House Tour | Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan
The potter-designer and writer-fashion-commentator show T a few of their favorite things (and pastimes) at their summer home on Shelter Island, N.Y.
[JAZZ MUSIC] This is our house on Shelter Island that we built eight years ago. A foreboding black entry wall inspired by a trip to Japan. The living room. Jonny and I do a lot of our creative work here. I do my writing. He does his designing. Concrete screen I designed in my pottery studio. ‘60s plywood head planter by design legend Nicola. A nifty sculpture from my grandmother’s house called “Granny’s Dangler.” [JAZZ MUSIC] Purple lucite foot. Jonny’s banana. Brass rhino head by Sergio Bustamante. Vintage Preway fireplace. George Washington engraving defaced by moi. Our gym. This is our kitchen with a mural painted by our friend John-Paul Philippe. Genius. [JAZZ MUSIC] Giant sunburst mirror made from antique chair legs. Our view of the Peconic Bay. [JAZZ MUSIC] Slag glass around a tree trunk, inspired by a trip to Lotusland, California. Sculpture by John-Paul Philippe. This is where we sit and throw rocks at that stone, and I always own Simon in this competition. [JAZZ MUSIC] What? Here’s a tip: driftwood art. It took five minutes to make this. It’s very quick, very easy. Thanks for coming! Now go home!
