The bucolic surrounds and a shingle clad farmhouse silhouette set the stage for this modern take on a holiday shack but don’t be fooled. For all its relaxed simplicity this getaway on Shelter Island is a sophisticated and chic family home. By Brooklyn-based Workstead.

“It was a joy being asked to carry out a second renovation for this beautiful and significant heritage house, to accommodate a growing family. Architecturally, our approach was to delicately weave additional bedrooms and living spaces respectfully around the charming and dappled pink Heritage house. We created a dialogue of poetic curved volumes and light, internally and externally to enhance the beautiful space.”

From dark and moody to light-filled and open plan this new addition connects the house seamlessly to the garden while providing stylish and welcoming areas for family and friends to gather. Hawksburn House by Melbourne Susi Leeton Architects + Interiors.

Sometimes I think I should be jealous. These Parisian pads are just too chic, too stylish, too fabulous. I really should be jealous but they’re soooooo good I don’t have the time to indulge in a little green-eyed envy. I’m too busy pinning all the inspiration.
