Sunny Cle tiles and curving wallpaper (Seascape, Winter by Walnut) brighten the bathroom; wood and brass warm up a white display shelf; a beaded chandelier and colorful artwork by Melanie Severin (via Minted) lends pattern play in the formal dining room.

ABOVE Nicolò Sertorio’s enigmatic photo from his series “Once We Were Here” pairs with a side chair designed by Jeffrey Alan Marks. LEFT The master suite is a tranquil retreat with a cream-colored woven wool carpet and streamlined upholstered bed. A pair of Thomas Bina designed nightstands with concrete tops flank the bed.

The pearl colored wall paint and Italian hand sawn larch floors of the living room continue into the open plan dining and kitchen areas. Bottega side chairs in off white leather surround a grey walnut Parsons dining table. A blue-skied contemporary landscape by Mark Bowles surmounts a 1970s-inspired greige oak sideboard. For visual continuity, Martinez installed Bottega stools around the kitchen island. A pair of futuristic pendant lights by Danish designer Poul Henningsen illuminate the space. Beyond the floor to ceiling glass doors, the exterior living areas integrate fluidly. For the conversation grouping, Martinez selected transitional stainless steel and teak furniture from Link. To reference the interiors, he upholstered them in the same outdoor, indoor fabric that he used in the living room. When the tween and teen children are not outdoors on the deck, they can escape to their sunroom. Art plays an essential role in this space with a cerulean blue diptych by Tom Bolles. Martinez mixed a modular sofa upholstered in navy linen with Palecek’s whimsical Paxton Saucer chair and stool, fabricated from hand-woven natural seagrass and rope. A photograph by Lisa Levine depicts figures rhythmically swimming through cyan waters on a brilliant summer day. CH
