Hamptons Arts & Crafts

A Hamptons home inspired by the work of Sir Edwin Lutyens during the Arts and Crafts era features carefully composed window patterns and steeply pitched, gabled rooflines. Inside, contemporary interiors provide a counterpoint to the architecture’s historical references. The naturalistic landscape creates a dialogue between house and grounds, echoing the harmony Lutyens and his favored garden designer, Gertrude Jekyll, sought between architecture and planting. While rooted in history, the house is decidedly not a period piece. Instead, it demonstrates how the past can inform and enrich the rhythms of modern family life.
