HAMPTONS…

developer de la Motte Schult has partnered with esteemed interior designer Tamara Magel to transform an empty Sagaponack lot into a sprawling 11 bedroom, 13 bath estate. Complete with the obligatory Hamptons pool and tennis courts, the property sits on 2.3 acres of tee-trimmed land along the enviable Hedges Lane…

 

 

A RESIDENT… of the area herself, Magel was given carte blanche and a year and a half to transform all 12,600+ sq ft of the new build into a turnkey home. The result is quintessential Magel and modern day Hamtons to a T – exuding livable luxury, grounded in an appreciation for nature and natural materials, and amped up with cutting edge art, lighting and furnishings.

 

 

IN THE… kitchen, Magel worked in classic Hamptons whites and lights, beginning with a bleached wood floor, natural stone counters, and woven canvas chairs then accenting with a showstopping black range hood and striking contemporary-meets-vintage chandelier by Apparatus.

 

 

THIS… play of dark and light carries through into the the dining room, which Magel clad in an inky grasscloth wallpaper then brightened with an elemental white table, a custom buffet and her signature shearling chairs. In a guest bath Magel worked in similar monochrome, this time mixing it up with a dark floor and and light walls accented with brass and blackened metal details.

 

 

THE CHILDREN’S… bedroom enjoys a softer palette of whites, cool blues, and grays. Here natural materials and textures play a starring role, while iconic design pieces from Scandinavian masters like Kay Bojesen and Hans Wegner make appearances in the form of wooden monkeys and Wishbone Chairs.

 

 

THE SCANDINAVIAN… meets American influence continues in the master bedroom with natural woods, fur accents and a light and airy vibe playing off a statement pair of 1950s Cobra Sconces by famed Swedish-American architect / designer Greta Magnusson Grossman.

 

 

MAGEL… added a dose of cozy to the lofty master bedroom by painting the ceiling a velvety grey and incorporating a mix of chunky textured throws and fur accents – all perfect compliments for a nighttime nestle by the contemporary gas fireplace.

 

 

MAGEL’S… impeccable style carries through right down to the home’s 13 unique baths – each one featuring a paned glass shower – beautifully bridging the gap between old and new as she redefines contemporary Hamptons living through her design.
