"Alex Papachristidis Designs an Eclectic Vacation Home in the Hamptons\nDesigner Alex Papachristidis crafts elegant yet decidedly relaxed interiors for the Hamptons house he shares with his extended family\nDecorator Alex Papachristidis at his family's home in Bridgehampton, New York.\nThe formality of the house\u2014with its traditional cedar shingles and Marvin windows\u2014is offset by an Ugo Rondinone tree sculpture that dominates the front drive; Edmund Hollander designed the landscaping.\nThe entrance hall features a gilt lantern from Marvin Alexander and hand-stenciled flooring by Optical Grays; the walls are lined with Rose Tarlow Melrose House wallpaper.\nIn the living room, painted in Benjamin Moore's Linen White, 19th-century gilded stools are placed next to sofas upholstered in a Clarence House fabric, with pillows of a silk velvet from Le D\u00E9cor Fran\u00E7ais; a Charles Arnoldi ink drawing surmounts the fireplace, and the curtains are of a Larsen fabric from Cowtan &amp;amp; Tout.\nA living room wall displays two Roman bronze busts from Kentshire and a Mona Kuhn photograph of Venice; the leopard-print silk velvet on the armchairs is by Brunschwig &amp;amp; Fils.\nThe loggia's Cowtan &amp;amp; Tout wall covering serves as a backdrop for two 18th-century grisaille paintings, each hanging above a Bielecky Brothers wicker daybed with cushions of a Clarence House fabric.\nIn the family room, the sectional sofa, clad in a Fortuny fabric, frames a pair of Papachristidis-designed tables; a Colefax and Fowler fabric from Cowtan &amp;amp; Tout was used for the window shades, and the rug is from Beauvais Carpets.\nA Prussian chandelier is suspended above the dining room's 19th-century French table from R. Louis Bofferding; the chairs are from Philippe Farley Antiques, the walls are sheathed in a Nobilis faux-bois paper, and the rug is by Stark.\nThe kitchen stools are by Laura Kirar for McGuire, and the blue-and-white china is by Mottahedeh; the range is by Wolf.\nWalls painted in Benjamin Moore's Pleasant Valley contrast with an Adam Ball canvas in the master bedroom; the cabinets are 18th century, and the bed is upholstered in a Brunschwig &amp;amp; Fils silk velvet.\nTeddy, a Yorkshire terrier, perches on leopard-spot bed steps in Papachristidis's room; the commode is 18th-century French, the throw is by Anichini, and the carpeting is by David Easton for Beauvais.\nIn a guest room, the antique quilt and Clarence House\u2013fabric canopy on the British Khaki Collection bed by Robert Lighton share a leafy motif; the carpeting is from Beauvais.\nTwo 19th-century Italian stone statues watch over the outdoor pool.\nClaude Lalanne's bronze Pomme graces the lawn."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
