SOMETIMES, KISMET HAPPENS!  So excited to share my recent cover story for the decorating issue of Hamptons Cottages & Gardens featuring my talented friend and celebrated Hamptons interior designer, Cricket Burns, who flipped a historic Hamptons farmhouse called Kismet with her inimitable style and flair. “Every room feels different and that’s what people find exciting when they walk through the front door.”

 The redesign was a personal passion project for Cricket, who shares a long history with the homeowner Geralyn Lucas, “Our children were best friends when they were young, and when Geralyn would pick up her daughter she would always say how much she loved our home. Fast forward 15 years later she rang me for a coffee date in NYC, arriving with a swatch of wallpaper in hand and said − “We bought a house in Wainscott and I want you to design it!“  Check out the gorgeous cover and twelve page story, below. Special thanks to my editor and friend, Kendell Cronstrom, for his collaboration on this beautiful feature.
