It's so funny how you can see an imagine and then end up seeing it again in a different context later that same day. That's what happened to me today. Earlier, I was reading my favorite blogs and Anna at
Absolutely Beautiful Things posted the cute little cottage above with a
link to an article about Steven Gambrel's guesthouse from New York Magazine.
The living room was the most dramatic aspect had many interesting pieces including (1) an early-twentieth-century Danish ship’s lantern as a chandelier, (2) framed vintage sea-creature prints above the sofa which Gambrel chose to floated in clear glass frames, (3) a Gambrel designed sofa covered in Manuel Canovas nubby oyster cloth, (4) a Belgium coffee table made of iron and slate, (5) armchairs found at the Paris flea market and covered in a shearling bed cover found in a flea market in Uruguay, (6) a sisal rug from Crate and Barrel, and (7) a wood stool covered in orange leather from Antwerp.
Then later that night, I was leafing through the new March 2008 issue of Town & Country magazine and all of the sudden I noticed that the models were sitting in the very same room! Obviously, I'm sure someone at T&C is friendly with Mr. Gambrel and decided his little guesthouse would make a perfect set for their fashion shoot. If you look closely, you'll notice that the green glass jug from the front of the house ends up in the photo too.
Gambrel renovated the cottage first before the main house, which can be seen on his website, and ended up loving the cozy environment which includes a tarpon from the 1920's above the fireplace, a ladder that leads to a sleeping loft and a shell found at a Hamptons garage sale.
The kitchen is also cozy but is only called upon for casual summer meals including corn on the cob which will be served on pewter plates.
It's easy to see why Town & Country would want to hang out in this chic little cozy cottage all day shooting a fashion spread. I wonder if Gambrel rents it to normal folks. I want to hang out there too!
