Welcome to this serene country club retreat designed by Moore House Design for busy Boston professionals who have cherished summers at the Aquidneck Club in Rhode Island for over 20 years. They jumped when a rare condo in the historic clubhouse came up for sale. While the exteriors reflected New England shingle-style architecture, the interiors required transformation from outdated 90s finishes. The redesign balances their minimalist aesthetic with vintage lighting, clean lines and unique art for a modern, comfortable space.

“Framed by the oak-lined banks of the Fowl River, the aptly-named River House project is a celebration of its locale. Working with local artisans and builders, this home was designed with the clients’ love of entertaining in mind. Traditional camp-inspired elements like wood paneling, layered furnishings, and nostalgic patterns are balanced by modern millwork and a calm color palette. A bar bridges old and new structures while becoming the perfect place to pour drinks for guests piled into the Great Room for Saints kickoff. Custom banquets along either side of the fireplace conceal drawers full of board games and stash firewood for fall evenings. Easy and comfortable, nothing feels too precious as guests move seamlessly from a day on the water and onto the porch for a late night ping-pong match.”

Meet West Studio meticulously remodelled this 1960s midcentury bungalow in Fayetteville, Arkansas, transforming it into a modern retreat while honouring its original charm. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the home’s restoration addressed structural issues and revealed hidden details. Warm, feminine touches define the space: a jewel-box kitchen with brass finishes, restored wood-panelled walls, bold quartzite accents and creamy limewash walls. Vintage lighting and unique furnishings bring character to each room creating a personalized, sophisticated haven.

“Working closely with the client, the brief was to create a cheerful second home, with injections of colour and character throughout. The primary concern was to improve the flow of spaces and maximising the limited footprint, to ensure that each area was utilised to its best advantage. Character was then added through working with a range of materials and antique pieces to give a quirky narrative to the space.”

Interior design in Canada is often questionable, in my humble opinion. Every once in a while a designer comes along that seems to truly have skills and is able to create magazine worthy spaces. Toronto based Sam Sacks is one of them. She’s so good I almost had to split this into two posts but managed to edit the photos down to share my favourites. Some photos: Lauren Miller.
