"It had been layered by so many different renovations, so there were Victorian details and Neo-Georgian details-it just looked like a hodgepodge," Sebastian explains. "It was the perfect time to abstract everything and start from scratch. And I thought it could be nice for every room to have its own identity. It's a good model to get people to keep coming back, so they can experience a different room every time they stay."
"All those tiles are made by hand, so they have a lot of movement and there's a lot of variety in the color," says Sebastian. "It doesn't just feel flat or lifeless; every tile has a story, and that enhances the overall experience for guests."
George's own creations-like folding white oak screens and wooden X-shaped lamps-are peppered in for a handmade touch. The result is an entirely fresh approach to coastal design-far from seaside tropes-that we're eager to replicate.
