Re: NANTUCKET INTERIOR AND OTHERS

I so appreciate and look forward when you have a house or two to share with us!  As always, thanks for doing this!!

 

I definitely prefer his modern design in the NYC apartment.  Obviously I'd change a few things here and there but, overall, I really like it a lot.

 

The Nantucket house is nicely done but is definitely not my preferred style.  There are also some things I would change but the major items would be that dining room that you see off the small living room and the laundry room.  Both of those rooms gave me a headache!!!

 

I think there was another house but I'm not remembering much about it so I'll have to go take another look.

I like the Nantucket house. The furnishings are more my style, but I would add a bit more color.

The Nantucket house is so interesting. 

 

However, I don't care for the cool white bleached colors in the kitchen. 

 

I also don't like the fireplace in the kitchen.   It seems like the remodel ignored the "presence" the fireplace gives and just shoved it off the end of the countertop.    It would be difficult to appreciate it if you are sitting on the other end of that countertop,

 

Either fully commit to the fireplace or ignore it.

If I could live in the Nantucket saltbox and travel into town to my uptown apartment for entertaining on the weekends or whenever my friends were in town, could I be happier?  Oh, but for the traffic.  I do love the apartment's European vibe and I love the saltbox of the early American way of life.  Can a girl lead two lives?

Re: NANTUCKET INTERIOR AND OTHERS

Just having a house at Nantucket would be enough for me!!!  Love.  The house is charming, comfortable and beautifully furnished and decorated.  Even though it is compact it is so appealing and.the sitting room is cozy.  The Sutton Place living room is lovely, the rug is a stand out as are the shelves beside the fireplace.  I do like the chairs and the ceiling.  I didn't care for the third place, too modern and not my taste.  

 

Thanks for the tour of the three homes, Oznell, I enjoyed.

This looks like three rooms in one:  a business office waiting room (leather chairs), a formal living room (blue velvet couch), and a boudoir (couch with unusual shape, shaggy pillows, dizzying fabric pattern).

Re: NANTUCKET INTERIOR AND OTHERS

All of these places are so interesting and different; the Nantucket House is true to its location, but the only places with enough color for my taste are the laundry room and the porch. The rest of the house seems whitewashed so I would need to add some color, even if a bit less subtle; I agree with your comment about the gray. The exterior reminds me so much of Peppa Pig!  The Sutton Place apt living room is right up my alley. I would have to remove the vase on the mantel...it is a bit distracting. The last apartment shows versatility of the designer in giving the client what they want, but it just doesn't appeal to me.
