New England Classic Design Inspiration to Think Summer NOW!

New England Classic Design Inspiration to Think Summer NOW is a little break from winter’s chill to dream of a getaway to a quaint village. There is traditional interior design inspiration ahead as well as glorious home exterior beauty. Even if there are no vacation plans on your calendar, perhaps the simplicity and pleasing classicism will soothe you right where you are.

Greydon House exterior: a hip and historic boutique hotel in Nantcket. #greydon #nantucket #chichotel #newenglandstyle — In case you need Nantucket summer vibes!

For me, the design story of this chic, hip, and historic Nantucket hotel GREYDON HOUSE is about simple yet thoughtful details.

The owners worked with Cory Schifler of Urchin Workshop to design cheeky accessories for the space, including these doorknob flags—a creative take on “Please make up this room.”

(Above) In lieu of a plastic “please make up this room” placard, notice the sweetly satin pennant for a guestroom door knob.

It is such careful consideration and customization of such features that sets a boutique hotel like Greydon House apart.

Though it be winter (and an arctic one where I live!), let’s anticipate spring getaways, weekends in New England, and the summer loveliness to come just NOW with design inspiration from a Nantucket beauty.

John Robshaw provided the block printed linens for the beds.

Light fixtures with pulleys, weights, and loops hark back to mechanisms on old clocks and lamps. Vintage seascape paintings are scattered around. Much of the furniture is either vintage or custom.

Showers are lined in maritime scenes made of Portuguese tiles, and sconces on the eaves have an air of recycled industrial corridor lights. The boxy and unpainted sink vanities, reminiscent of 19th-century farmhouse washstands, leave glossy pipes exposed. — Photo: Greydon House/Design: Roman and Williams via Remodelista

Bathrooms feature Waterworks brass fixtures, custom cabinets with honed marble countertops, and Aesop bath products.

Guests can admire jars of beach finds and fill journals with travel notes at an unpretentious desk in weathered dark paint and a red-stained chairâthe kind of gentle mismatch that seafarers would have created out of heirlooms and purchases.

A seating area in one of the suites features an eclectic collection of antiques, including an English sofa, bamboo pieces from the South Pacific, and Nordic paintings.

Guests are greeted at reception with a European-style key cabinet, a relic that provides atmosphere and a handy spot to sort mail.

The dining room’s sea-blue walls lend it a modern New England tavern feel. The menu from executive chef Marcus Gleadow-Ware, an alum of Charlie Palmer’s Michelin-starred Aureole, reflects the same sensibility, incorporating local organic produce from landscape designer Marty McGowan’s Pumpkin Pond Farm.

Well-collected accessories—rough-hewn pottery, nautical artwork, brass candlesticks—give the hotel a lived-in vibe.

A chinoiserie bar cabinet in the dining room adds colorful contrast—and a well-traveled flair.

In the bar’s lounge, flame-stitch-covered sofas make an unexpected counterpoint to a salon-style display of nautical artwork, including framed wool-stitched scenes, or “sailor’s woolies,” found at Nantucket antiques shops.

New York-based Roman and Williams designed Greydon House with a fictional whaling captain in mind—a wealthy character who picked up artworks, books, and furniture on his far-flung voyages. “They knew what we wanted to create hadn’t been created before and so it needed a story,” says Greydon House co-owner Alexander Leventhal.
