Design in the Hamptons

A luxurious look at nineteen private houses in the Hamptons, Long Islandâ€™s exclusive summer retreatâ€”with architecture, interiors, and gardens from celebrity designers including Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan, John Barman, Fox-Nahem, Thad Hayes, Tony Ingrao, Todd Merrill, Roman & Williams, and Joe dâ€™Urso.
Â
These architects and interior designers are inspired by the islandâ€™s renowned natural beauty to create houses that set the global standards for oceanfront style. Today, that means thoughtful, modern, highly personalized structures that reference the East Endâ€™s rich history and are designed to enhance appreciation of the fabled seaside landscape.
Â
The properties range from shingled beach cottages to a redesigned 1840s barn and a sustainable, glass-walled guesthouse on pilings. They display a curated blend of traditional references with cutting-edge architecture and enviable art collections, finished by the South Forkâ€™s famous light and ocean views.
Â
In some houses, a sense of calm pervades, and cozily appointed dining terraces with neutral color schemes look out over peaceful docks, while in others, vibrant midcentury modern accessories and outsize outdoor fireplaces point to frequent and exuberant pool parties. Whether they are decorated with natural materials and iconic 1950s and 1960s furniture from Charles Eames and Hans Wegner, or eighteenth-century antiques and industrial objectsâ€”all have been carefully selected to demonstrate the possibilities of authentic design in the Hamptons today.
