The 1930s Cape had undergone multiple renovations over the years by its visionary and eclectic prior owners. ERA chose to preserve and retain the layout and spirit of the house; however, mechanicals were updated, all windows were replaced, and the summer retreat was transformed into a year-round space for creativity and collaboration. A dilapidated entry volume was rebuilt, and furnishings were selected to enhance the open and airy environment.

The palette of the architecture, including painted floors, wood-clad columns, and fresh white baths, was combined with a mix of new and old furniture, melding different eras and materials to create a unique space that feels as though it is from no particular era.
