A well-wrought structure speaks for itself — that’s the prevailing wisdom among designers. But they know there is always more work to be done. In this newly constructed beach house in Amagansett, New York, the double-height living room called for some intervention, and Damon Liss smartly selected pieces that would “hit a balance between the airy volume and creating an intimate living space.”
A vintage Danish highback chair from Madsen & Schubell elevates the seating area; the statement-making ceiling fixture by Ted Abramcyk echoes the curves of an important suite of Pierre Guariche dining chairs from 1stdibs; and together they lend the room exactly the relaxed sophistication Liss was after.
