TRADITIONAL HOME SIZZLES IN THE HAMPTONS

TRADITIONAL HOME SIZZLES IN THE HAMPTONS

TRADITIONAL HOME SIZZLES IN THE HAMPTONS

TRADITIONAL HOME MAGAZINE sponsored a weekend event series in the Hamptons that was an elegant beach inspired tour of chic style and tasteful living.  The main focus was The Traditional Home Hampton Designer Showhouse. It has reigned sixteen years as the showcase for America’s premier design talent.  The impressive home will be open through Labor Day, Monday, September 5, 2016. Proceeds will benefit Southampton Hospital, Southampton, NY.

The 10,000 sq. ft. estate-like house is located on 3 acres at 1597 Noyac Path in Sag Harbor and was generously donated by Bodenchak Design and Build.  It boasts 8 bedrooms, 7.5 baths and is filled with natural light, spacious rooms and high ceilings.  The 26 selected designers created individual rooms with wonderful points of view that made for a beautiful cohesive home.

Along with the design talent are some notable sponsors supporting the cause: Kohler Co. who is the 2016 Design Sponsor. Saunders is the 2016 Exclusive Real Estate Sponsor. Mario Buatta is the Honorary Showhouse Chairman. Jamie Drake and Alexa Hampton are the Honorary Design Co-Chairs.

Opening night was a hot summer Saturday soiree.  At the entrance there was a small group of pint size protesters  – mostly children under six, infants and pets, since (to their dismay) they were not allowed to tour the home. So, we stepped over them and continued our wander through the well-appointed, newly built home.

Hundreds of guests floated in and out of the 3-level home that sports a manicured back yard with a tennis court that is just a hop, skip and splash away from the heated pool.

There were delicious bourbon cocktails and a variety of tasty bites. I had the chance to chat with several of the sun-kissed industry insiders like Tamara Matthews Stephenson, Christina Juarez, Libby Langdon, Kate Jerde Cole, Tori Mellot, Dwayne Clark, Mary Douglas Drysdale, Lori Sheldon, Dana Sandberg, Katia Graytok, Lily Kanter and Claudia Couto.
