Manor of Style


The March issue of Vogue features Tory Burch's newly renovated Southampton estate. Built in 1929 by an industrialist, the Gatsby-esque manor was transformed by Burch's longtime friends, architect and designer Daniel Romualdez, and decorator Eve Hood. The neo-Georgian house was originally commissioned by traditionalist architects Hiss & Weekes and designed by society decorator Elsie Sloan Farley. Burch fell in love with the house while planning to remodel her previous Hamptons property following a flood. Unlike her last home, she was looking for a year round respite to enjoy on the weekends straying away from a 'seashore' theme and opting for a more traditional look instead.

I love the black and white floors

a relaxed vibe in the solarium with sisal furniture and blue and white pottery 

touches of coral to warm the room's light

custom Iznik inspired panels by Paris-based Iksel in the dining room

very traditional bedroom (I would have gone with different walls and bedding)

pool house

fabulous outdoor dining area
