Diary of an Interior Designer: Cape Cod Seaside Home, The Guest Bedrooms
May 07 2013 ·1“The ornaments of your house will be the guests who frequent it”
~ Author Unknown
When we last checked in at our Cape Cod seaside home, I shared with you the transformation of the Children’s Suite. Well, this luxurious home boasts three additional guest rooms in the main house. Even though each bedroom has water views, we opted for a more sophisticated design that compliments the blue of the sky and the water with a reference to sand and seashells. Come take a peek…
Diary of an Interior Designer: Cape Cod Seaside Home, The Children’s Suite
May 01 2013 ·0At nearly every Designer’s Show House I’ve attended, the Children’s Room is always among the favorite spaces. Designing children’s spaces presents the opportunity to incorporate whimsical touches, plenty of color and to think like a child again ~ how grand! The Children’s Suite in the Cape Cod retreat seems to me the perfect place to start our tour…
Window Seats
Feb 09 2012 ·0Window seat.
The name alone seems romantic to me, bringing to mind classic novels and the image of a young girl perched on a window seat looking out, day dreaming or simply gazing at the stars.
Today’s window seats are no less romantic but are also a wonderful opportunity to add function and beauty to a space, as well as a way to connect to the view beyond.
Recently I oversaw the installation of custom window seat designed and built by Michael Cundari of Morpheus in Hingham, MA. 
The custom carpentry details not only lend beauty to the window seat, but help integrate it into the existing space. This window seat offers storage with drawers which slide out to the side, along with panels that open from the top. 
We designed a custom cushion to top this roomy, angular window seat, selecting a striking tangerine and ivory geometric print fabric. It makes the perfect perch for enjoying the abundant sunshine and the water views beyond~just ask Bella the cat!
Window seats are one of my favorite features and we integrated several into this seaside home, another recent project of mine.
This window seat in chartreuse velvet compliments the bedroom and is perfect for gauging the weather ~
The children’s suite is this home offers the parents their own bed and gives the child a small nest bed of their own behind this sheer. The treetop view from this window seat plays right into a child’s imagination. What a wonderful spot to curl up with a book, a few toys, or maybe even a nap…
Nothing says ‘we are so glad you’re here‘ like this guest bedroom. Here we find yet another lush window seat to place your “things” or to stretch out and relax as you listen to the ocean and enjoy the garden views.

Might as well get comfortable and enjoy the view!
