Not Your Typical Hamptons Cottage
Clive Lonstein, a former Tiffany & Co. VP, completely renovated a 1950s guest cottage on a Hamptons estate, raising the roof, adding cathedral‑style ceilings and new windows to flood the space with light. He re‑imagined the layout with a central kitchen, movable island, and custom oak bar while preserving the clients’ antique pieces. The design blends vintage treasures, Danish modern furniture, and hand‑woven rugs, creating a layered, country‑cottage aesthetic that feels unexpected for Southampton. The project was finished in time for the summer high season, delighting guests.
