"e clients wanted to create a house that
was European in feel, but still appropriate in
the context of the village of Water Mill," says
Paul Sherrill, principal of Solis Betancourt
& Sherrill. "As designers, we were aiming for
simple tactile spaces with subtly layered textures
and materials. We chose antiques and worn
finishes to add depth and character. is home
is all about restraint, making considered details
appear effortless."
e project began with an architectural update
to transform the dated 1960's single-story home.
e design team raised the roofline to open
up the central living room and make room for
bedrooms upstairs. ey also added a distinct
vestibule to the entry area, and renovated the
courtyard with stone paving and an antique
fountain. Additions created space for a study
and kitchen. A later project involved the
creation of a pool and guest house.
