Designer Heidi Caillier and her client Colleen DeCourcy met online through The Expert, a platform for video consultations with interior designers. They decided to work together on DeCourcy's new home in East Hampton, which was a builder's spec house lacking character. Caillier furnished the home with unique pieces, including BDDW furniture and tiles, and commissioned a mural and tapestry-like canvas. The home combines classic and modern elements, creating a moody and multilayered space. DeCourcy wanted the home to feel assembled over time and hired a local garden designer to rewild the landscape.
