for New York magazine, in the foreword to a

Countless people from coast to coast

for homes of escape during much of the pandemic. Vacation home sales rose by
16.4% in 2020, according to NAR’s 2021 “Vacation Home Counties Report” —

grounded in history, art and a respect for local artisanal talent, according to
Goodman. This particular skill served
him well when it came time to interpret his signature refinement and simplicity for his clients’ vacation homes in

Montoya is no stranger to the idea of
escapist fantasy. As a child, his family split time between Bogotá and a rice farm in a remote town called Puerto
Tejada, where he first understood the importance of how design relates to
its physical location and geographical climate. Today, the prolific design
icon himself divides his time between an apartment in New York City and a
sprawling 100-acre country estate in the Hudson River Valley, which he named
La Formentera after one of the Balearic Islands off the coast of Spain.
