  • Our clients envisioned a generous family home designed to bring everyone together while providing distinct spaces for both parents and children.

    At the heart of the brief was a strong focus on entertaining and connection to the outdoors, with the main living spaces opening towards views of the garden and pool. A separate kids’ quarters provides the younger members of the family with their own dedicated space, while a private parents’ retreat creates a peaceful escape away from the main living areas.

    Functionality was equally important, with the kitchen, butler’s pantry and laundry thoughtfully connected to create an efficient and practical flow for everyday family life.

    Inspired by timeless Hamptons architecture, the home was designed with a cohesive palette and considered detailing that allows the interiors and exterior to flow seamlessly together, creating a relaxed yet refined family home.
