Modern Farmhouse

The Hamptons

As seen in HAMPTONS COTTAGES & GARDENS

We used a tranquil range of ivories, creams, and whites throughout the house, but the living room’s window wall, dressed in yards of Larsen’s cloud-covered sheers, is the most dramatic gesture. +

Rooms that boast a wealth of natural light take best to lamps, sconces, or chandeliers, that are strong, sculptural objects in their own right. John Wigmore’s formation of Japanese paper cylinders, suspended low on steel rods, humanizes the scale of the eighteen-foot ceilings in this Hamptons house.
