For this luxury home, the designer began by knocking down walls and consolidating rooms to allow light to penetrate the house’s interior, replacing some of the more masculine wood finishes with white plaster to establish an elegant, timeless look that leans more on European minimalism than old-school American grandeur. Sara Story is known for her admirable love for modern art incorporated into contemporary design. A combination that never goes out of style. With the aim of modernizing through shape and form in this interior design project, Sara Story opted for a neutral palette layered with cool tones and a sophisticated blend of materials, as well as a collection of museum-quality artwork and sculptural vintage and custom furnishings and accessories that are masterpieces in their own right.“The house had such a strong point of view when we entered the project,” says New York-based designer Sara Story of the classic shingle-style property, which was originally designed by renowned architecture firm Shope Reno Wharton in 1996.
