25 Beautiful Homes

September 2025

- WORDS VIVIENNE AYERS

HOW DID YOU COME TO BE INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT? I had previously worked with the clients on their New York City apartment. They reached back out when the time came to do a full renovation for their secondary home on Long Island.

WHAT WAS THE BRIEF? The homeowners were looking for a comfortable home fit for their growing family. They pretty much gave me free rein with the design, trusting me to come up with a whimsical yet sophisticated space reflective of their personalities.
