Outdoor Spaces

Three Cape and islands designers offer luxurious ideas for your outdoor spaces.

New England Home's Cape & Islands 2010

We asked three Cape and islands designers to share their picks for the perfect outdoor space by choosing their favorite dining tables, seating, decorative accents and lighting.

KAREN BOORAEM

Karen Booraem, of Decorating Den Interiors, believes a well-designed house goes beyond surface style to reflect the passion of the person who lives there. She shares her own passion for design with clients to create warm, welcoming and timeless environments. EAST HARWICH, (508) 432-1228, HTTP://LOCAL.DECORATINGDEN.COM/KBOORAEM/

 

 

 

 

KATHLEEN HAY

If Kathleen Hay’s design work has a trademark “look,” it would have to be described—like the items she suggests for outdoor living—as clean, sophisticated, chic and always comfortable.

JOHN MURPHY

Martha’s Vineyard–based John Murphy, owner of Tracker Home Decor, believes in a restful interior with clean, comfortable lines. His decorating philosophy is simple: “I think your home should be filled with things—and people—that you really love.” EDGARTOWN, (508) 627-8725, WWW.TRACKERHOMEDECOR.COM
