Poggenpohl can be found in homes in more than 70 countries around the world. Integrating the size and architecture of the built environment, its designers start with a clean slate and work from there, considering the space and the customer’s preferred design theme to create a unique, individual kitchen. Whatever the brief, Poggenpohl aims for perfection.

POGGENPOHL AND LUXE INTERIORS + DESIGN’S MARKETING TEAM PROUDLY PARTNERED TO HONOR THREE CUSTOM KITCHEN DESIGNS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
Brilliant Small-Space Winner
Bespoke Design Challenge Winner
Poggenpohl Downtown, New York, NY
Beck/Allen Cabinetry, St. Louis, MO
Roger Zierman, Poggenpohl Downtown
Mike Beck, Beck/Allen Cabinetry
After a 30-year occupant moved out, a young couple purchased this apartment, refreshing it with daring and unique finishes from head to toe. The tiny, 49-square-foot kitchen (small even by New York standards) receives its personality from Poggenpohl’s gray nut tree cabinetry and aluminum backsplash— complete with Gorilla wallpaper. Functionality was key, with custom features to clear the countertops of clutter and create space for clever, smaller-scale appliances.

This kitchen design was part of a complete renovation on the 20th floor of a condominium in St. Louis, Missouri. The entire unit was stripped from floor to ceiling, and reconfigured to fulfill the homeowners’ wishes for an open floor plan. To accommodate their desire for a welcoming kitchen with clean lines, Poggenpohl products were used here and in nearly every room in the home. The result is a modern, seamless aesthetic.

ON THE GO
This July/August issue marks our annual celebration of global design. In it, we take you around the world— everywhere from a curated concept shop in Marrakesh to a 1950s Berlin high-rise-turned-whimsical hotel, with bicycles suspended from the lobby’s ceiling. We also, always, bring you much closer to home with the best in regional design. While jetting off to another time zone can often inspire, so, too, can your own zip code. In addition, we’re encouraging readers to take another trip this summer: over to our new digital content site, luxedaily.luxesource.com, where you’ll discover design-related stories galore. Our 13 regional editions of Luxe provide an endless array of styles, ideas and design resources from across the country.
This page: Luxe takes you on an international journey this issue, highlighting such dynamic global venues as Morocco’s L’Hôtel Marrakech (top, left and right), designed by Jasper Conran, and the Berlinische Galerie in Berlin (above).

“While it isn’t a trend but rather a predictable constant in design, metals were on display at Spring Market. Seeing the way companies like Milling Road for Baker reimagined classic finishes—as they did with the Wrap console—in a fresh and modern way is incredibly inspiring to us. The marble top paired with the sleek, sexy base makes this piece a total showstopper. Vintage was another strong theme we saw in furnishings, art and accessories. We were impressed with the Barrie Benson collection for Highland House. The way she reimagined vintage pieces of furniture and explored bold color palettes was exciting beyond words!” Milling Road

“Craftsmanship and an appreciation for artisan work were dominant themes at HPMKT, and are a major cultural push impacting interior design today. The usage of materials in their raw form showcases their natural beauty. Our absolute favorite was the Floating Credenza 1702 from Craft Associates Furniture. They used solid walnut to create the most sensual form that celebrates the grain of the wood.” Credit: Addison Jones Photography

“Neutrals were being paired with different styles and accents throughout the showrooms we visited at HPMKT. We fell head over heels for the John-Richard Brass Six-Light Chandelier. The white marble paired so fabulously together with the brass—such a modern take on a classic chandelier shape and style. We also loved the Bark Chair by OLY—the classic style with the textured look of tree bark can be used in interior or exterior applications. We love the OLY line in general because of the clean modern vibe that gives a nod to past classic looks.”

FUTURE TRENDS
What do the Style Spotters see coming to HPMKT this Fall? Look for more vintage-inspired pieces, unexpected artisan touches, and white textures incorporating ethereal finishes. Highland House

memo SHARON SUMMER PUBLISHER
Summer is known for its long, lazy days that force life to slow down a bit, but here at Luxe Interiors + Design, we went racing into summer following some lively spring events, which were as diverse as they were dispersed around the New York market. In March, we partied at Calligaris’ new SoHo showroom, partnered with the ASID NY Metro Chapter at Country Carpet in Syosset for a discussion on “Business of Design,” and marveled at the efficiency and elegance of Neolith’s Tiny House at HG Stones’ Brooklyn location. Then, in April, we were in Greenwich, Connecticut, to help raise awareness and funds for the Global Lyme Alliance. We also co-hosted Rochelle Udell’s provocative “Where Do You Sit In Life” exhibit at 200 Lexington and celebrated with West Chin’s talented and fun group at his New York showroom. Finally, Luxe recognized some talented students and design legends as we premiered our next edition of Master Class videos with The Decorator’s Club in May. See more photos from these events on our Gatherings pages, as well as peruse the fourth publication of the Hamptons 50, in which we explore the design trends and the people who create them on the east end of Long Island. Enjoy the summer and this issue.

BEHIND THE SCENES GET TO KNOW A FEW OF OUR CONTRIBUTORS FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AS THEY TALK ALL THINGS DESIGN. PRODUCED BY SARAH RAMIREZ
MIMI FAUCETT Writer / Austin My creative influences come from… Print magazines. Nothing gives me more creative joy than a favorite, familiar magazine still having the ability to surprise me. Long live print! Favorite book: Grace: A Memoir by Grace Coddington. Not only is the story inspiring, but the hot-orange cover makes this book coffee table-worthy. Top three things on your design wish list: I’m dying for a set of black linen sheets from Hawkins New York—what I consider to be the perfect summer bed set. I’m also currently obsessing over L.A. artist Bari Ziperstein’s quirky ceramic vases, and I’m steadily saving a spot on my wall for a face painting (or two!) from Sally King Benedict. Most fascinating person you’ve ever met: My grandmother, Nana. She’s someone who’s generous with time, laughter and sensitivity, but first and foremost, she’s a listener. It’s rare to get a story about her past, but when you do, it’s always fascinating.
ARIC ATTAS
Photographer / Palm Beach If not a photographer, I would be… A musician. I’ve performed with jazz, rock and blues bands over the years. I also create guitar-based Ambient Soundscapes to accompany many of my fine art exhibitions, as I find sound is a great counterpoint to my visually oriented work. Prized possessions: I have a photograph from the first roll of film I shot. It’s a black-and-white print I took at age 12, and I treasure it because I’m intrigued by how this simple close-up of a printing press foreshadowed my fascination with light, space, form and design. Also, my health. Having won two fights with cancer, I am aware of the value of good health, and I cherish it every day. Finally, I love my best friend and studio mate, Macchiato, a 3-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback, who was rescued from an elephant preserve. Upcoming project: I’m excited to be working on new photographs for an upcoming solo exhibition at the Clare Gallery in Hartford, Connecticut, that will run from October 14 through December 31. These cosmos-inspired images explore the intersection of art, science and spirituality.
LX_COM14_Contributors.indd 92
ERIC PIASECKI Photographer / New York What type of design inspires you? Though my personal aesthetic tends to lean toward modern, I enjoy all different types of interiors. Right now, I really like seeing how designers are taking traditional design and adding modern twists to make it more contemporary. If money were no object, I’d buy… A new horse for our barn in New Mexico. Most interesting person you’ve met: Years ago, we were shooting Versace’s mansion in South Beach, Miami, and I got to meet famed photographer Helmut Newton by the gold-tiled pool—it was an over-the-top experience all around! Preferred superpower: It would have to be the ability to fly— no more airplanes! Of course, I would need some kind of side car for all my equipment.
KARA PICKMAN Writer / Miami Favorite design trend: That everything old becomes new again—I could live in any of Terence Conran’s design books, but I’m particularly partial to the 1974 edition of The House Book. And if you’re into obsessing over details (or like to think you are), check out the quirky photo styling in the 1990 edition of Complete Home Storage. Dream assignment: I’m honored to work with innovative clients across the country and around the world who champion art and design, including the Guggenheim, Pérez Art Museum Miami, the Smithsonian, Design Miami/ and many more, and my goal is to always both expand and refine my client list and creative projects. Most-treasured possessions: The dining room table and chairs passed down to us from my mother-in-law and late father-in-law; they were custom-made in Spain for my wife’s grandmother. The table seats at least 10 and is so large we had to take the dimensions into account when we purchased our first home two years ago. There was no way we were buying a house where we couldn’t eat around that table! If I had $20,000 to blow, I’d… Commission the custom Cuban floor tiles my wife wants for our sun room—and start the renovation we’ve been planning. On your nightstand: Most recently, Elif Batuman’s novel The Idiot. If not a writer, I would be… An art conservator. Maybe in another life...

VISUAL HISTORY AT VENERABLE COVERINGS COMPANY DE GOURNAY, THE CECIL GURNEY SISTERS CARRY ON THEIR FATHER’S LEGACY WHILE KEEPING THEIR EYES ON THE FUTURE THROUGH A SERIES OF BUZZ-GENERATING COLLABORATIONS. WRITTEN BY MICHELLE BRUNNER
Imagine growing up in a magical world where butterflies flutter along perfectly painted vines and mischievous monkeys frolic up and down the walls. Now imagine that place is your childhood home and those fanciful landscapes are the family business, and you might get a sense of the charmed upbringing had by sisters Hannah and Rachel Cecil Gurney. “We grew up in a stunning house, decorated by our father, just opposite Kensington Gardens in London,” says Hannah. “My sister and I used to sit on the stairs, fascinated by the Chinese figures on the wallpaper.” Depicting peasant life in rural 18th-century China, the pattern, which featured scenes of silk-weaving and porcelain-making, wasn’t just a work of breathtaking decoration, but also a lesson in history and culture. “It was all very exotic to a 6-year-old Londoner, and our father would happily spend hours talking us through it all,” she says. Their father, Claud Cecil Gurney, founded de Gournay, the world-renowned maker of exquisite handmade wallcoverings, christening the brand with the French root of the family name in 1986.

As the story goes, Claud had trouble finding skilled artisans to restore some antique wallpaper in his home; so, through the Chinese Trade Commission in London, he located artists familiar with the painting techniques in mainland China. Working with the craftsmen, he began to create hand-painted papers, reigniting a tradition that had begun in the early 18th century, when chinoiserie was all the rage among the European aristocracy. By staying true to original production techniques— typically six artisans work on a single paper that can take up to 150 hours to produce—Claud created a truly bespoke luxury item. Today, his daughters help run the company—Hannah as director, and Rachel as the global style manager—putting their stamp on a number of forward-thinking initiatives while preparing to take over the family business when their father retires. “Our father has been wonderful about allowing us to make decisions and take on a lot of responsibility,” says Hannah. “He understands that if he is serious about handing over the reins, he needs to trust and support our ideas and allow us to learn from our mistakes. We love what we do so much that we want to ensure we safeguard it for the next generation.” The company’s vision has expanded to include both more contemporary designs and ones that reflect other global perspectives, such as the more abstract Japanese and Korean collection, an
example of which features a weeping willow motif, or the Papiers Peints Panoramiques collection, which is inspired by 19th-century French murals of exotic scenes. “While de Gournay has always been seen as a company that makes very traditional hand-painted papers, my sister and I encourage a more modern aesthetic through employing innovative new techniques and colorways, as well as developing new collections,” says Hannah. One strategic move that has proven successful: a string of high-profile collaborations, the most recent of which is an au courant take on an Art Deco motif inspired by and created in conjunction with Harrods department store. “Art Deco is making a comeback in interior design, and I love the use of geometric shapes, gilt and lacquer in interiors,” says Rachel. “The new design features an ornate scallop pattern gilded onto a metallic background with hand-painted watercolor accents.” Adds Hannah, “The wallpaper has a contemporary edge that we think will appeal to a whole new audience.”
In the quest to expand the brand’s reach, de Gournay pairs up in September with style icon Kate Moss, the latest partnership to feature a boldface name more synonymous with the runway than the annals of interior design. Other recent sartorial collaborations include Matthew Williamson, Jenny Packham and Moda Operandi. Most recently, the company teamed up with Italian fashion label Aquazzura for a line of embroidered footwear and a Tropicalia-inspired wallpaper (shown in part on the previous page), which they developed as a nod to brand founder Edgardo Osorio’s Colombian heritage. Of the synergy between the company and the fashion industry, Hannah feels it’s a natural fit—after all, wallpaper is a form of dressing for one’s home. “There are a lot of similarities between couture and de Gournay,” she says. “We make everything by hand to the highest quality while offering limitless bespoke capabilities. Furthermore, people with style tend to have flair when it comes to their interiors, and vice versa. These days being stylish extends to a whole lifestyle, not just your clothing.”

RADAR / BIG IDEA
All handmade rugs tell a tale, spinning a narrative through silk and wool. In the case of Amadi Carpets, there’s another story as well: In 1984, the Ahmadi family fled war-torn Afghanistan to neighboring Pakistan, eventually emigrating to America with little more than the clothes on their backs and a talent for weaving. Here, Zubair Ahmadi, one of the five brothers behind the brand, shares with us the company’s artistic and philanthropic vision. For 20 years, Amadi Carpets has created some of the most dynamic and finely made rugs on the market. How did you learn the skills of the trade? Growing up in a family of nine children in Afghanistan, we learned the art of weaving from our mother, whose family opened the first silk-weaving factory in Kabul during the 1960s. As a kid, I worked on the loom alongside my brothers after school. We also learned to restore different types of antique rugs and textiles from various countries over the years, so we not only have a knowledge of the construction, but we’re familiar with different techniques and styles. Those same skills eventually led me and my brother, Zabi, to open
WRITTEN BY BRITTANY S. CHEVALIER
our own small 400-square-foot workshop in Los Angeles in 1995, where we refurbished rugs found at flea markets and auctions. Today, all five of us—Zabi, Assad, Jawid, Murtaza and me—work collectively on operations and designs at Amadi. How did you grow the company from a local repair shop to a global enterprise? Two years after opening our shop, we couldn’t find the quality of rugs we desired. We learned of numerous Afghan weavers who had fled to nearby Peshawar, Pakistan, during the civil war in the 1990s. We feel a deep connection with the people of Afghanistan and were looking for a way to assist those refugees. Zabi made the journey to Peshawar in 1997, and, coincidentally, ran into a foreman who worked in the factory that belonged to our mother’s family. Hiring him and his family led to employing other refugees. As the years went on, five looms turned into 10, 10 turned into 200, and soon we were employing over 1,000 Afghan weavers living in Pakistan.
At what point did you move the weaving operation back to Afghanistan? After the country’s liberation from the Taliban in 2003, many of the workers returned to Afghanistan. That’s when we opened our first weaving workshop in Kabul and our focus shifted to employing an ignored sector of the population: women. It was our goal to create a safe workplace
where women would be empowered to make a living. It wasn’t easy: Even though we were from Afghanistan ourselves, we had to convince fathers, husbands and brothers that we were setting up a safe, harassment-free environment for their daughters, wives and sisters. Providing transportation to and from work offered them further protection. Additionally, due to four decades of ongoing war, a whole generation has been raised without an education; therefore, we offer one hour of basic reading and writing lessons every day. In terms of the process, what distinguishes you from other rug companies? Since we control our own production, we get to be more creative, productive and effective than a typical rug gallery or company. From sourcing the raw wool to washing it, carding and dying it, we control every step. And the fact that we are improving lives along the way is an added plus. Share what’s next for Amadi, design- and philanthropy-wise. We want to be more than a rug company. We’d like to launch furniture and textile lines one day. In terms of giving back, our goal is to extend the outreach of our programs and build more weaving centers in other parts of Afghanistan. After all, women are the backbone of the family, so if you help one woman, you help many people beyond her.

When you walk into Katherine Wildt O’Brien’s studio, you’d be forgiven for thinking you stumbled into a jeweler’s workshop or a geology buff’s paradise. A panoply of glimmering stones greets visitors of the space—with bright crystal quartz, deep violet amethyst and gleaming pyrite, also known as fool’s gold, all on glorious display. Unearthed from the farthest reaches of the globe, the shining specimens inspire New York City-based
Matthew Studios’ collections, which include hardware, lighting and case goods. Wildt O’Brien’s love of exotic rocks started at a young age. As a teenager, she worked parttime in a gem shop, where an eccentric, elderly West Indian woman taught her about crystals and their properties. Following her passion, she established Matthew Studios, named for her pet rabbit, in 2008. Her big break came when Tory Burch asked her to design crystal luminaries

for her stores. “Just walking into the Tory Burch offices is so inspiring,” she says. “When we got the opportunity to work on custom lamps for her, it was a dream come true, not to mention a creative learning experience.” Today, the company occupies a large loft space in Harlem, close to where the designer lives. In fact, it was the area’s African market, just a few blocks away from her studio, that provided the impetus for Wildt O’Brien’s latest hardware line. “I love the handcrafted, global ‘Gypset’ vibe at the market,” she says. “I have been collecting cowrie shell earrings for years and have wanted to do a collection incorporating them, since the cowrie shell is a traditional symbol of wisdom and abundance. Horn is another favorite used in African craft, and a powerful talisman of strength and inner power.” Acquiring it is another story: “It took two years to find a reputable source for naturally shed horn,” she says. Not surprisingly, Wildt O’Brien’s inspiration board is full of recognizable safari-chic imagery, such as film stills from Out of Africa, photos from vintage Ralph Lauren runway shows, the work of photographer Peter Beard and shots of intricate, hand-beaded Masai necklaces. “The pieces are imbued with a nomadic spirit,” she says. A passion for travel, painting and even flea-market finds also filters into the design process. “I recently found a red-tagged, sale-bin rhinestone purse, and the handle inspired my new metal Harper cabinet pull series,” she says. Refined settings of polished brass, nickel and chrome allow the stones to steal the show, whether it’s the deep whiskey-hued facets of smoky quartz or the vibrant emerald waves of malachite—both of which are sourced from mines in South America and Africa, respectively.
LX_COM14_Radar_Bespoke_MathewStudio.indd 104
“Simple forms are paired with natural, tonal textures that resonate against hand-cast metal,” Wildt O’Brien says. That juxtaposition of organic forms with polished finishes lends the collection a sophisticated well-traveled vibe that hints at many of the pieces’ exotic origins. Says the designer, “I’m still charmed by the idea that these stones have journeyed around the world to end up in a stylish new setting.”

THE INSIDER
MARTYN LAWRENCE BULLARD WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY HEATHER CARNEY
The first thing you’ll notice in Martyn Lawrence Bullard’s new atelier is the punchy patterns, then the striking colors, and finally, you’ll spot the whimsical light fixtures floating overhead. It’s a lot to take in, and that’s by design. After all, this 2,100-square-foot-space on Melrose Avenue is meant to personify the celebrity designer’s eclectic-glam aesthetic. “It’s a whole Martyn Lawrence Bullard world,” he says of his first-ever showroom. “L.A. is filled with life—people here are not scared of color, or of genres or of being avant-garde. I hope my space is a mirror image of that.” Here, the designer speaks about his travels, upcoming projects and decorating with color. martynlawrencebullard.com
How is the space configured? It has these amazing large windows that look out onto Melrose Avenue. I covered the ceilings in a silver Mylar that bounces light throughout the space. Using my wallpapers, I divided it into sections for showcasing furniture, accessories and art, and I created a separate wallpaper and fabric gallery
You’re definitely not shy of color. I love color, and I’m not scared to use it. Color is making a big comeback—the days of cream-on-cream and all beige are gone. I’m seeing the design trends move toward including pops of color and statement pieces in the mix, such as lacquered furniture or a great work of art. Speaking of art, what works do you feature in the showroom? I’m representing some wonderful photographic artists, such as artist Cheyenne Randall, who takes iconic imagery and hand-paints tattoos onto it. Then, there’s Ruven Afanador, a fashion and portrait photographer who did a collection of beautiful gypsy flamenco dancers. They’re slightly esoteric and mix well with Pop art. featuring my collection with Schumacher, as well as pieces from Candice Held in Palm Springs and collections from South Africa and London. What’s on the floor? I recently picked up a beautiful 1970s sculpture and some cerulean-inlaid tables while in London. I also found a collection of ’60s and ’70s Murano glass bottles and sculptures. I just got a Portuguese bed and console that I updated by lacquering the bed in a high-gloss
What’s next? I have a collection launching with Frontgate in September, and another wallpaper line on the horizon with Cole & Son. Between now and into early 2018, I’ll be working on a variety of hospitality projects: Tommy Hilfiger’s legendary Raleigh hotel in Miami, the Four Seasons Residences in L.A., and Kimpton’s The Residences at Seafire on Grand Cayman. And, to top it all off, I have a new TV show in the mix.

WHO: Christine Stucker and James Veal, the duo behind the Brooklyn-based Stewart-Schafer architecture, design and fabrication studio. Their backgrounds: her, fine art and interior design; him, project management and production. WHAT: Get a glimpse of the pair’s upcoming projects, goods they’re coveting and global places from which they source their materials. WHY: Because the duo love what they do— and it shines through. Their admiration for the design industry is palpable. IN THEIR WORDS: “No two days are alike, and each day calls for a different set of skills. One week we may be sourcing huge blocks of Bardiglio marble for a retail project, and the next we are designing custom bathroom fixtures for a residential client. This forces us to always be looking for groundbreaking new ways to interact with design, rather than follow fleeting trends.”
BLUEPRINT It turns out the same man who croons about American women and the desire to fly away also has an eye for design. Lenny Kravitz’s namesake firm, Kravitz Design, is responsible for the interiors of a new condominium in NoLIta: 75 Kenmare. The building, expected to be completed in late 2018, is the singer’s first full design commission—but those expecting a typical rock ’n’ roll leather style should look elsewhere. Partnering with architect Andre Kikoski, Kravitz injected each of the 38 units with clean lines and sophisticated materials such as marble kitchen countertops, travertine bathroom walls and white-oak flooring. In addition to its rock-star status, 75 Kenmare will also boast amenities like a garage with sliding platforms that maneuver cars into storage spaces. 75kenmare.com
CHECK IN 1 HOTEL BROOKLYN BRIDGE Who says there’s no green in New York City? Just set foot in the verdant lobby of the new 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, situated on Pier 1 under the shadow of its namesake overpass. Having officially opened—appropriately—on Earth Day, the eco-minded hotel boasts a 25-foot green lobby wall designed by Harrison Green, plus plants and trees scattered throughout the space and its 194 guest rooms. INC Architecture & Design took on the interiors, introducing leathers, stones and linens for a more natural aesthetic and as a nod to the blue-collar shipping roots of the Brooklyn waterfront—a theme particularly noticeable in the industrial lighting and rough-hewn ropes and woods. In keeping with the “use what you have” mentality, the hotel is curated with pieces of art living their second iteration, like the 18-footlong lobby sculpture made of rope and reclaimed pine by Rachel Mica Weiss and, behind the front desk, a textured piece by Jarrod Beck made of rubber recycled from a tornado-torn roof. 1hotels.com

DATE BOOK MEYER DAVIS
Will Meyer and Gray Davis have been dominating the design scene since 1999, when the pair connected to form the boutique firm Meyer Davis. Since then, they have taken on projects for Oscar de la Renta, been the force behind major hotel openings— including the Four Seasons—and recently won a James Beard Foundation Award for their work on Atlanta’s St. Cecilia restaurant. Late last year, the duo released their first book, Made to Measure: Meyer Davis, Architecture and Interiors, a deep dive into the studio’s inner workings and the spaces that define its aesthetic. As captured in the tome, Meyer and Davis’ global portfolio spans from Mexico City to New Orleans, but it’s the Big Apple they call home. “It’s been said many times before, but New York is the international capital of the world,” Meyer says. “Because of that, it has such an enhanced, vibrant design scene.” Here, the duo lead us on a tour of their favorite purveyors close to their home base. “We tend to select items and pieces from these particular stores because they have a bit of the whimsy we’re always seeking to add to the spaces we’re designing,” Davis says. meyerdavis.com 9 a.m. Meet us in our office, at 180 Varick St., so we can show you around before heading to breakfast at the Mercer Kitchen, a JeanGeorges restaurant. The booths and side tables along the windows in the upstairs cafe are a good spot for brunch meetings. 10 a.m. After breakfast, let’s go shopping for antiques and vintage items. Start at Wyeth, which is close to our office and has extensive midcentury pieces that are well-restored. Then head to Duane Modern, which tends to focus on beautiful antique collections. 12 p.m. Sit down to lunch at The Dutch. It is in the heart of SoHo and serves delicious regional fare in a lively, modern space. 2 p.m. Not far from there, pop into The Apartment by The Line. The store is housed in an apartment, so visitors walk
from room to room to discover lighting, furniture, accessories and clothing. Our favorite brands here include Luteca, Fritz Hansen, Gubi and Lasvit. 3 p.m. Go to David Weeks Studio’s TriBeCa storefront to view beautiful lighting fixtures, upholstered seating, side tables and sculptural objects. Then head a few blocks down to the unique Studio Oliver Gustav. His approach to interiors is artisanal and thoughtful, and he creates spaces that convey a quiet yet dramatic atmosphere. Afterward, pop next door to Tom Dixon to browse the full collection of products, including his famous pendant lights and furniture. 6 p.m. Stop by The Future Perfect; it’s one of the foremost platforms for collectible contemporary design. And make sure you have an appointment to visit Lindsey Adelman’s design studio, which is close by.
It is definitely worth seeing where she fabricates her beautiful light fixtures. 8 p.m. Enjoy dinner at Lure Fishbar on Mercer Street. It’s an upscale seafood restaurant famous for its luxury yacht-like interior and owned by our good friends and restaurateurs John McDonald and Josh Pickard. 9 p.m. End the night with drinks at The Blond, the fun little bar inside the 11 Howard hotel. It’s a unique space with dim lighting that creates an intimate, cozy environment.

HUBBARDTON FORGE
“
As a lighting designer, I should not be too focused on only the light fixture, but how that fixture interacts with the entire space, even if I don’t know what that space looks like.
” LED: LIGHTING THE FUTURE
An evolution in lighting design has taken place, incorporating new materials and technologies. Instead of retrofitting existing designs with LEDs, Hubbardton Forge has been developing designs specifically around the technology. To this end, the company has developed new initiatives, like using a local glassblower for many of its pieces and working with a local firm to develop LED components, thereby decreasing its environmental footprint. “We’re using LEDs in new and interesting ways,” Kitts says. “With our Möbius mini pendant, we were able to shape and form the light-guide element so that it becomes a sculptural aspect of the piece.”
1
When lighting the kitchen or bath, Hubbardton Forge’s director of design, David Kitts, has this one directive. “Select light fixtures that you love; not just like. The bathroom should be your own personal oasis, and your kitchen should be a place where friends and family gather.” Insightful advice from the design lead of America’s foremost luxury lighting manufacturer. Lighting sets the mood, so he suggests mini pendants in multiples over a kitchen island and a chandelier or pendant with dimmable light above the tub. “The pendants won’t interfere with the line of sight for guests or family in the kitchen, and the chandelier creates a spa-like atmosphere in the bath,” he continues. A true American success story, Hubbardton Forge is known for pushing the limits of form and materials to create handcrafted designs that meld the artistry and functionality of lighting. With 230 designers and makers, engineers and production team and staff, the HF team views the world through unique prisms as they create beautiful pieces. Take Kitts’ recent trip to Reykjavik, Iceland, where its street art opened his eyes to a new way of looking at lighting. “I was inspired not by the content or quality of the work, but how the art interacted and contributed to the space, the building and the neighborhood,” he says. “Walking past the same mural on a sunny day and then again on a stormy day could be two very different experiences.”

According to the team at Cosentino, when it comes to surface solutions, granite has always been popular, but more consumers are moving toward quartz for its array of colors, lower maintenance and higher durability. And when it comes to style, they’re seeing contemporary themes, including industrial (midcentury modern and coastal), that combine clean lines, built-ins and simple cabinetry. As innovators in the world of kitchens and baths, Cosentino should know. The global company offers the latest in surfacing solutions by staying at the forefront of trends and manufacturing technologies. With the widest array of color and material choices, the company stresses the importance of cohesiveness so everything works together in the completed space. “Think long term,” the team says. “ ‘Will you love that bold color in a few years?’ ‘If you sell your home, would your choices be appealing to other buyers?’ “ They also cite the importance of weighing your lifestyle as much as your style. “While it’s easy to make decisions based on looks alone, it’s important to think about how you use your space.” These answers inform everything from material choice to amenities one should include in their kitchen or bath.

STYLISH + SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS When you choose Cosentino products, you are getting the best on the market. Their advanced technical qualities, wide color options and 25-year warranty stand apart from the rest. For countertops, the new N-Boost advancement improves the color and luster of Silestone quartz, and makes it easier to clean than ever before. And while Dekton, the ultracompact surface with superior durability, isn’t new, Cosentino continues to create innovative color options that replicate the look of other materials. For energy efficiency and environmentally friendly products, Silestone’s ECO Line delivers with a series of colors made from up to 75-percent-recycled content, while Dekton Trillium is made from 60-percentrecycled content. Additionally, the company pays special attention to maintaining low emissions and a 98-percent reuse of water.

MIELE
“
We believe in clean lines and timeless elegance with user-friendly features and the highest quality materials for every type of cook. Harmonious design is also key, making sure everything aligns perfectly together in the kitchen.
Unique features, the latest innovations and harmonious design characterize the centuriesold kitchen appliance manufacturer Miele. Since its founding in 1899, the German-based innovator has remained true to its philosophy of “Immer Besser”, or forever better, forward-thinking, environmentally friendly kitchen designs with the added promise of superior quality, convenience and the most discerning attention to detail. “We want to ensure that our customers have peace of mind when choosing Miele for their appliance needs,” vice president of marketing Christian Schwarz says. As the kitchen continues to be the hub of the home and a central location for entertaining and living, Miele rises to the occasion with colored appliances, steam and induction options, and smart technology as the “connected” kitchen grows in prominence. One example of this technology is Miele’s innovative M Touch display, which can be found on its ranges and ovens. Fast, easy-to-use and self-explanatory, these appliances operate intuitively by simply pressing or swiping with your fingertip. Be sure to visit a Miele Experience Center to explore further or participate in a cooking class to learn more from the experts at Miele.

WOOD-MODE FINE CUSTOM CABINETRY
“
For 75 years, Wood-Mode has been producing high-quality cabinetry with time-honored techniques that blend timeless craftsmanship and functionality with a fashionforward approach to design.
”
For affluent homeowners and designers, Wood-Mode products are easily recognizable, from their wide variety of stains and finishes, to well-proportioned door styles and detailed moldings. But the high-end cabinetry manufacturer goes beyond the surface with smart features, such as motion technology for doors, unique storage solutions and integrated lighting, that increase the functional use of any space. “The integration of LED lighting into Wood-Mode cabinet interiors continues to evolve and will become more prevalent,” director of design John Troxell says. “Technology and design innovations have made former challenges, such as interior, recessed vertical lighting and drawer bank lighting, a standard option now.” When discussing trending styles, Troxell says transitional and contemporary looks continue, drawing on recycled materials or midcentury modern details to define the effect. No matter the style, the team at Wood-Mode agrees—cohesion is key. And when starting any renovation, they offer these tried-and-true tips: Do your homework; develop a wish list; establish a budget and a time frame; and collect images of rooms, features and products you like. Troxell adds, “A growing array of materials and finish applications will provide consumers and designers with greater possibilities to create kitchens and other rooms that are uniquely personal.”

WOOD-MODE ON … ILLUMINATION + INNOVATION Wealthy urban and suburban homeowners are increasing the square footage of their kitchens, combining multiple spaces into one large, open-concept area. This provides us with a lot of opportunities, including custom-made furniture like bookcases and desks, along with breakfast nooks and multipurpose islands. Designers and homeowners also have the option to select species and finishes that complement or contrast within their design. Other trends include interior lighting with integrated LED, under-cabinet and in-cabinet options. We continue to be inspired by advances in storage and functionality as well. And metal is making its mark, with stainless-steel countertops and metallic fronts for cabinets increasing in demand.

ZEPHYR
When asked to describe the philosophy behind Zephyr, company president Luke Siow says, “We strive to transform the kitchen through design, discovery and care. Through our products, design partnerships and innovative technology, we hope to elevate the kitchen as a center for self-expression, family and well-being.” Fait accompli for the foremost kitchen hood manufacturer, marking its 20th anniversary this year with a look back at the defining moments in the company’s history and its game-changing hoods. The first manufacturer to bring performance and power-driven ventilation to the kitchen, Zephyr made a name for itself with the introduction of its European-style chimney hoods. Since that time, the company has launched industry firsts such as its DCBL Suppression System®, and Bloom™ HD and BriteStrip™ LED products. Zephyr continues to break design barriers and give designers and consumers more options with its new Black Stainless Steel hoods with titanium coating; a sleek alternative to stainless steel. “Consumers believe that heightened design should be central in the kitchen, and are uncompromising when it comes to performance and quality,” Siow says. With thoughtful designs and an ongoing commitment to technological advancement, Zephyr elevated the kitchen hood from a purely utilitarian appliance to an eye-catching, artful centerpiece.

Zephyr continues to change the marketplace by blending form and function to create beautiful, high-quality hoods that are an asset to any home.

MARA SILBER
INTERIOR DESIGNER MARASILBER.COM
At first sight: I’m completely impressed with Oeuffice’s penchant for reimagining the classics: They manage to create sculptural works of art that are equally functional and versatile. On composition: It’s against this backdrop that the stools prove their inherent duality. They feel natural against the exposed brick but would also easily hold their own in both a formal or contemporary setting. As far as design goes… Italy really has no limits. These stools resonate with the country’s influential style in part because of the simple application of elegant, timeless materials; the Cipollino Apuano marble is super-sleek, the travertine is very porous, and the Rosa Perlino marble is full of movement. Each element is independently unassuming, but in union, striking works of art are born. Lasting impression: Refined, sculptural, bold, fresh and playful.
LX_COM14_Market_Spotlight.indd 146
5/16/17 12:49 PM
POST MATES THE PIECES: Ionik Stool and Tuskan Stool THE DESIGNER: Oeuffice FIND IT: mattermatters.com THE INSPIRATION: When Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte and Jakub Zak’s creativity united in 2011 to form their U.K.-based design laboratory, Oueffice, they challenged themselves to imagine limited-edition objects, that were reminiscent of utopian ideals and innovation. Enter the Ionik and Tuskan stools, both part of a second coming of the studio’s Kapital collection and based on primitive stone columns resonant with classical architecture. Handcrafted in Italy using solid-stone blocks, they are modern in aesthetic and scale but maintain the integrity of their inspirational era—an edgy balance very much in line with the contemporary duo’s manifesto.

PALETTE PLEASER THE PIECE: Spring Lamp in Irish Green THE DESIGNER: Mathieu Lehanneur FIND IT: carpentersworkshopgallery.com THE INSPIRATION: Paris-based designer/artist/science enthusiast Mathieu Lehanneur dreamed up the Spring lamp, alongside its counterparts from the Spring series, with the intention of transporting design lovers to a land of natural and ecological metamorphosis. Lehanneur’s aim to create eye-catching objects that examine nature’s poetic side is realized in this delicate lighting fixture, comprised of a bundle of hand-blown, ribbed-glass tubes in a rich green marble base. Along with other materials from the series, both the marble and glass were incorporated into the piece in their natural color and condition— inciting a primitive moment in an otherwise distinctly modern piece.
LX_COM14_Market_Spotlight.indd 148
OLIVER M. FURTH INTERIOR DESIGNER OLIVERMFURTH.COM
At first sight: There’s a wonderful sense of fluidity to this light fixture, almost like water that’s lit from within. Artist to artist: In my own work, I’m constantly trying to push the design dialogue forward, and this piece falls in that special spot between design and sculpture. Lehanneur is playing with our preconceived notions of what a lamp is and propelling those ideas a little further. It’s important… To know the rules before you break them. Here, the artist is clearly informed about design, which is why any risks taken clearly paid off. Global musings: As our world becomes larger, it’s increasingly important to look inward and become more focused. For example, I try to figure out what an area offers that’s specific to that place, whether woven silk textiles in Laos or innovative lighting in Paris. I am always on the hunt for the offbeat and the unusual. The French… Have been innovators in decorative arts since AndréCharles Boulle’s then-groundbreaking furniture in the 17th century, and I think Lehanneur is definitely following in the footsteps of his countrymen. Lasting impression: This design is sculptural, graceful, fluid, lyrical and dynamic.
5/16/17 12:49 PM
CRATE MATTERS THE PIECE: P2 Lavinia Exagonal Armchair THE DESIGNER: Lazzarini & Pickering for Marta Sala Éditions FIND IT: thefutureperfect.com THE INSPIRATION: A second collaboration between noted Italian architect Marta Sala and Roman architectural studio Lazzarini & Pickering brings us the P2 Lavinia Exagonal armchair, a showstopper from Marta Sala Éditions’ Collection No – 2. Shown in a sumptuous Pierre Frey fabric, the seat’s striking shape and seductive proportions incite immediate interest. One would expect no less from this power collab, but there is still something to be said about a design that equally prizes comfort and allure. And in the case of the P2 Lavinia: Mission accomplished.
LEO PARRELLA
INTERIOR DESIGNER LEOPARRELLA.COM
At first sight: The Lavania Exagonal armchair is incredibly modern and reminiscent of Italian furniture from the 1960s and ’70s—a fitting result from this pairing of industry leaders. The piece is as smart from behind as it is straight on, and the exacting lines are both gorgeous and unapologetic. As a first-generation Italian… I may be biased, but I feel that Italy is the undisputed leader in design. Be it automobiles or architecture, furniture or fashion, the legacy of our people is bold, thoughtful design, and this piece is clearly Italian-born. Global gatherers: The hunt and find is one of the more thrilling parts of what I get to do with interiors. Pieces collected from around the world add that transportive element of a life welllived. And an international piece with heritage or a good story gives a sense of being collected rather than assembled. Lasting impression: This striking seat reads as stylish, architectural, luxurious and dramatic.

SEND AND DELIVER THE PIECES: Mali Vases and Jethi Vases THE DESIGNER: Jaimal Odedra FIND IT: maisongerard.com THE INSPIRATION: Moved by the melodious rhythm of bamboo forests, decorated fashion vet Jaimal Odedra set out to explore a new medium with his Mali and Jethi vases. Using bronze in the traditional sand-casting technique, the vases are handmade by artisans in Morocco, and though Odedra visualizes each form and silhouette, the life of each piece is organically determined by the skilled hands that shape it—resulting in one-of-a-kind mini masterpieces.
CONSUELO PIERREPONT AND KATIE SPALDING INTERIOR DESIGNERS SWAY-STUDIO.COM
At first sight: Jaimal’s pieces exude a dramatic subtlety and a relaxed-luxe nature. They’re extremely elevated and yet artisanal all at once. We are really drawn… To the versatility of these beautiful objects. They are such unique designs but don’t have an obvious provenance, in the best way possible. In design, culture and spirit… Morocco is perpetually inspiring with its use of colors, shapes and the effortless ability to seamlessly blend everything together. While these vases are a more modern interpretation of these traits, they embody the country’s unmistakable mélange of the organic and the well-crafted. Global musings: Nothing adds layers like sourcing from around the world. Our clients want to know the stories that are attached to a piece; they want us to use pieces that tell a part of their story. Jaimal’s works seem to do just that. Lasting impression: Fluid, effortless and memorable.

At first sight: The Celestial bowls are the perfect fusion of traditional forms with modernized midcentury ideals. While the shapes are evocative of ancient pottery, the studded embellishments are extremely current and pack an edgy punch. Ceramics (and Tulum for that matter) are… Having a huge moment, which makes Elad’s latest collection even more special and relevant. It’s really lovely to see regions with a long-standing relationship to these materials and techniques making a mark on contemporary design. The resulting pieces always seem to have the most integrity. At home: I imagine these objects functioning beautifully as both decor and utilitarian objects. I’m already picturing filling them with fruit or creating an unexpected floral arrangement. Lasting impressing: The Celestial bowls are modern, punk, classical and statement-making.

CASED GOODS THE PIECES: Celestial Bowl on Stand in Gold + Green and Celestial Bowl on Stand in Gold + Black THE DESIGNER: Elad Yifrach FIND IT: l-objet.com THE INSPIRATION: Elad Yifrach, the mastermind behind lifestyle brand L’Objet, fell in love with Tulum, Mexico, the moment his senses connected with the town’s lustrous and unparalleled warmth and energy. This beachy nook along the Yucatan Peninsula and its storied history inspired a collection of earthy, charmingly desaturated and understated yet elegant pieces. The Celestial bowls, especially, speak to Yifrach’s devotion to Tulum’s vibrancy and aesthetic: a little bit wild but nevertheless the pinnacle of authenticity.

WHITE GLOVE THE PIECE: The Man Ray Glass Leaf Mirror THE DESIGNER: Cox London FIND IT: rosetarlow.com THE INSPIRATION: After years of creative collaboration and a mutual affinity for the decorative arts, design duo Christopher and Nicola Cox officially joined forces in 2005 with the launch of their London studio. Ever since then, they have been producing exquisite and original pieces—the Man Ray mirror being no exception. A love letter to 19th-century French Dieppe bone mirrors, the Man Ray is a striking blend of handpulled ivory glass leaves, carved silver gilt wood and hand-silvered mirror plate, and embodies the very vision of its creators: designs that are rich in technique and timelessness.
MAX HUMPHREY INTERIOR DESIGNER MAXHUMPHREY.COM
At first sight: This showstopper of a mirror appeals to me in that it is extremely delicate but commanding of your attention—a true statement piece indeed. It also speaks to the fabulousness of Cox London as a company. Add Rose Tarlow’s stamp of approval and I’m sold. As an Anglophile… With a lifelong obsession for all things British—pop music, movies, art and design—this mirror epitomizes the U.K. tradition of things not always being what they seem. At first, I thought it was comprised of a million little shark teeth à la Damien Hirst’s renowned tiger shark in formaldehyde sculpture, which like this mirror, doesn’t fully register until staring it right in the face. On composition: I love the contrast of this fragile piece dwelling in an industrial space, when one would normally anticipate it living in a traditional environment. Lasting impression: This mirror is delicate, intricate, beautiful and unexpected.

However, the space—featuring a customizable cabinet system designed by Piero Lissoni for Boffi with black granite countertops and appliances from Gaggenau, Miele and Sub-Zero—is in fact ensconced in one of The Mark’s Premier Three-Bedroom Suites in New York City.

VENICE, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES DESIGN BACKGROUND: When a home-essentials brand with the perfect formula for fluffy towels debuts a luxury hotel, you know it’s time to book your next getaway. Such is the case for The Parachute Hotel—designed by Scott Horne and Peter Dolkas— which invites guests to experience the Parachute lifestyle (and perhaps, most importantly, its genius bedding and bath textiles) firsthand. DETAILS TO LOVE: This bathroom received the same careful attention as any bespoke residential project, with furnishings from “like-minded vendors, makers and local friends of the brand,” says Horne. Stump stools by Kalon, for instance, keep Parachute’s signature towels within easy reach. theparachutehotel.com

DETAILS TO LOVE: Seaside style ripples throughout this planked-wall space, which features a palette of high-gloss white and nautical-inspired finishes like Waterworks faucets in polished, unlacquered brass. Custom sconces with leaded milk glass shades contrast with the crisp blue of hand-painted Portuguese tile murals that depict the ocean and impart a sense of voyage to the shower. greydonhouse.com 182 / luxesource.com

WONDER WALL
For this New Canaan entrance, a crisp white backdrop provides the connective tissue between the home’s classic Colonial bones and its minimalist styling—a subtle homage by Amanda Martocchio and Gary Cruz to the region’s strong tradition of midcentury modernism. 1 / Great Plains: Dodge the flat white effect by sticking to expansive, well-illuminated spaces for your pale color treatment. The bright natural light in this generous entry helps the room feel animated. 2 / Opposites Attract: Is there anything more sophisticated than pairing light and dark elements? Opting for crisp white molding against much darker wood floors creates high-contrast style and brings a contemporary flair to a traditional combination. 3 / Show and Tell: There’s a reason monochromatic galleries set the standard for displaying artwork: Only these unembellished walls could do true justice to a massive work by James Siena, called When I Was Ten. 4 / Soft Pedal: Introduce more coziness into your restrained space with lush textiles, like the lavender-hued Zimmer + Rohde fabric on this ottoman by Jean-Michel Wilmotte and a custom wool-and-hemp rug with a silk border, designed by Cruz.

STAR QUALITY A SIMPLE BACKDROP PROVES PERFECT FOR SHOW-STOPPING FURNISHINGS AND AVANT-GARDE ARTWORK, ALLOWING EVERY INTRICATE DETAIL TO SHINE. Modern artwork and daring furniture find a surprising place in this historic Manhattan home, originally designed by architect Clarence True at the turn of the century. Here, refreshing white beautifully stages the inspired selections of Lucien Rees Roberts and Deborah Hancock. 1 / Equal Measure: Play with a monochromatic palette when incorporating show-stealing pieces. The subdued layering of white, beige and inky black brings harmony to these diverse furnishings—from the hide-covered Harvey Probber armchair to the velvet B&B Italia sofas. 2 / High Shine: Metallic decor accents gleam against stark white thanks to their reflective nature. Jean de Merry’s Lumière chandelier, for instance, practically sparkles while adding to the room’s sculptural interest. 3 / New Ground: Flooring choice proves just as crucial when displaying your museumworthy designs from the ground up. A silk carpet by Revis Studio in this space acts like a halo around a stunning, architectural coffee table. 4 / Heat Wave: Make your fireplace measure up to your forward-looking decor with a modular surround. Cutting a sharp profile against the white walls, a new stone fireplace feels apropos amongst the room’s angular silhouettes. THE DESIGN TEAM:

Designers Mary Foley and Michael Cox restored an illustrious Park Avenue apartment to its former glory, as evidenced in the polished style of this grand dining room that balances white-wall simplicity with cultivated features. 1 / Classic Contours: Infuse formal elegance into your plain walls with some stepped molding. Added here along the walls and ceiling, the molding creates rectilinear details that play well with more contemporary finishes. 2 / Raw Refined: True white can feel frigid without a touch of warm materials—a coupling employed to stunning effect in this dining room with its wideplank walnut flooring, laid out in a diagonal pattern for an extra dose of dimension. 3 / Blue Crush: A bit of blue can turn simple white into a sophisticated statement. Case in point: These Berman Rosetti Grid dining chairs boast a mix of navy hues thanks to their smooth Holly Hunt fabric on the front side of the seats and a Paul Smith Bespoke Stripe on the outer backs. 4 / Fancy Free: Cut the potential primness of your well-dressed space with a bit of playfulness. Instead of the obligatory gilded fixture, this custom Cloud chandelier by Apparatus adds whimsy while not disturbing the room’s lightness.

FLIGHT OF FANCY Modern technology has put inspiration at our fingertips, dissolving traditional boundaries and making even the most remote pockets of the planet feel within reach. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the world of design, where at any given moment, creatives have access to a virtual library of beautiful images and products from around the globe without ever having to leave home. While armchair travel is a lovely way to kill a few hours, sometimes it’s necessary to put down that smartphone, hop on a plane and go see the sights firsthand. After all, there’s no comparison to experiencing the architecture of Marrakesh or Shanghai in person. To that end, we recruited a few of our favorite industry experts to share some of their top international spots for design lovers.

MARRAKESH EXPRESS
One look at her iconic line of carpets and textiles, and you can see the Moroccan inspiration behind Madeline Weinrib’s work. The New York-based designer has been making annual pilgrimages to Marrakesh for nearly 20 years. Below, she presents her top recommendations for shopping and sustenance. madelineweinrib.com
PLACES TO SHOP:
PLACES TO EAT:
33 RUE MAJORELLE Like a smaller version of the legendary Parisian boutique Colette, this open-concept shop just opposite the Majorelle Garden is stocked with an expertly curated collection of clothes, jewelry and art by local designers.
DAR YACOUT Designed by Bill Willis, the late American architect and decorator who helped put Marrakesh on the style map, this dining spot serves a set menu amid dramatic decor. Plan ahead; reservations are a must.
ALNOUR Located in the medina, or old city, this workshop and store is a social enterprise for handicapped women who are skilled in the art of embroidery. They sell exquisite, handmade linens for the home, as well as clothing. EL FENN BOUTIQUE With its impressive art collection and drop-dead gorgeous interiors, El Fenn, from Vanessa Branson, Virgin mogul Richard Branson’s sister, is one of the most stylish stays in the medina. Now, it features an adjoining boutique with an array of wonderful home goods, which can be shipped globally. I’ve collaborated with them on a collection of pillows, and all proceeds from sales benefit a foundation that teaches women to weave in the Atlas Mountains.
LX_COM14_TheReport.indd 180
NOMAD RESTAURANT With a modern menu that features fresh salads, Nomad is my favorite place for lunch in the medina. The café has a lovely terrace that overlooks “spice square,” where you can view all the exotic spice vendors. Bonus: They take craft cocktails seriously here. LALLA French owner Laetitia Trouillet crafts chic handbags—think studded leather clutches—and accessories at this boutique in the hip Guéliz district. Her bags, scarves and headbands make wonderful gifts for friends back home.
DAR MOHA This restaurant was once the home of French designer Pierre Balmain. I like to sit by the pool, but all the rooms are charming. There is a set menu with many courses of Moroccan food, so be prepared for a feast.
MAISON DU KAFTAN Perhaps no article of clothing conjures images of Morocco quite like the free-flowing kaftan. Also located in the medina, this store is stocked with versions of the garment in all colors, styles and price ranges.
BELDI COUNTRY CLUB If you need a peaceful respite from the commotion of the souk, you can’t beat this place for a leisurely swim or a spa treatment. Grab a French-style lunch by the pool—the salade nicoise is divine!

ARTFUL LODGER Jasper Conran has designed women’s fashion, menswear, accessories and home goods, but he’s never attached his name and aesthetic to a hotel—until now. L’Hôtel Marrakech is the British designer’s first foray into luxury lodging. “Opening a hotel has brought together all that I enjoy working on the most: food, textiles, interiors and gardens,” he says. Located in a 19th-century riad (a traditional Moroccan dwelling with an interior courtyard) in the heart of the medina, the otherworldly retreat combines modern-day amenities with oldfashioned glamour. “Marrakesh is a city of amazing contrasts where one can wander along dark alleys and emerge into exquisite gardens and beautiful courtyards,” he says. “I wanted to make L’Hôtel Marrakech a comfortable home, where people feel immediately welcome and happy.” l-hotelmarrakech.com
3 a la mode A half century ago, the desert city of Marrakesh cast a spell over fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent, forever influencing his work. To honor that legacy, the long-awaited Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech, designed by Studio KO, will open its doors in October. Located on the street bearing his name near the Jardin Marjorelle—the legendary garden that he and longtime partner Pierre Bergé saved from development in 1980—the museum will feature permanent and rotating exhibitions as well as a library, café and restaurant. “This city deeply influenced Yves’ life and work, particularly his discovery of color,” says Bergé. “The Studio KO architects share this passion for Marrakesh and their clean, uncluttered style recalls his work.”

4 HALLO BERLIN!
German architect Gisbert Pöppler has crafted sophisticated, jewel-box spaces throughout Berlin during his 20-year career. Over the years, he’s cultivated a number of favorite haunts throughout the art-centric city. Below, he shares a few picks. gisbertpoeppler.com
Emperor Wilhelm II, and its garden is a calming hideaway in the middle of the city.
8:30 a.m. I love starting the day with breakfast in the Wintergarten café at Literaturhaus Berlin. The villa was built in 1889, during the reign of
2 p.m. I stop by Trouvé-Berlin for a little treasure hunting. This vintage furniture store is dedicated to French and Italian design of the 20th century.
10 a.m. Head to Berlinische Galerie (shown above), a new museum whose primary collection is composed of art produced in the city, spanning from 1870 to present-day. 12 p.m. Hunger strikes, so I pop into Salumeria Lamuri, a casual Italian restaurant located in the Kreuzberg neighborhood. It’s my favorite intimate spot for a satisfying lunch with a good glass of wine.
5
3 p.m. For treasure of a different sort, visit René Talmon l’Armée’s shop. The jewelry designer makes beautiful pieces using 18-karat gold, oxidized silver and naturally colored diamonds. 4 p.m. To get a sense of Berlin’s decadence in the 1920s, check out the museum at the LiebermannVilla. German painter Max Liebermann’s old summer residence by Lake Wannsee holds many of the artist’s paintings and has an impressive garden. 7 p.m. Briefmarken Weine is a low-key wine bar that occupies a former East German storefront— its neon sign “Briefmarken” translates to “stamps.” With amazing pasta, antipasto and wine, it’s the perfect spot to end the day.
AGAINST THE GRAIN
File this one under happy accidents: Cologne-based designer Meike Harde was staining fabric when some of the pigment spilled onto her wooden worktop, leaving streaks of bold color to run along the grain of the surface. In that moment, her Wooden Aquarelle project was born. Based on a technique once used by German Expressionist painters, Harde’s process of applying color to wood is random, so no two panels are alike. With their intense hues and soft transitions, the panels resemble dreamy, hypnotic watercolors. When applied to furnishings, like the triangular nesting tables seen here, the effect is mesmerizing. meikeharde.com

LOCAL FLAVOR Nearly 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the German city has enjoyed a renewed reputation as a decadent and cosmopolitan hub for the international art and design scene, and many of its unique hotels reflect that vibe. Here, we present four urban retreats that cater to individualized style.
EDGY LUXURY ECLECTIC AND PLAYFUL 25HOURS HOTEL BIKINI BERLIN Housed in a former 1950s high-rise, this hotel’s youthful vibe comes from the whimsical interiors of German designer Werner Aisslinger. Bicycles dangle from the lobby’s ceiling and hammocks hang in rooms overlooking the city zoo, providing the perfect perch for checking out the wildlife. 25hours-hotels.com
SOHO HOUSE BERLIN The charmingly worn concrete walls of this late-Bauhaus landmark building create an industrial backdrop for uberluxe features such as an impressive art collection with works by Damien Hirst and a swank roof deck, all courtesy of the in-house design team. sohohouseberlin.com

DAS STUE With its grand lobby and classical stone staircase, this hotel makes a jaw-dropping first impression. The sophisticated interiors by internationally renowned Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola include colorful accent pieces and eye-catching artwork. das-stue.com

SHANGHAI SURPRISE
There’s no shortage of personality in Jamie Drake’s glamorous, modern, color-saturated interiors. It shouldn’t come as a surprise, then, that the celebrated New York designer also has a reputation for being quite the bon vivant. What better insider to share his idea of a perfect day in the cosmopolitan city of Shanghai? drakeanderson.com 7:30 a.m. Rise and shine at The Peninsula hotel located right on The Bund, the famed waterfront promenade. Enjoy the view of the new city of Pudong across the Huangpu River. From here, I can see the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, an awesome 1,535-foot spire that looks like it came right off the pages of a futuristic comic book. 8:30 a.m. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in the lobby, the hotel’s airy and spacious hub. The smoked salmon with a single scrambled egg is perfect, and the breads and pastries from the buffet are hard to resist; though, I do try to limit myself. 10 a.m. I always make time after breakfast for a relaxed morning walk along The Bund to admire the city. It’s a good way to get revved up for the day ahead, and it’s the best time to avoid the massive crowds that descend on the area at

lunchtime. With so many different types of buildings, the neighborhood is a living museum of architectural styles. 12:30 p.m. Off to the Longhua Pagoda and Temple. It features a vegetarian restaurant, which is quite common for an active Buddhist temple. The superb main course is a soup bowl filled with carefully prepared garden delights and noodles. In the nearby entry area, school children learn how to make dumplings. 2 p.m. After lunch, tour the pagoda and temple with one of the monks as a guide. The multiple buildings are filled with spectacular carved and gilded deities. I’m in awe of one of the halls in particular; it’s filled with 500 golden statues. My kind of army—peace-loving and glittering! 3 p.m. Check out more furniture showrooms in the design district around Jiangning Road. Some of the wares are eye-poppingly over-the-top, but there are a few quieter, modern offerings as well. 5:30 p.m. Sneak back to the hotel for a muchneeded rest and pre-dinner nap. 8 p.m. If you grow weary of Asian food, opt for French food at the sensational bistro Franck, located in the French Concession neighborhood.
By this time, a martini up with a twist is sorely needed, and much enjoyed. When I’m there, I order a traditional Gallic meal and wash it down with a light Beaujolais. For dessert: rich and decadent chocolate mousse. 10:45 p.m. Lights out—until the next time. Xie Xie!

INSIDE STORY For over 20 years, Kerry Phelan has been a leading force in the Melbourne design scene, creating elegant spaces that are understated but luxurious. Here, she gives us the scoop on her effortlessly hip hometown. kpdo.com
What quality makes Melbourne design unique? Melbourne has a different feel than Sydney. It has a colder climate, and it’s moodier; whereas, Sydney is all about the sunshine and the harbor. Our design always nods to our natural environment. Why do you think the city is having a moment? The influx of a lot of new restaurants, cafés and bars has given designers a chance to be more adventurous. Also, the residential property market is extremely competitive—developers not only employ designers as a marketing tool, but also to promote a Melbourne lifestyle. Finally, there’s Instagram, which is creating its own, universal visual language, bringing Australian design to an international audience.
DRAMATIC TURN Sydney designer Greg Natale, known for his fondness of bold colors and geometric patterns, has won international acclaim for his tailored, sophisticated interiors. Read on for his take on design in the land down under. gregnatale.com What sets Australian design apart? I think our geography has helped to create our own “international” style. We’re influenced by our traditional European roots, but we also admire the creativity and industriousness of America. Factor in our proximity to Asia and our mild climate, and you can see how Australian design has evolved into its own thing.
the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which is next to the Royal Botanic Gardens, or the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, which is nestled on the shores of Sydney Harbor. It may sound clichéd, but if you’re ever in town, you must visit the Sydney Opera House to see a show and take in the amazing architecture by Jørn Utzon.
Favorite Aussie designers past and present: I am a big admirer of the late architect Harry Seidler. His work was ahead of its time and his career spanned many decades. His projects weren’t always warmly received, but his provocative work defined a style and an era of Australian architecture.
Dream project: I would love to try my hand at a private jet—who wouldn’t! There’s a challenge in creating a chic interior with so many restrictions on space and functionality.
Must-see sites when visiting Sydney: As an art lover, I always make sure to drop into
LX_COM14_TheReport.indd 201
Favorite local design brands: Chris Connell Design is brilliant for all things furniture, product, interiors and architecture; he’s been a driving force over the last 25 years for original design. And Bruce Rowe from Anchor Ceramics does phenomenal sculpture and planter vessels.
Up next: I recently launched a collection of decorative glass mosaic tiles with Italian brand Bisazza. I also did a new collection of hand-knotted Tibetan wool and silk rugs, and I’ve got new housewares out later this year.

INTERIOR DESIGNER TIM CRONEBERGER SERVES UP HIS BEST TIPS FOR MAKING GUESTS FEEL AT HOME. PHOTOGRAPHY BY TRIA GIOVAN
5/31/17 6:03 PM
Light fixtures from Apparatus (left) illuminate the kitchen prep area at the home of interior designer Tim Croneberger (shown opposite with his friend’s dog, Mollie). Rachael Ray Home stoneware (below) provides the perfect place setting for a casual yet still elegant brunch on the kitchen table, which is surrounded by vintage Paul McCobb chairs (bottom).
Summer in the Hamptons can be summed up in three words—sun, beach and, of course, entertaining. Taking the latter to heart, interior designer Tim Croneberger of Halcyon Design and his partner, Glenn Finn, often play hosts throughout the season, throwing everything from 100-person outdoor dinner parties to lazy Sunday morning brunches. Here, Croneberger explains how he keeps his guests coming back year after year. Comfort is key. We’ve made a conscious choice in our home to maintain interiors that aren’t too precious. There’s no space that
doesn’t beg for you to curl up or stretch out. Sisal rugs mask sand that’s tracked in and cotton canvas and linens are the best protection against wet bathing suits. Cowhide throw rugs are also great as they have a natural oil that repels stains. Create a welcoming mood. Guest rooms should have the same amenities as one would expect in a fine hotel—and then some. The bedside table should always have fresh-cut flowers and bottled water, and I like to frame a picture of the guest and I together from a fun time we shared. luxesource.com / 217

Nothing says summer quite like palm prints and surfboards. Croneberger covered the walls of his cabana bathroom in a tropical banana leaf wallpaper from Seabrook; the original Christopher Makos surfboard adds another layer of fun.
Use what’s in bloom. I always decorate with hydrangeas—they’re overflowing throughout the property. I’ll cut 30 or 40 stems and put them in vases all over the house. I also love adding whatever is in season from the farmers’ market, such as peonies and ranunculus. Sprigs of privet when it’s in bloom are really fragrant and are great in bathrooms or on those bedside tables. Cook together. I love piling in the kitchen with everyone, drinking Wölffer Estate’s Summer in a Bottle rosé and prepping for dinner—our go-to summer meal is usually grilled flank steak with a ground coffee rub. Also, put on some good music; it provides a soundtrack that brings back memories as soon as you hear a certain song, and then everyone enjoys pitching in. Have a go-to dish. We’ve become known for our “country scramble” Sunday-morning breakfasts, which are comprised of leftovers from the night before. It’s a big egg scramble with herbs, diced potatoes, extra cuts of meat and some grated cheese from last night’s cocktail hour. Pair that with a Bloody Mary bar and a mimosa station and you’re pretty much everyone’s favorite host. 218 / luxesource.com

3 FAMILY TIME Why a renovation? The original tasting room was the vision of my father, and the old-world charm that you found there reflected his European heritage. When my brother, Marc, and I took over, we wanted the winery to reflect our own design aesthetic—a comfortable but stylish space yet one that still honors our father’s heritage. What were some of the more important modifications? We changed the floors from Spanish terra cotta to all wood. Also, two long high-top tables with family seating and two

BEACH VIBES
Mabley Handler, the husband-wife interior design team of Jennifer Mabley and Austin Handler has released a locally inspired 35-piece furniture collection with Kravet. From products named after such notable East End locations as Flying Point and Hayground to beach-inspired materials including grass cloth and oakwood finishes, the culture of the Hamptons is at the heart of the collection. The furniture line centers around the idea of relaxed entertaining, and the Water Mill residents didn’t need to look further than their own backyard for inspiration. “In the summer, we often have friends over and we lounge for hours,” says Handler. “It’s so fun not to have a specific agenda. The entertaining is based around the company, not the meal.” mableyhandler.com
leather banquettes were installed, as well as a wall of windows offering expanded views of the vines. My personal favorite is a “family room” area with leather chairs, rugs, throws and family photos. All of these touches create the sense that you’re in our family’s living room. How is the new space more in line with the vision you have for Wölffer? What I’m focused on is infusing a more youthful voice, even a whimsical lifestyle, through design and art. 139 Sagg Rd., Sagaponack, 631.537.5106; wolffer.com

RJD GALLERY OPENS A NEW SPACE—AND A NEW CHAPTER—IN BRIDGEHAMPTON. RJD Gallery was in the perfect location—right next to the legendary Sag Harbor Cinema. But when the cinema’s fire destroyed the building, the gallery had to rethink its future, which included a move to Bridgehampton. “We knocked out walls, put in new floors and lights, and created a place that really reflects the high quality of the art,” says owner Richard Demato. Collectors can now explore four gallery spaces to easily discover pieces such as Jacques Le Bescond’s Clair Obscur (left). “Before you saw so much at once,” says gallery director Eve Gianni Corio. “It was overwhelming.” On view in July and August: “Girl Next Door,” with works by Rachel Moseley and Katie O’Hagan, and Andrea Kowch’s “Into the Wind.” 2385 Main St., Bridgehampton, 631.725.1161; rjdgallery.com

Go-to style: Contemporary. My home has exterior walls built of 18-inchthick granite and five skylights composing the roof. Any current building trends? For high-end residences, it is, without question, modern. Take a drive down Dune Road and you’ll see. Tell us about your wildest project. A renovation and addition called the “Round House.” It was originally designed by midcentury architect Richard Foster as his own home. The interior continuously rotates 360 degrees.
What’s your most beloved Hampton’s hamlet? Definitely Sagaponack. The area still has this rural feeling where farmland meets the ocean. Favorite house you’ve built: A family compound in Bridgehampton designed to have multiple structures unfold across the site. Name the most unusual project you’ve done. A sports barn designed to be reminiscent of a historic potato barn, a nod to the history of the region and site.

What current building trends are you seeing now in the Hamptons? Our younger clientele wants clean, bright and white, with lots of glass to bring the outside in and the inside out. Favorite style: Our modern barn concept provides us with lots of excitement as each year we create more architecture in that style. Are there any building materials you are excited about? Green materials. For example, Boral is a wood synthetic— it’s very green and doesn’t, burn, rot or get eaten by termites.
Favorite style: None in particular. The house should fit into its surroundings, which is why I love many of the cottages in the Hamptons. Are there any building materials on your radar? Alaskan yellow cedar. It’s long been used on exteriors, but it’s also great for interiors since it mills beautifully and takes stains well. What’s the most unusual project you’ve worked on? An underground tunnel from a guesthouse to a main house that was also the home of the wine cellar.
Most challenging project you’ve done: Our own home. With a teen lounge (complete with a rock-climbing wall), a bowling alley and a full spa, the details were mind-numbing! Favorite Hamptons style: A Shingle-style house finished in a silvery gray is my favorite Hamptons look. I also love the look of floor-to-ceiling windows and natural finishes. Where are you the happiest? Bridgehampton is where we live, but Montauk is where we relax. Sunrises, bonfires and flip flops: that says summer to me!

Do you have a favorite style? No, I don’t have a favorite. I just care that the architecture is good. Current building trends: Sustainability. Homes need to be energy-efficient and built to last. Tell us about your most unique project. A “fishing shack” as part of a major compound. The husband was an avid fisherman but his wife strongly objected to having fresh fish cleaned in the kitchen. We helped build a subterranean cave in which there was a full kitchen.
11 TABLE FARM TO
The Amagansett Farmers Market has been a landmark in the Hamptons for generations. But the fate of the beloved Saturday morning institution has always been in question—until now. Katie Baldwin (shown left, at right) and Amanda Merrow of Amber Waves Farm have been tilling the 9.3 acres of wheat surrounding the Amagansett Farmers Market since 2009. But they were only renting the land, and the market itself has undergone a few different tenants. This year, however, through a collaboration between Baldwin and Merrow, the Peconic Land Trust, and the owner of the land and market, Margaret de Cuevas, Amber Waves Farm purchased the land and the building, officially becoming the keeper of

the flame. “This will limit 80% of the property to food production,” explains John Halsey, founder and president of the Peconic Land Trust, “ensuring the land will forever be accessible to future farmers.” So, that means if Baldwin and Merrow decided to stop farming, the land would have to be sold to another farmer. Amber Waves Farms will offer their own fresh produce as well as the artisanal delights of all their friends on the Hamptons foodie scene. In the future, Baldwin and Merrow plan to cook food on-site and offer educational programming. “That’s critical to our mission,” says Baldwin. “We can be an avenue to promote the farmstand ethos of locally grown and sourced items.” 367 Main St., Amagansett, 631.527.5688

ARTS EDUCATION TWO DECADES AGO, AFTER STUDYING ABROAD IN ITALY, LAUREN GRENNING OPENED GRENNING GALLERY IN SAG HARBOR. THIS YEAR THE GALLERY CELEBRATES ITS 20-YEAR ANNIVERSARY. What were your hopes when you opened? The gallery was inspired by the desire to show the amazing artists that I’d met and to build a life on the East End. After studying in Florence, I felt very strongly that the world needed to see what was happening there. Has anything surprised you about running a gallery? I was pleased, but not surprised, that I found a critical mass of clients that shared my awe in the paintings and the sculptures. The most surprising thing, though, is that we created a community of painters and patrons that extends around the world. Are there any exhibitions that you are most excited about this summer? I am thrilled to be showing Nelson H. White in early July and Ben Fenske on July 29. Nelson was my mentor when I returned from Asia in 1995 and then in 1996, and it was his advice that led me to Italy. Ben is the painter’s painter, and one of the finest young artists of this generation. 17 Washington St., Sag Harbor, 631.725.8469; grenninggallery.com
Tell us about the juxtaposition of historic and modern in the space and the effect that has on aesthetic. The space is iconic, and we plan to retain the integrity of the structure and accentuate its interior features with vignettes that include an eclectic mix of modern, vintage and traditional pieces that speak to the classic Hamptons aesthetic—with a twist! Why Southampton? This is a great way to stay top-of-mind with a really key audience for our brand. Between the residents and the number of visitors the area attracts, we are excited to be engaging with our core customers.
How can your clients work with designers? We’ll offer complimentary services through The Studio at One Kings Lane, our in-house design team. Appointments are bookable online. Customers answer questions about their project and are matched with a designer. The designers can handle anything from designing a table to decorating the whole house. 91 Coopers Farm Rd., Southampton; onekingslane.com

Eleven Madison Park—whose extensive accolades include three Michelin stars, four stars from The New York Times and six James Beard Foundation awards—is summering in East Hampton. With the Manhattan restaurant currently closed for renovations, Chef Daniel Humm and Restaurateur Will Guidara decided to create EMP Summer House, a relaxed reimagining of their renowned restaurant. “While we take what we do very seriously, we don’t take ourselves nearly as seriously,” says Guidara. “We are intense in our pursuit of excellence, but we also love to have fun. We’re excited to show that side of our personality.” 341 Pantigo Rd., East Hampton; empsummerhouse.tocktix.com

“This home features an open floor plan that’s made for entertaining,” observes broker Mala Sander of this mint-condition house set on a sprawling 1.2 acres. Indeed, a custom kitchen with marble countertops and top-of-the-line appliances makes cooking for a crowd a breeze, and a generous island is the perfect space to congregate and enjoy a glass of wine, no doubt selected from the wine cellar downstairs. “There’s also plenty of room for all your guests,” she adds, “with three levels of living space including an expansive master suite and four additional guest suites.” Why we love it: Step out into the expansive country-like backyard and you’ll feel like you’ve truly left the city behind. $5,995,000; 223 Church Lane, Bridgehampton; corcoran.com Broker: Mala Sander.

19 POOLSIDE LIVING
ARCHITECTS AND DESIGNERS ARE TAKING POOL HOUSES IN THE HAMPTONS TO THE NEXT LEVEL. WRITTEN BY SHANNON SHARPE / PHOTOGRAPHY BY JOSHUA MCHUGH
In the Hamptons, a pool house is a standard amenity, but in the past, they’ve often been used as a cabana—and not much more. “Popular designs used to be very cookiecutter,” says architect Blaze Makoid, who designed the pool house shown here as a part of an overall home project in East Hampton. “Many of these structures weren’t really being used because that type of design didn’t really match their needs.” But things are changing, and nowadays, people are more carefully considering how a pool house can add another layer to the home and work well with the family’s lifestyle. “Pool houses have evolved beyond simple changing rooms into elaborate living areas,” says interior designer Jesse Carrier of Carrier and Company, “complete with fireplaces, kitchenettes and large-screen televisions.” Homeowners are now realizing that there are no rules when it comes to what they want out of a pool house. “I think our clients are looking at these structures with
a more open mind as to what they should be than they have in the past,” says Makoid. For this project, the architect took cues from the main home in terms of materials and style, but the pool house is also an entity unto itself. The outdoor covered living area—complete with beverage drawers and an outdoor shower—centers around an oversize fireplace, creating a social space that people are drawn to. “The evolution of the cabana has opened up a whole new—and fun—opportunity to expand traditional outdoor living spaces,” observes architect John David Rose. Adds his son and associate Scott Alexander Rose, “These once-simple weather shelters have been transformed, and there are countless amenities being incorporated into them.” Be it a living area, an outdoor dining pavilion or even a yoga studio, the potential with a pool house is undeniable. As Carrier points out, “They’ve become multifaceted ‘destinations’ in one’s own backyard.” luxesource.com / 239

HOME CAN BE YOUR GREATEST REFUGE, AS THESE STUNNING SPACES CAN ATTEST WITH THEIR SUN-CENTRIC DESIGNS SURE TO INSPIRE MANY A SUMMER ESCAPADE. WRITTEN BY MONIQUE MCINTOSH
GREAT ESCAPE
Warm materials and a lush landscape envelop this dreamy poolside setting composed by designer Iris Dankner for her own getaway home in Southampton. 1 / New Traditions: Make your pool honor the spirit of a more traditional property with a classic outline. With its signature curves, this Romanesque pool strikes an elegant silhouette that suits the historically inspired bones of this Shingle-style home. 2 / Brick Work: Add some softness to your hardscape with brick pavers, done here in an interesting chevron pattern for the pool deck. Plus, the natural variation of aging brick brings out an innate warmth that sleek cement just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t conjure. 3 / Sitting Pretty: Reclining by the pool should feel especially decadent, and these double outdoor chaise lounges play that part perfectly, with crisp white seating, a matching umbrella and animal-print throw pillows. 4 / Fresh Face: Greenery takes on a renewed spirit when allowed to waver from perfectly manicured rows. For the landscaping around this deck, a border of ferns and low-flowering plants create a woodland carpet that blurs into the surrounding pine.

Honoring the beach cottage roots of this Quogue home, designer Scott Sanders invoked a subtly seafaring palette for the porch seating area, made modern with sleek furnishings and a bevy of prints. 1 / Mix and Mingle: Create an inviting outdoor space ideal for circulating with distinctive gathering spots. The dramatic cobalt on the upholstered seating suite from Sutherland’s Peninsula collection defines this outdoor living room, while a whitewashed table and chairs form a casual dining nook. 2 / Double Impact: Inject more dimension into a monochrome color scheme by layering multiple patterns. Here, a subtle nautical navy stripe fabric on the sofa is complemented by an assortment of graphic throw pillows and a geometric area rug. 3 / New Slant: Skip the coastal kitsch and opt for pieces that are unabashedly modernist. Case in point: This electric blue angular side table and streamlined Parsons cocktail table provide a contemporary counterpoint to the more casual furnishings. 4 / Weather Worn: Then again, a subtle dose of driftwood—that beachcomber staple—can work eloquently within modern sensibilities. The gnarled forms of the candle centerpiece on the coffee table add sculptural interest.

THE DESIGN TEAM: Interior Design / Franco Biscardi and Brian Brady, Brady Design Architecture / James Merrell, James Merrell Architects Home Builder / Peter Cardel, Cardel Development LLC Landscape Architecture / Brady Mitchell Anderson, Brady Mitchell Anderson, Ltd.
Defined by exposed woods and an abundance of light, the classic farmhouse style is the ideal candidate for a minimalist treatment, done here with a light hand by designer Franco Biscardi and architect Brian Brady for a Bridgehampton living room. 1 / Freshly Churned: Nothing reflects golden sunlight better than creamy whites, nicely defined in this space with the pristine walls and soft taupe textiles used on the area rug and seating upholstery. 2 / Picture Perfect: Frame your surrounding landscape to full effect with wall-to-wall glass windows. In crisp white, the symmetrical fenestration injects some architectural girth to the towering glass while still conveying a sense of lightness. 3 / Wood Works: Fine oak finishes beautifully invoke that farmhouse freshness while preserving the spaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reserved palette. Used here for flooring and built-in shelving, the furniture-grade natural oak creates a deliciously warm backdrop to showcase curated treasures. 4 / Shelf Life: Bring a handcrafted touch to the pared-down space with artisanal ceramics as accents. In a range of neutral tones, a selection of unique pieces introduces complex textures to the bookcase without disturbing the roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s serene hues.

Any gourmand knows a blend of ingredients becomes greater than the sum of its parts—an adage proven true in this dynamic dining and pool deck area composed by designers Nanjoo Joung and Rick Garofalo for a vacation home in Sagaponack. 1 / Knock on Wood: The cerusedwood look is a classic way to inject weatherworn texture—ideal for the outdoors—while still reading as refined. The treatment feels particularly elegant here on a dining table and chairs from Thayer’s in Bridgehampton. 2 / True Blue: Elevate the obligatory outdoor umbrella with a simple pop of refreshing color in contrast to the landscape. Here, a flattering blue punctuates the dining area and poolside lounges against the surrounding greenery. 3 / Mixed Greens: Go a step beyond that floral centerpiece for a more imaginative take on nature-inspired decor for your tablescape. Paired with an elegant mint-and-gold table setting, miniature potted shrubs deliver the unexpected. 4 / Clean Slate: Preserve the streamlined profile of your classic modular swimming pool with a minimalist hardscape. A sleek deck is the only thing needed to frame the pool, which is surrounded by an uninterrupted stretch of grass.

36 JEREMIAH BRENT
TELEVISION HOST AND OWNER OF JEREMIAH BRENT DESIGN
Latest Hot Spot: The Crow’s Nest—all day, every day. Go-To Shopping Designations: Wyeth Home, Tiina, Love Adorned and Homenature. Favorite Local Design Trend: I’ve always connected to natural elements and materials, but lately, there is a playful and casual sophistication I’m loving. Recent Splurge: A 17th-century console table we found in Southampton. It’s priceless and so, so beautiful. Ultimate Insider: Marjorie Gubelmann, aka DJ Mad Marj. Best-Kept Secret: Hampton Chutney Co. Where can we find you at 5:00 p.m. on a Friday? Poolside with a spicy margarita watching our two-year-old, Poppy, take her “babies” for a swim. Last Meal: Lunch or dinner at Athena and Victor Calderone’s home. Summer Wish List: Honestly, the only thing I am hoping for is some time for our family to be together, disconnect and enjoy one another. Oh, and some great surf!
37 KATE PICKETT
OWNER OF PICKETT’S PRESS
What’s in your beach bag? My Turkish beach towel I brought back from Saint-Tropez (I love how the Europeans use such lightweight towels on the sand— which makes so much sense; they dry quickly and take up no room), a large bottle of Badoit sparking water, my Sea Star Beachware espadrilles, a great book, a deck of cards to entertain my kids with go fish or gin rummy, and a corkscrew in case I run into a friend with a bottle of rosé to share. Favorite Shopping Destination: I love Aerin’s chic summer shop in Southampton. Go-to Host Gift: Hands down my monogrammed Pickett’s Press roadie cups. They come in sets of 25 or 50 and are a huge hit. Plus, they’re shatterproof, dishwasher-safe and hostesses love them! Summer Wish List: A travel backgammon set from Aerin Southampton. Last Meal: Red Bar. It’s comforting, and I’ve been going there for 20 years. I almost invited Marcelo, who has been taking care of me there for almost that long of time, to my wedding.
Clockwise from top: Serena & Lily’s Fouta Turkish towel, a cased glass ceiling fixture from Wyeth, Hampton Chutney Co., Badoit sparkling water, Gwen O’Neil’s Atlantic Avenue, and a Robert August What I Ride surfboard.
38 MICHELLE BERGERON
OWNER OF MICHELLE BERGERON DESIGNS, LTD.
Favorite Beach: Atlantic Beach. The Beach Hut is a concession stand where kids line up, dripping with ice cream and carrying take-out food in thin cardboard boxes—it’s a scene right out of a 1950s beach movie. What’s in your beach bag? Warning: I carry a big straw bag from Kirna Zabête so I have a lot of room. In it is Amly face mist, Soleil Toujours SPF20 sunscreen, Smith & Cult lip gloss from Knockout Beauty in Bridgehampton, Kérastase Aura Botanica hair mist, dog treats, a Game On juice from Juice Press, my rad gold Kaenon shades, a big ole’ straw hat and, hopefully, my car keys. Unless, of course, it’s 5:00, and I am heading to a wine tasting. Recent Splurge: A Robert August What I Ride longboard. Artist On Your Radar: Gwen O’Neil. Her ethereal photographs are reminiscent of delicate abstract paintings. Latest Hot Spot: My friend, Stratis Morfogen, is reopening the Jue Lan Club in Southampton.

Go-To Host Gift: A fresh flower arrangement from East Hampton Gardens. Last Meal: A cheeseburger at Almond. Where can we find you at 5:00 p.m. on a Friday?

Skinceuticals sunscreen for face and Sisley for body, Evian spray, my Chloe sunglasses, and Charlotte Tilbury lip balm with SPF. Last Meal: Truffle pasta and a fabulous bottle of wine on the beach.
44 SASHA BIKOFF
OWNER OF SASHA BIKOFF INTERIOR DESIGN
Best Town For Design Finds: Bridgehampton town leading up to Wainscott is where you will find all the great antiques stores including John Salibello, Wyeth and Gustavo Olivieri. Favorite Beach: Now that that I’ve started surfing, it’s Ditch Plains, where there is a lot of action, cute surfers and a laid-back scene. Favorite Local Design Trend: Ditching the Range Rover for more classic cars with personality. Out east, I drive a canary yellow 1975 Mercedes SL convertible—it feels more authentic. Latest Hot Spot: I love going to The Surf Lodge for sunsets and listening to live music. Best-Kept Secret: My new favorite local Hamptons baker, Carissa, is opening a bakery, Carissa’s Breads, in East Hampton. Go-To Host Gift: Balsam Farms has amazing farm-to table products. Where will we find you at 5:00 p.m. on a Friday? Out at sea fishing on my late grandfather’s boat, the Billy Bob. Hopefully, with a bounty of striped bass and black sea bass ready to throw on the grill.

rchitect Mark Stumer is fluent in the vocabulary of Shingle-style architecture. But for the home of some friends in Southampton, Stumer saw an opportunity to do a new twist on a classic style. While the home as a whole is contextual of the Shingle style, the façade is full of surprises, like the copper-topped turret with whalebone striping or the extra kick of diamond detailing on its rounded tower. “The copper roof really makes the home stand out,” says Stumer, “and the diamond shingles are fun. There’s also the varying roof lines—it’s kind of like a Dutch gambrel.” But the interior of the 7,000-square-foot home is intentionally modern. “I told him ‘If you want a typical Shingle-style house, I’m not that excited,’ ” says Stumer of his initial conversations with the husband, who also brought on builder Bruce Lifton. “But I was interested in something really cool, without moldings or trims. I wanted to keep it very simple, very clean.” The modern home is grounded by rich 6-inch-wide Brazilian walnut plank floors and plenty of wall space for an amazing contemporary art collection, as the couple are
avid collectors. There’s not a typical foyer, but rather a flow right into the core of the house: a great room boasting a 25-foot ceiling. “I wanted something really strong and simple,” Stumer says. “The most important goal was a room that opens to a covered terrace and pool.” To that end, there are three sets of French doors and an abundance of windows that allow natural light to stream in. Upon entrance, the 15-foot-deep, 45-foot-long corridor between the entry and living space “acts as both a sort of foyer and a gallery open to the whole,” says Stumer. Connecting the first and second floors is a staircase with a hammered-iron railing crafted by a blacksmith. “The iron was pounded by hand and features a very simple yet intriguing detail,” he says. Above is a catwalk that floats above the first floor and connects the master bedroom and guest bedroom wings with an open feel. The underside of this bridge, a contemporary coffer, defines the entries to both the dining room and den. Eschewing a traditional fireplace in the den, the architect instead clad the wall in bronze panels, building a niche for a flat-screen above the brick-lined firebox

and framing it with custom mahogany bookcases. Here as throughout, interior designer Nina Wexler kept the interiors light and balanced, with a mix of linen and velvet upholstery paired with a rustic wool rug in a wide-striped chevron pattern and notes of chocolate. Furnishings speak to function—a reading nook and work space with midcentury chairs and a snuggle-in sofa, as well as an inviting upholstered window seat in a velvet leaf pattern that teams cinnamon and blue hues. In the kitchen, sleek stainless steel joins custom classic white-painted wood cabinetry, commercial-grade appliances and concrete counters, transitioning to a different floor material—reclaimed 4-by-4-inch end-grained birch block for more durability. In the corner is an intimate breakfast nook in another turret overlooking the pool. With such an abundance of windows, there was a great effort to frame the views. “The husband loves trees and gardens,” says landscape architect Edmund Hollander. “Also, the site is reasonably sheltered from salt winds and on this fabulous old farm soil you can grow almost anything.” To that end, the grounds feature a mix of trees including a pair of Japanese pagodas, copper beech, river birches and crabapples; boxwood and maples complement the front façade. “We also thought about the nighttime landscape,” says Hollander, “and how the trees would be illuminated at night.” For Stumer, however, “The best thing about the home architecturally is the openness,” he says, “and that it celebrates the owners’ combined love of modern design and fine art.” All with a little twist. luxesource.com / 277

Project manager Joshua Rosensweig says the custom aluminum-frame windows and doors by Fleetwood are “painted gray to withstand the elements and so they don’t ‘pop’ or stand out too much.” Landscape architect Brad Spaulding had similar intentions. “The minimal lawn panels were meant to be a neutral foreground to views of the ocean,” he says. He used native plantings whenever possible, including Eastern Red Cedar, shadblow and pitch pine.
M
ost people know it as Quogue, but the residents of this contemporary vacation home refer to the area as “Smart Hampton” due to its ease of access to Francis S. Gabreski Airport. “It’s easy to get to,” says the husband of the convenient location of his family summer house designed by architect Stuart Disston and project manager Joshua Rosensweig. The location was a big selling point but so was a second factor: the availability of a rare triple lot with 275 feet of oceanfront expanse. “We wanted an unbelievable property where we could build,” the husband says, “because we could never find anything existing that we loved.” Together with builder George Vickers, Jr., interior designer Andrew Sheinman and landscape architect Brad Spaulding, the team manifested the homeowners’ dream: an 11,000-square-foot beach house with seamless indooroutdoor transitions, sleek contemporary furnishings and panoramic views that sweep from the ocean to the bay. The effect is dramatized by an open double-height living area enclosed in glass, where the scenery on opposite sides is visible straight through the house from floor to ceiling. The first level consists of the main living spaces, the kitchen and three bedrooms. Additional sleeping quarters, including the master bedroom, as well as a bar and playroom are housed upstairs. A glass-enclosed wood bridge suspended above the living room leads to the master suite and echoes the 8-foot-wide private boardwalk that extends from the entry terrace to the ocean. That passageway begins between the ipe-and-Bulgarian-limestone-wrapped house to the right and a guest wing to the left, then goes over the pool and down to the water. “It creates a nice procession,” Disston says. To get to the beach, the homeowners don’t even have to step inside. “Imagine if you’re having a pool party,” the architect says. “You can have guests walk straight out to the beach and pool.” If the setting sounds especially enchanting, it’s because it is. Before purchasing, the homeowners hired feng shui master David Cho to analyze the property to ensure it was suited for good health and success; indeed, it was. (Some of Cho’s insight: A home should be higher than the road, because height offers protection, and having a body of water in front—such as the bay—is beneficial because it attracts opportunity.) “I wouldn’t buy a property without a feng shui analysis,” the husband says.

When it came to the interiors, the family took cues from the surroundings. “Because this is a summer home for the client, they wanted it to have a beachy feel,” Sheinman says. “We created big open living spaces to maximize the water views and chose materials like limestone that call to mind the color and texture of sand.” The palette is a cool beige, so “pops of white feel fresh and modern,” the designer says. That translates to a yacht-like white lacquer that retains its color—“a non-yellowing white,” he says. Furnishings are sleek and unobtrusive, like stacked rectilinear cocktail tables and sculptural end tables. Even the sectional in the panoramic living area lacks armrests and, in parts, back rests. Coupled with a white Barcelona daybed, its minimal nature serves a purpose: Why interrupt the view? Chrome, silver and nickel are sparkling accents throughout the house, from glamorous pendant lighting in the dining area to the bases of barstools that overlook the ocean. Vickers notes the attention to detail at every turn, adding, “Even each bathroom has its own particular theme based on using very unique fabricated stone slabs for the backdrop of the showers.” Altogether, it was those details that gave the homeowners the ultimate sense of satisfaction when, after not seeing the project for eight months, they finally visited a completed house. Today, the husband entertains business colleagues at the spacious home just as easily as he and his wife host their children and a gaggle of friends. “It’s a beautiful, magnificent feeling when you come into the house,” the husband says. “I can’t believe the energy, and everyone says so. It’s just unbelievable.”

Opposite, top: With its private balcony and palette of cream and pale blue-gray, the master bedroom “is like a continuation of the water,” says interior designer Andrew Sheinman.

Opposite, bottom: The ocean views, expansive glass doors and rain showerhead in the master bathroom create the feeling of being completely outside. Below: The 8-foot-wide boardwalk leads from the entrance, cuts alongside the house and continues to nearly 300 feet of beach access. “Around the terraces and pool, we used stainless-steel cable wire railing with steel handrails by Westhampton Glass & Metal to maximize the transparency,” Rosensweig says. “It’s sort of a nautical detail as well.”

loods have a way of obliging new beginnings, literally washing out the old to make room for fresh perspectives. This is what happened when the upstairs of a couple’s East Hampton home flooded, tracing a moldy path downstairs through ceilings and walls and causing the owners to call upon longtime friend and architect James Smiros to help them regroup. “It was time to upgrade the house anyway,” recalls Smiros. “Their two children had grown and grandchildren were now on the scene, and they also love to entertain in a big way. So they’d already outgrown the spaces.” The wife felt particularly confined by the kitchen. “It’s the most important room in the house to me,” she explains “I love to cook. I have a beautiful vegetable garden and everything from there goes into my food.” So, Smiros absorbed the garage into the living space, creating a larger three-island kitchen with a butler’s pantry, as well as a large dining area and step-down family room.
Though most of the furniture remained unscathed, some pieces required new upholstery. Says Noel Jeffrey, who had designed the interiors a dozen years prior, “The wife is very elegant, and at the time of the original design, people were decorating in a more formal way,” he says. With this in mind, Jeffrey’s initial mix of Louis XVI and Swedish styles still worked in the living and dining rooms, but upgrades made it feel fresher and more relaxed. “We have two kids, four grandchildren and four dogs,” says the wife, practical grounds for agreeing to Jeffrey’s suggestion of replacing the now-damaged painted and stenciled living room floor with a simpler, cleaner bleached-oak herringbone. The new space created by the absorbed garage was also completely revamped. “We furnished it with modern pieces that were more casual and gave it a new pale blue palette,” says Jeffrey. Upstairs, Smiros completely reconfigured the rooms, allowing for an en suite bath in each. In the master, his and her baths were combined into one larger, more luxurious

sanctuary made all the more elegant, says Jeffrey, “by vintage Murano glass sconces around the room and a Baccarat chandelier we repurposed from the foyer.” In the guest bedrooms, he adds, “We made things more contemporary.” For the entire project, “Everything was specified perfectly, which made the job very easy,” recalls builder Phillip Kouffman. The exception inside was having to reframe ceilings in order to fit larger high-hat lighting in them. “Typical high hats are 12 to 16 inches,” Kouffman explains, “these were about 20 to 25.” Outside, landscape designer Mark Moskowitz complemented the house with a new pool and collaborated with the architect on redesigned patios. Because the family entertain constantly, says Moskowitz, “We needed a showpiece garden that was pretty, in bloom all the way into October.” He also turned an adjacent lot the owners purchased into a meadow and orchard. Finally, Smiros and Moskowitz recast the entry, which now boasts a formal motor court for guests and a separate service entry by the garage. Now, visitors enter through Chinese-style fretwork gates designed by Smiros. “It’s heaven on earth,” concludes the wife.

A family history in building and development led Rick and Kim Slater to the real estate business. Located in East Hampton, the husband-and-wife duo has been developing properties, from planning to final construction, on the East End since 1986. Today, they are known as one of Sotheby’s International Realty’s topperforming teams. Lifelong locals, with family roots in the business stretching back to 1957, the Slaters know the Hamptons well. “We drive off the knowledge we have learned from our history in residential design and building,” Rick says. “The strategies and formulas for marketing and pricing are derived from our experiences in the eastern hamlets, where we have lived all our lives.” Staying educated on local codes and regulations in the jurisdictions in which they sell, the Slaters bring an all-encompassing knowledge of local real estate trends and market conditions to every client meeting. “The Hamptons real estate market may have similarities to other northeastern beach communities, but it stands in a class of its own,” Kim says. “Our client base has no geographical borders. Our customers arrive from all points of the world. They are intelligent, sophisticated buyers who understand the ‘aura’ of the Hamptons market.”

The rug and dresser are from homeowner Nancy Van Duyne’s existing collection. Opposite: Set on the Jersey Shore, the cedar Shingle-style house designed by architect John Lederer and built by general contractor Skip Applegate serves as the perfect refuge for the Washington, D.C.-based homeowner.
C
ocktail cruises and sailboat racing are a way of life on the Jersey Shore, and it is here, in the charming waterfront town of Mantoloking, where longtime homeowner Nancy Van Duyne comes back to visit every summer. So, when her late father’s beloved house was damaged beyond repair during Hurricane Sandy, the Washington, D.C., resident decided to build a new “forever house” for herself and her 20-year-old daughter, Katie, on the same waterfront site. “My whole goal in life is to create a home for our extended family and friends,” Nancy says, “a place where everybody can feel a measure of comfort and independence.” To realize her vision, Nancy brought in Los Angelesbased interior designer Joe Lucas, whom she has known
since he was toddler (he is her best friend’s kid brother), and esteemed local architect John Lederer, who has been designing houses in the area for decades. In fact, the entire design team has life-long connections to the area. “It was definitely a hometown family gathering,” Lucas says. “It’s fun when you know the client and their history, because the things that mean a lot to her mean a lot to me as well.” To begin, the cedar Shingle-style abode had to be elevated 6 feet off the ground to accommodate updated FEMA regulations. A wing runs perpendicular to the house and, along with the home’s elevated floor, makes room for a lower-level garage tucked beneath a bunkroom that sleeps up to 16. “We came up with a sort of split-level,” Lederer says. “It’s not a favorite word in architectural parlance, but in this case, it worked out really well.” luxesource.com / 315
LX_NY30_HOM_Lucas_18.indd 315
5/31/17 12:01 PM
General contractor Skip Applegate, who renovated Nancy’s aunt’s home just up the street 35 years ago, worked with Lederer to navigate the new regulations. “In one day, it took nine concrete trucks just to pour the footings,” Applegate explains, noting that it had to be done in one continuous pour. Although Applegate has completed many extensive renovations over the years, this is the first dwelling that he has actually built from the ground up, and many times the crew worked long into the night. “It was grueling,” he says, “but also exciting.” Just as exciting are the interiors, which include colorful cabinetry and millwork alongside floral patterns and boisterous floor tiles. “Nancy loves color,” Lucas says. “And this is actually a pared-down version of what she might have normally gone for.” While blue kitchen cabinetry creates the “punch” that the owner envisioned for the great room, for example, the walls are a lighter hue that reads as a neutral. Patterned fabric on the dining chairs
contains all the colors in the room, allowing the sectional sofa and patterned draperies to coexist peacefully with the bold blue cabinetry. “There’s a method to the madness,” Lucas explains of his design, where everything has its own special vibe but plays nicely together. That goes double for the adjacent sun room, which has ¾-inch-high wainscoting and a complementary patterned wallcovering. It’s one of Nancy’s favorite rooms and a cozy spot to converse with guests over cocktails before heading into the dining space or to simply take a nap on the tufted sofa. “Couches had to be not just beautiful but also nappable, and carpets had to pass the barefoot test,” Nancy says. “I didn’t want to compromise on the quality, but I still wanted comfort.” In Nancy’s master suite, light green walls and dark green built-ins harmonize with the upholstered headboard and matching draperies. The space shares a covered porch overlooking the water with Katie’s room, where
A Merida rug defines the living area in the open great room that overlooks the water. The comfortable conversation area is furnished with a Bunny Williams sofa covered in Holland & Sherry fabric and a pair of custom armchairs covered in Idarica Gazzoni fabric from Harbinger in West Hollywood.

A sofa from Harbinger, a pair of armchairs covered in velvet from Kravet and leather stools from Serena & Lily make the sun room overlooking the water an ideal place to enjoy cocktails with guests. The coffee table with a wood base and concrete top is from Mr. Brown London.
Lucas employed a more subdued palette. “Katie has a contemporary edge, loves fashion and goes to school in the city,” Lucas explains, “so her room is a little more hip.” Responding to the home’s boisterous palette, landscape designer Randy Lesperance planted the flower boxes with colorful florals and incorporated large hydrangea bushes that soften the architecture and help “bring it down to the ground.” Brick pavers that match the brick on the house add interest to the concrete driveway, while copper light fixtures coordinate with the gutters. “There’s a constant reflection and repetition of elements,” Lesperance explains. “John is an amazing architect, and it’s a privilege and an honor to complement his work.” The result marries the best of traditional architecture with modern conveniences in a setting that never fails to impress the homeowner. “I had a conversation with one of Joe’s sisters before the project, and she said, ‘You’ll be so much happier if you let Joe be Joe,’ and that’s the best design advice I got,” says Nancy, who plans to spend up to six months of the year at the house, joining in on those sailboat races now that she’s retired. “I bought a new sail, and I’ll be racing the boat again this summer. Life is good.”

“I’M LOOKING TO HELP PEOPLE PUT ART AND DESIGN TOGETHER.”
The Jeff Lincoln Art + Design gallery in Southampton (top, left) is an ode to the high art of design. Inventory on the floor includes a hanging sculpture by Porky Hefer (top, right) and Jeff Zimmerman’s glass pieces (right). Designer and gallery owner Jeff Lincoln (shown opposite) showcases works such as a ceramic chaise by Lee Hun Chung (opposite, foreground), a blue settee by Wendell Castle (opposite, left) and a ceiling light by Zimmerman.

f New York designer Jeff Lincoln were to compete on the game show Jeopardy!, he would undoubtedly correctly answer any questions related to his field of work. “As a former journalist, I like to learn everything there is to know about an architect, a designer or an artist, like, ‘Who is John Dickinson, and why is he important?’ and, ‘What famous house did Ted Graber do?’” explains Lincoln, who once worked as a political reporter for The Nation and The Wall Street Journal. “It’s going to be hard to stump me. I’ll take Frank Lloyd Wright’s ‘What is Taliesin West?’ for $500.” Lincoln, the eldest of three brothers, knew he was destined for a creative career when he was in fourth grade. “I won the Earth Day poster contest,” he recalls. “After that, my next artistic triumph was painting a huge Josef Albers-inspired mural on the lunchroom wall. I’d seen the large mural by Albers in the lobby of the Time & Life Building on Sixth Avenue, and it had a powerful effect on me.” His interest may stem from a strong gene pool: His father was an interior designer whose clients included Chanel, Hermés and Estee Lauder, while his mother was a fabric designer.

graduate sees one main commonality in the two fields: a storyline. “You have to have a narrative and facts,” Lincoln says. “Just like why and how you put different things in a sentence, it’s the same with a room. It has to have some narrative flow.” And what better way to tell a design story than through a gallery? Last year, that’s exactly what Lincoln did, opening Jeff Lincoln Art + Design in Southampton with the help of friend Claudia Avendano. Housed in a 19th-century power station, the museum-like setting boasts white brick walls, steel beams and garage-style doors. “The space is sort of analogous to Axel Vervoordt’s gallery, Kanaal, a former distillery
and malting complex in Antwerp, Belgium,” Lincoln explains. As far as the inventory, “it’s meant to have a global perspective,” he says, pointing to works by Jeff Zimmerman, the Haas Brothers, Wendell Castle, Joris Laarman, Andrea Branzi, Shiro Kuramata and the Campana Brothers. Between running his firm and managing and curating the gallery, Lincoln has singlehandedly created his dream job, one that tells his own narrative. “I’ve done interior design for 25 years, so the gallery is the tip of the intellectual spear that excites me the most,” he says. “I’m looking to help people put art and design together.”

D
ecorator Billy Baldwin once said, “The relationship between [a designer and] a client must be ‘we.’ ” When a designer and a homeowner click, a house is more likely to become an authentic expression of its dweller. Factor in a client with a keen eye, and it’s pure gold. Such is the story of designer Greg Shano and homeowner Debra Goldstein. The Manhattan-based lifestyle writer and her partner, Paul Brody, had connected with Shano when he helped pull together their first city apartment. “From the beginning, Greg was my aesthetic soulmate,” Debra says. “The spaces he creates are on trend but timeless—the just-right mix of classic, chic and ultra-livable.” So when the couple began looking for a weekend retreat, they gave Shano a heads-up.
Their search began in New Canaan, Connecticut. With its mix of architecture—stately mansions blend with more modest classic Colonials and ultramoderns—cosmopolitan yet charming downtown and year-round beauty, it was an ideal locale. “For about a minute, we considered looking in neighboring towns, but Paul’s daughters grew up here and we wanted to preserve that sense of home for them,” Debra explains. The trick was finding a house spacious enough to accommodate their combined brood—three kids and two pet pooches between them—that still felt cozy. This 1905 Colonial charmer, which Debra describes as having a “nontraditional” vibe, hit all the right notes. “First, we loved the location,” she says. “I’m a city girl at heart, so having a house within walking distance to town and the train station was key.” One step through the front door

and their dreams took root. “When we walked inside, we immediately got that ‘This is the one’ feeling,” she recalls. “The rooms are all human-scaled, and we fell hard for the architectural details, like the coffered ceilings, arched doorways and gorgeous millwork.” The couple purchased the property in 2014 and promptly began an overhaul. At the helm was Shano, whose initial role was narrowing down Debra’s goals. “She’s the first to admit she probably had too many ideas and was looking to me to help focus and edit them into one cohesive vision,” he says. Once room schemes were nailed down, the shopping began. “We went to many showrooms to find furniture, lighting and accessories,” Debra says. “But I also love vintage pieces, so we scouted dozens of antique shops in New York, Connecticut and the Hamptons—we even took a road trip to the Brimfield Antique Flea Market in Massachusetts.”
LX_NY30_HOM_Shano_12.indd 340
At Debra’s request, Shano grounded most public spaces in a trio of white, gray and black; enlivening the palette are touches of aqua, pink, navy and green. The restrained color scheme informed fabric and finish decisions: Underfoot, for instance, original oak floors were stained a combination of ebony and dark walnut and given a glossy finish. “When you work with a limited palette, it’s important to infuse as much texture and novelty into your fabrics and finishes as possible so a room doesn’t appear too flat,” Shano explains. Things also needed to connect. “I like to consider how each of the rooms is going to be used by the clients and then pulse certain details and finishes into them so they relate but still feel special in their own right,” Shano says. “In the most heavily trafficked spaces, I focused on comfort and durability in the fabrics and furniture pieces. And as I moved into the rooms that were slightly more formal, I amped up some of the details to provide a little more drama.”

The kitchen is infused with subtle details reminiscent of a French bistro, including rattan chairs and a subway tile backsplash with dark gray grout. Pietra Cardosa granite clads the counters; hardy Caesarstone tops the island. Bronze-finished pendants are by Thomas O’Brien.
Bold-patterned fabrics, textured wallcoverings, high-gloss paints and lacquered surfaces did the trick. All four are featured in the foyer, with its geometric rug, silver-leaf ceiling, ultra-shiny trim and lacquered console. Finally, furnishings—a mélange of new, bespoke and vintage—had to hit the sweet spot between sophistication and practicality. “The homeowners didn’t want anything that felt overly precious or showy, as that isn’t how they live,” Shano says. Favored retro pieces include the living room’s black lacquered table and a pair of 1940s scroll armchairs in the master bedroom. The breakfast nook embodies Debra’s preferred casual vibe. “I knew this was where the family would be spending most of its time, so comfort and function were key,” Shano says. There, a custom industrial-style dining table of reclaimed wood and cast iron marries Tolix chairs topped with cushions in a hardy indoor-outdoor fabric. But Debra was open to infusing some elegant moments into the home, provided they felt approachable. Case in point: the dining room. “This is the first room you see when you walk in the front door, so I felt strongly that it should be a really pretty space that represented a bit of what the house was all about—elegant, refined and comfortable—with great silhouettes, details and finishes throughout and an interesting mix of patterns to keep it looking modern and spirited,” Shano says. To signal its “specialness,” he bathed it in soft pale aqua, which figures in the room’s wallcovering. “I loved that it had a bit of a trellis feel to it, which works nicely with the bold stripe on the Roman shades and the cherry blossom print on the backs of the chairs,” he says. Today, Debra and family continue to pinch themselves. “To say we love this house is an understatement,” she says. “Everything about it brings us joy, and to this day we still walk from room to room and marvel that it’s ours.” What makes the couple most content, however, is sharing their homestead. “Nothing makes us happier than having a bubbling houseful of people we love,” Debra says. 342 / luxesource.com

The new stairwell, baluster and handrail were designed by architect Kathrine “Kitty” McCoy; the upholstered bench in the hallway is from One Kings Lane.

W
hen a Manhattan couple purchased a pair of adjoining properties in Sag Harbor, they were faced with an intriguing quandary: how to reconfigure two historic homes to handle the demands of modern life and create a cohesive, welcoming family compound. The couple—she is the producing director at an offBroadway theater; he is a venture capitalist in the aerospace industry—had been visiting Sag Harbor for more than 30 years when they decided to purchase two available neighboring homes occupying nearly 2 acres. “We must have rented more than 20 houses through the years,” the wife says. “We have four children, and as they grew up our needs changed.” For their current lifestyle, the couple knew a renovation to their new vacation homes was in
order, a nearly four-year project they were more than happy to take on. “I like to buy houses that have great bones and need a lot of work,” the wife says. “It gives us parameters but also the freedom to make them suit our needs.” This time, the owners were dealing with two landmark homes, the Rysam House (circa 1790) and the adjacent Federal-style Sleight House (built in 1820), both of which had suffered from “benign neglect,” as the wife describes it. The original owner of Rysam House was Captain William J. Rysam, who worked in Sag Harbor’s then-booming whaling industry; his son-in-law, Cornelius Sleight, owned the smaller structure next door. “The challenge was returning the house to its original roots and staying true to the spirit of a sea captain’s home,” the wife says. As such, the couple knew assembling an outstanding design team was necessary.
The living room in the guesthouse features upholstered wing chairs from RH and an antique chandelier purchased in Paris by the owners. The bamboo-and-glass coffee table is from Ruby Beets.

In the main house’s rear parlor, perfect for an intimate gathering, the soothing white-and-gray palette contrasts with striking yellow accents. The damask wallpaper is Elise by Sanderson; the settee, sofa and tufted side chairs are from George Smith.
Enlisted for the project was local architect Kathrine “Kitty” McCoy, a native East Ender who founded her firm in 1991. The couple found McCoy through their real estate agent, who had become a close friend over the years. “We looked at a new home Kitty designed and wondered if she was interested in renovation,” the wife recalls. “We met and immediately hit it off. It helped that she and I attended the same college. We hired her soon after meeting her.” Next, the couple brought on designer Darlene Fridstein, a close friend the wife had met in London in the 1990s, and renowned Hamptons landscape designer Charlie Marder. Together, the trio combined their expertise to create a plan for a welcoming modern property that still honored its past. “The vision was to create a compound for multiple generations of both family and friends that respected the historic structures yet fashion living spaces for a 21st-century lifestyle,” McCoy says. The main house was transformed into an elegant residence stretching more than 8,000 square feet over two-and-a-half stories, with an attic and a full basement. Portions of the structure were gutted and reconfigured, and an addition included a large eat-in kitchen and a side entrance. A driveway bisecting the property was removed, and a new terrace, a swimming pool and a combination pool house and garage was installed. luxesource.com / 353

Opposite: Stone pavers create a foliage-lined path to the back entrance to the guesthouse, which showcases custom doors by Upstate Door in Warsaw, New York. Below: For the main house’s formal dining room, McCoy designed a new fireplace mantel, fabricated by Greg D’Angelo Construction, although the fireplace itself is original, dating to 1740. The wallpaper is Paisley Circles by Sanderson, and the antique marble-and-oak dining table is by Derouet Jean-Paul from Marché Vernaison in Paris.

In the main house, McCoy designed the custom kitchen cabinetry, which was fabricated by Darren Sternlieb Woodworking. The countertops are from Southampton Gallery of Marble & Tile, the Drucker bistro chairs are from Walters Wicker, and the antique chandelier is from Paul Bert Serpette in Paris.

As construction progressed, surprises were uncovered. “When working with an old structure, the moment of truth is when the framing is exposed,” McCoy says. “Prior to that, you really don’t know what you’re dealing with and hope for the best. Here, much of the existing framing of both houses was deteriorated, and many of the wall studs still had bark from the trees they were cut from.” Builder David DiSunno recalls other challenges: “Much of the existing framing in both the houses had been compromised by way of water, fire and insect damage or through many renovations through the years.” In fact, a new foundation had to be built for the Sleight House, which was gutted to the studs, given new wiring and plumbing and turned into a 3,800-square-foot guesthouse. On the ample lot, Marder says he aimed to provide “privacy from within while respecting views from the community” and to create “a variety of focused vistas and points of views that create intimacy and expansiveness simultaneously.” He accomplished this by designing the grounds to be reminiscent of a French garden. “Charlie has given us an allée and lavender,” the wife says. “We’ve got a beautiful lawn and a rope swing in the front yard. And the pool fence is our vineyard—we have a row of grapes we’ve harvested and hope to have wine next year.” Inside, Fridstein collaborated with the wife to bring to life the client’s eclectic, dramatic and whimsical aesthetic through her preferences for pattern-on-pattern style, Parisian antiques and family heirlooms. “She has great taste,” the designer says. “She knows what she likes, and she has a very good sense of how she wants her home to feel.” This meant playing up a palette of warm tones of gray, white and yellow for the main house and Dutch blue, white and red in the guesthouse, particularly through wallpapers. “They provide immediate intimacy in a room and can put you in the mood to eat, sleep, read or write,” the wife says. “It’s very warm and vibrant.” Inside and outside, the property respects its history while also reflecting the owners’ style. “I find contentment in every part of the house,” the wife says. “I’m just as happy coming downstairs to the kitchen in the morning as I am going upstairs to my bedroom at night.”
“The wife knows what she likes, and she has a very good sense of how she wants her home to feel.” –DARLENE FRIDSTEIN
