This Dutchess County, NY residence—set near the Webatuck—was transformed into a restful, contemporary home defined by comfort, clarity, and a quietly elevated sensibility.

The renovation focused on enhancing the existing architecture with thoughtful refinements that bring cohesion throughout. The kitchen—kept largely intact—received a subtle color wash and selective updates that brighten the space while preserving its original layout.

Across the home, a layered palette of whites creates depth and softness, avoiding the coldness often associated with minimal design. The living room centers on a welcoming hearth framed by gentle curves and tactile furnishings. In the primary suite, a sculpted stone soaking tub, updated finishes, and custom millwork elevate everyday rituals with crisp, calming precision.

Designed with livability and long-term ease in mind, this project’s design approach reflects an understated, high-performance residential design in New York’s Hudson Valley.
