6 SUMMER 2020 Nancy E. Berry, Editor P.S. If you have a home design or landscape project that you would like to share, send me an email at nberry@nshoremag.com. A S WE MOVE THROUGH THE VARIOUS PHASES OF reopening the state, one thing is for certain: We will all be staying home more this summer than we have in the past. And after being inside for more than three months, we probably all can see a change or two we would like to make in our homes and landscape, whether it is an updated kitchen, a new office space, a family room, a container garden, or simply a fresh coat of paint on the walls. We hope this issue gives you ideas and inspiration to enhance and enliven your summer living spaces. We visit a container garden in Beverly overlooking the coast designed by David Winston of Winston Flowers. The carefully curated containers define spaces and offer visual cues for transition points throughout the landscape. Greg Southard of Riverfront Landscape creates an outdoor oasis on the Merrimack River, complete with an outdoor kitchen with all the amenities you might hope for, a fire pit, and even a shibui house and plenty of seating areas for lounging in the summer sun. Designer Andra Birkerts and Epstein Joslin Architects design a bold and breathtaking house on the coast in Rockport. Birkerts flexes her design muscles to create interiors full of color, texture, and form. She plays with opposites masterfully—inside/outside, formal/ informal, neutral/colorful—while never detracting from the spectacular sea views. SV Design creates the perfect vacation house for a North Shore family. The home, located on Lake Winnipesaukee, offers all the amenities and charm one might want in a rustic retreat. Exposed timbers, interior barn doors, and fieldstone chimneys make for a cozy retreat in summer or winter. OLSON LEWIS + Architects and CM Ragusa Builders reimagine a home on the coast in Manchester-by- the-Sea, and the outcome is impeccable. The team, including the homeowners and landscape designer Gregory Lombardi Design, work together to create a sanctuary on the water. For this issue, we also spoke to local home décor shops on how they have weathered the COVID-19 storm. Now more than ever, these local businesses need our support, so please shop local. Enjoy the summer, and we will see you in the fall with our Best of the North Shore Home Awards.
