Steven Gambrel
Steven Gambrel, originally trained as an architect, creates timeless but comfortable spaces with a mix of classic and contemporary furnishings—the latter he often designs himself. His own house in Sag Harbor, a shuttered and white-picket-fenced 19th-century cottage, acts as a kind of gate to the property’s large garden out back. “As you walk up to the front door, you have a perfectly framed view of the water. It’s unexpected in that, as you get closer to the cove, the trees and boxwoods are situated in such a way that they frame the view and kind of confine you until you get released out into the edge.”
