A Collected Coastal Retreat

Inspired by the beauty and laid-back spirit of the Maine coast, this family retreat reimagines the traditional Maine camp with a colorful, eclectic, and decidedly elevated point of view.

Designed as a welcoming escape from city life for a growing, multigenerational family, the vision was to create a home that feels like a hug—a place where grown children, grandchildren, dogs, and granddogs could gather, unwind, and make lasting memories.

What began as a sprawling white spec house has been transformed into a vibrant, personality-filled home through thoughtful architectural details, custom built-ins, bold wallpapers, rich textiles, and an artful mix of old and new. Treasures collected over a lifetime of travel mingle with vintage finds, playful patterns, and unexpected pops of color, creating interiors that feel beautifully layered, lived-in, and entirely their own.

From cozy gathering spaces filled with beloved objects to a whimsical little sleeping nook tucked away for the newest grandchild, every corner has been thoughtfully considered. The result is a home that balances sophistication with a sense of playfulness—one that welcomes sandy paws, embraces family traditions, and celebrates the joy of being together.
