Martha’s Vineyard Beach House
Off the road to South Beach, this contemporary Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts beach house was cosmetically renovated and decorated for a creative family summer retreat over a timeline of 6 months. Renovation updates included removing walls, electrical, finishes, flooring, and cosmetic updates to existing kitchen and bathrooms that would allow the family to move in as soon as possible. Design choices centered around a bohemian, surf-inspired influence with unique and one-of-a-kind furnishings that evoke the family’s relaxed, playful spirit. This home was featured in House Beautiful in October 2021.
