Nickey Kehoe used a mix of styles and periods to update Storybook architecture in a refreshing way. Roland Rainer chairs, a George Nakashima credenza, and a Josef Frank cabinet for Svenskt Tenn all happily share the space with an antique carpet.
The approach to this property was designed to be slow, to encourage appreciation of the site’s unique beauty and tranquillity. Brad Dunning added this set of winding stairs beguilingly surrounded by lush and varied vegetation, which leads down a bluff to a Dunning-designed small sauna set invitingly right into the sand.
Linda Brettler had tiles for this house, including those that line the base of the loggia’s banquette, custom designed.
Furnishings of different periods and provenances create a beguiling mix in a living room designed by Linda Brettler. The blue wingback chairs are 1940s Italian, by Paolo Buffa.
Steven Shortridge and Andrew Benson fitted the living/dining room of this updated 1960s house with a round Polanco dining table from antique dealers Blackman Cruz, a B&B Italia sofa, a sculptural coffee table by Joris Laarman, and a custom floating credenza. All share good-design pedigrees.
A house, designed by Courtney Applebaum, filled with contemporary art and midcentury furnishings begins with a living room featuring an ever-changing Elliptical Wide Glass piece by James Turrell and a wall-mounted shelf sculpture by Haim Steinbach. Armchairs by Jean Prouvé and Hans Wegner with a coveted vintage “patina,” combined with occasional tables by Charlotte Perriand and a Jean Royère–inspired sofa sit atop antique rugs.
