Kligerman Architecture & Design

Custom designed and hand crafted iron balusters by David DeSantis alongside a vintage marble console and 1940s Gio Ponti vessels. The kind of detail and craftsmanship that gives a new house the weight and character of one that has stood for a hundred years.

Designed for a young family on Nantucket, this beach house draws from the island’s shingle style traditions while creating a more relaxed and contemporary way of living by the water. Gardens, porches, and paths connect the house to the surrounding landscape, with views unfolding gradually toward the ocean.

Inside and out, the materials were chosen to feel familiar and enduring, weathered shingles, painted wood, soft textiles, and a palette shaped by sand, sky, and sea. The result is a house designed less around formality and more around the rhythms of summer living, and the wildlife that passes through it.

At Nushka Hoo, the living room was designed around the experience of being there, windows open to the salt air, a fire going in the evening, wood surfaces that gather wear and character over time. The materials were chosen as much for their texture and scent as for their appearance, drawing from the old seaside cottages of Rhode Island that shaped our understanding of what a house by the water should feel like.

Built for our family in Weekapaug, the house reflects a long tradition of coastal New England living, informal, durable, and meant to be used every day.

A house that extends beyond its walls. Paths, gardens, and shaded spaces create places to walk, pause, and spend time outdoors, moving easily between landscape and home. Open and modern in its planning, yet grounded in the traditions of the Hamptons, it offers a way of living that feels connected and considered.

Honored to see this Hamptons home featured in Architectural Digest. Thank you to the entire AD team for telling its story so beautifully.

From the very first sketch, this house was a true collaboration. Thank you to our client, whose vision and rigor shaped each of the many decisions a project like this asks for. To Bryan O'Sullivan Studio, whose interiors gave the rooms their warmth and character. And to Deborah Nevins, whose landscape carries forward the spirit of Sir Edwin Lutyens through a quiet dialogue between house and garden.

Inspired by the legacy of Lutyens, the home draws on steeply pitched rooflines, weighty chimneys, brick and local stone, and carefully composed windows. As our partner Joe Carline puts it, it reflects the belief that “true luxury resides in the quiet perfection of proportion and the honest expression of materials.”

Deeply grateful to everyone who helped bring this home to life.

Set on a rolling site above the Atlantic, the architecture opens outward, framing horizon, water, and sky as part of the experience of living. A dialogue between past and present, where tradition is not repeated, but carried forward.

A place to sit with a cup of coffee and take in the morning air. Set just off the house, these chairs look out toward the bay, where the light shifts and the breeze carries in from the water. Simple moments, shaped by where you are.
