fellow Douglas Elliman broker Regina Cigna adds that buyers are “pulling the trigger on newly built smart homes with great amenities, but older houses in less desirable locations are sitting on the market.” So what lies ahead this coming season? “My expectations are based on last year’s playbook,” says Keogh. “A typical spring surge will likely be followed by a relaxed July and August.” —Jean Nayar

Modern conveniences don’t always go hand-in-hand with mid-20th-century architecture, but the owners of 2 Charlie’s Lane on Shelter Island found a way around that. Originally designed in 1952 by architect Bertrand Goldberg (best known for Chicago’s Marina City complex, a.k.a. “the corn cob towers”), the waterfront residence was rebuilt on the existing footprint 50 years later by Manhattanbased firm David Schefer Design, which upgraded its systems and finishes for 21st-century living. Today, the 6,000-square-foot six-bedroom is on the market for $13.95 million with Sotheby’s International Realty’s Nick Brown, who praises the single-story structure’s “ultimate respect for its provenance, including original stone walls and an eight-flue fireplace. Visually, it still pays homage to its classic design.” In addition to its panoramic views of West Neck Harbor, the 3.4-acre property also boasts a saltwater gunite pool, a private beach, and a deepwater dock. —A.

Design—rose to the considerable challenge posed by their Manhattan-based clients: Build a house on a grand scale, one luxurious enough to accommodate and entertain beloved family and guests, yet intimate enough to be a blissful domestic getaway for two. The brief for the bucolic setting—two threeacre parcels comprising a former dairy farm and a dilapidated house—was to restore the site’s natural topography while also erecting a functional, sustainable compound designed for the future. Sited on the property’s highest elevation, the new 8,500-squarefoot home maximizes expansive views south across

the pond to the Atlantic Ocean. “The house displays a combination of traditional gabled volumes that reference original structures found on the site,” Lomont comments. “These forms are occasionally modified to alter the amount of daylight and enhance the indoor and outdoor spatial relationship. Flat roofs reduce scale and provide shading and covered porches.”

A primary wing and a guest wing flank a doubleheight living room that leads to a sprawling covered outdoor living, lounging, and dining area adjacent to an infinity pool. Although the structure is “larger than we typically build,” Lomont says, “we considered the scale, the mass, and the volume while breaking down the living spaces throughout.” Sapele, a durable,

sustainable African hardwood similar to mahogany, is employed almost everywhere, “tying together the tight material palette outside and inside.” It also helps delineate how people move from room to room. “I don’t like to look at doors,” the architect adds, “so the experience of walking through the house is a curated one. You are always walking toward the light or the art or the furniture in a controlled and organized way.”

Such finely articulated architecture created the ideal canvas for decorator Damon Liss, who had the task of “softening the home and making it feel beachy” without undermining its contemporary edge. “The clients are very well educated in art and design,” he notes, and rooms are indeed chock-full of

statement furniture and standout artworks, notably substantial pieces by Alex Katz in the living room and James Turrell in the dining room. “The question is what each individually curated element does in the space: They all need to speak to one another properly.” In the living room, boxy stacked wooden side tables with travertine tops flank a graceful Joaquim Tenreiro sofa and a T. H. Robsjohn-Gibbings Mesa cocktail table; in the dining room, the Turrell amplifies a custom Vincenzo De Cotiis table surrounded by a suite of 1950s Gio Ponti dining chairs salvaged from a cruise ship. “When you have a contemporary house with tons of glass,” Liss muses, “you don’t want to overdesign the interiors so that they become a distraction. You have to think about how much restraint you can have, while still making them inviting and interesting.”

The ample windows frame yet another artful vision, namely the spectacular landscape overseen by Hollander, who began his assignment by looking at “what makes the property special: its scale and the view of Georgica Pond. There needed to be a dialogue between the main house, the guesthouse, and the landscape, a choreography of how you arrive at the location and move through it from indoors to outdoors. The clients didn’t want old and stuffy East Hampton, so the design is fairly wild and informal, celebrating nature.” The flower-flanked infinity pool, in particular, is a reflective focal point that connects visually to the pond, “a living Monet painting that changes from sunrise to sunset every day. This entire house is very special, and a wonderful place to be.”

GRAPHIC IMPACT

A couple makes the move from a Tribeca loft to a classic Upper East Side abode—without forgoing their artful edge

BY DAVID MASELLO I PHOTOGRAPHS BY SEAN LITCHFIELD

Whenever interior designer Tara Kantor takes on a project, she often invokes Holden Caulfield, the narrator of The Catcher in the Rye. Prior to opening her eponymous firm in Scarsdale in 2013, Kantor taught English at a Long Island high school, and the J. D. Salinger novel was a mainstay in her classroom. She cites the book as one of her favorites and its main character as someone she channels for inspiration. “Those who like to read have an ability to envision places and people in their mind’s eye,” Kantor says, “so there’s a link between literature and decorating. That book speaks to me because it’s about a kid who feels

disconnected from his environment but learns how to negotiate it.”

With her work on this five-bedroom apartment in Manhattan’s Carnegie Hill, as well as her other residential projects, Kantor proves how a deep connection can be established between a house and its occupants. “Even in the planning stages,” homeowner and client Nicole Eldridge says, “Tara could show us what it would feel like to live with certain furnishings and accessories. I loved everything she showed my husband and me because I knew how those items would feel to us.”

The couple, who had been living in a rambling loft in Tribeca, had moved to the Upper East Side to be closer to their children’s schools. The large unit in a classic prewar building had the airiness and openplan aura of a downtown loft, but with firmly demarcated living and

sleeping wings. “It really feels like a house in an apartment building,” says Kantor, “with lots of privacy for each of the family members.”

Apart from some cosmetic changes—additional kitchen cabinetry, new floor stains—the apartment was in move-in condition. But while Kantor was nearly finished selecting the furnishings and accessories, the pandemic hit. “We couldn’t quite wrap it up,” she recounts, “but Nicole and I are aesthetically aligned, and it all came together quickly when we were able to start decorating again. This is one my favorite projects, and there’s nothing I would change.”

Eldridge and her husband had wanted all new furnishings, except for an existing collection of contemporary artworks, which they had begun assembling when they were in their early 20s. “We both love every piece of art we buy, and we’re

passionate about displaying it to its fullest,” Eldridge says. Kantor’s task: Scale the custom furniture and arrange accessories in a way that no artwork would be obscured. Perhaps the most telling example of this interplay is a bold Keith Haring work that amplifies the foyer, positioned above an equally arresting floating oak credenza made by Simon Johns, which Kantor sourced at the annual ICFF show. “The hand-carving and fluting almost makes the piece appear volcanic,” Kantor says. “I thought it was spectacular the moment I saw it.”

Kantor is a fan of color but leans toward more monochromatic schemes for wall surfaces, convinced that a neutral palette makes for a “peaceful, Zen-like way to live,” in addition to providing a fitting backdrop for works of art. “All walls need love,” she muses, “and without art on the walls, a space just doesn’t feel finished.” ✹

LIGHT AND EASY

In this family-friendly East Hampton retreat, the design aesthetic is peaceful, playful, and provocative all at once

BY ALYSSA BIRD I PHOTOGRAPHS BY REGAN WOOD

trusting client who gives you carte blanche is about as good as it gets for a decorator. So it’s no surprise that Manhattan- and Hamptons-based interior designer Amy Kalikow leapt at the opportunity to work for a second time with a past client, Gabrielle Longobardi, having renovated her traditional shingle-style getaway on the East End several years ago. After spending more time than expected in the house during the pandemic, Longobardi and her husband decided that they and their daughter needed more space, and that’s when the call went out to Kalikow once again.

“We considered building something from scratch, but as we looked into that possibility further, it proved to be a much bigger task than we were up for,” recounts Longobardi. The solution? She and her husband snapped up a 7,000-square-foot home in the final stages of construction instead. “This house ended up being perfect because the builder allowed us to select some of the finishes, such as tile, countertops, hardware, and lighting.”

With much of the anchor materials already in place, Kalikow stepped in to lend her expert eye to the furnishings and accessories. “They didn’t have any specific mandates for me,” says Kalikow, a former

advertising account director who pivoted to decorating 11 years ago after taking a break to start a family. “We’re very much in line aesthetically, so Gabrielle told me to design it as if it were my own house.”

Given that the residence is more contemporary in style than her clients’ previous abode, Kalikow started from square one, incorporating many custom pieces to lend a “creative, original touch,” she says. “I don’t want the houses I do to look like anyone else’s.” The same approach held true for all paint colors, ambient lighting, and wallpaper. “The running joke is that the only thing my husband got to choose is the powder room wallpaper,” Longobardi says with a laugh. “Amy found the pattern, and then we let him select the colorway.”

During the first project, client and decorator engaged in a good deal of back and forth about design specifics, but not this time. “Our style is perhaps a bit less modern than what Amy’s can be, and I sometimes have trouble visualizing things initially, but I know what I like when I see it,” says Longobardi. “And Amy has gotten to know us really well.” As it happens, aside from the boldly patterned wallpapers Flavorful

in the powder room, dining room, and daughter’s bedroom, the overall palette is quite pared back. “They wanted everything neutral, calming, and spalike, but they are also fun people at the same time, so we added some playful lighting and wallpaper,” Kalikow says of the project. “There’s a lot of layered texture, with shades of white, beige, taupe, and gray.” And despite the white that prevails throughout— from shiplap walls in the entry to virtually all the area rugs—the house is one that’s designed for chilling out. “Gabrielle and her husband have a child, a dog, and guests around all the time, and these are things to be mindful of as a decorator. My job was to design a chic, beachy home that’s not untouchable. This is a vacation property, and I want them to have a peaceful place to relax, where wet bathing suits, dirty feet, and sand everywhere aren’t an issue. The Hamptons is all about easy living.” ✹

INTERVIEW BY DAVID MASELLO PHOTOGRAPHS BY RIKKI SNYDER

A house on the coast of Long Island Sound reflects the water and basks in the light

STUNNER

Water is everywhere at this new house in Mamaroneck, from its indoor pool to its perch on the edge of Long Island Sound. Architect Cindy Stoll and interior decorator Kerry Delrose lend some insight on how the spectacular site dictated their design decisions.

HC&G/NYC&G: Had each of you worked with the homeowners before?

Cindy Stoll (architect, founding partner of the New Rochelle–based firm Stoll & Stoll): I had done a small renovation for them on the same lot, a 1950s-era ranch house with a Japanese feel to it. Once that work was done, and after the clients had figured out what kind of new house they wanted, I came on board again.

Kerry Delrose (decorator, founder of New York–based Delrose Design Group): The homeowners are first-time clients of mine. They had called my office after seeing one of our projects published in NYC&G —an apartment on the 38th floor of a building on Leonard Street in Manhattan known as the “Jenga” tower.

Long Island Sound is an undeniable force to be reckoned with here. How did you respond to a site where water is the operative word?

CS: The original house had an existing indoor pool, which became the central courtyard element—we essentially designed the new house around it. The

original pool was not visible from inside the old house, but now it’s visible from every room. We extended the water element further by adding an outdoor spa with an infinity edge, over which water spills to form a fountain and beyond which is the expanse of Long Island Sound.

KD: For the interiors, it was important to take cues from the blues and the grays of the water, rather than aim for shock appeal with an orange sofa. There was simply no reason to fight that view, and in this case that includes artwork. Given the expanse of windows, the house doesn’t offer much wall space for art. The Mona Lisa is the water itself.

How did you design a house that is essentially a curtain wall of glass but also imbue it with real architectural presence?

CS: We often referenced the Japanese aura of the former house, which the clients had lived in and liked. Horizontal bandings visually hold the house together on the rear side, which faces the water, and bands of copper along the roof, articulated railings, and stone columns are also crucial. The indoor pool is topped with a clerestory, which not only brings in light, but also serves as a strong architectural gesture, rising higher than the roofline of the rest of the house. And a three-story stone wall supports the stairway—it’s essentially a three-dimensional block rising up through the house.

(this page left) A Lazzoni armchair and a Prospect cocktail table from Lawson-Fenning occupy a prime viewing spot in the living room. (opposite) A three-story stone wall supports the interior stairway. See Resources.

What sort of design challenges did you face on a site where not only the seasons change, but the water and light can vary every day and even every hour?

KD: The clients and I talked a lot about how the light and the seasons define the experience of being in these rooms. We started with what I call “the point of origin”: namely, from the ground up. We chose Stark carpets and built from there, focusing on soothing, calming colors.

CS: The clients use the water sources year-round, by the way—no matter the temperature or the season. They’re in the water every day, whether it’s the indoor pool or the outdoor spa a few steps away.

Is it possible in a structure like this to tire of water views? They are always there, after all. KD: You have to love the water, and they certainly do. But there are ways to temper that and make the interiors stand on their own. We included ambient lighting elements, such as a Noguchi sculpture in the primary bedroom and super-sexy glass globe lights in the dining room that are set at different heights. The furniture in the bedroom feels akin to a comfy suite at the Carlyle Hotel, with chairs set in front of the fireplace and the bed facing them, instead of the water directly. And privacy was a concern from the start, since the indoor pool is so prevalent and all the bedrooms are visible from floor-to-ceiling windows. The solution: motorized shades! ✹

Dinner Theater

Restaurants are taking the notion of a memorable meal to a whole new level

Journey 360 (27 W. 24th St., NYC, journeyexperience.nyc)

The Show: This “theatrical gastronomy” adventure, the brainchild of Broadway producer Marc Routh, takes diners on a trip to the Amazon, the Arctic, a volcano, an undersea shipwreck, and outer space courtesy of 360 video projection, accompanied along the way by an exquisitely crafted tasting menu by chef Edward Hong.

The Ticket: $175 tasting menu ($250 with wine pairing).

Chef Guo (135 E. 50th St., NYC, chefguo.com)

The Show: An 18-course “royal imperial” Chinese tasting menu by chef Guo Wenjun, beautifully presented by waiters wearing brocade robes. Tang dynasty specialties include a bean curd beggar’s purse presented in a rosewood box and the Butterfly Loves the Flower, a riff on Chinese pīn pán with rice-paper butterflies.

The Ticket: Tasting menu with rare teas, $518; wine additional.

99th Floor (secret NYC location revealed the night before, @99thFL)

The Show: Presented by James Beard–nominated chef Miguel Trinidad, this once-monthly multicourse cannabis tasting dinner features cocktails and food expertly microdosed with THC, enough to bring on a gradual high approximately equivalent to a bottle of wine.

The Ticket: Advance membership required; $200 to $250 for dinner and cocktails, depending on the menu.

Duryea’s (40200 Main Rd., Orient Point, duryeas.com)

The Show: You provide the entertainment by pulling up in your boat to this French Riviera–style dockside venue on the tip of Long Island’s North Fork. (Dress to turn heads!) Tuck into a seafood tower of oysters, snow crab, clams, and jumbo shrimp, quaff a magnum of the restaurant’s private-label rosé from Provence, and soak up the Saint-Tropez vibe.

The Ticket: Seafood tower for two, $125; rosé magnum, $215.

Tokyo Record Bar (127 MacDougal St., NYC, tokyorecordbar. com)

The Show: Each of 20 diners enjoying a sixcourse izakaya menu requests one song from a playlist of 200 vinyl records. A DJ spins the custom soundtrack while Champagne, sake, and beer energize the crowd in this dark and cozy Greenwich Village basement location.

The Ticket: $65 tasting menu, with sake pairings starting at $38.
