From Dino Sanchez
A 700 sq ft cottage situated by the Delaware Bay in North Cape May, New Jersey. A complete interior renovation designed and built by its owner, Pennsylvania based designer, Dino Sanchez. The cottage serves as a retreat for the designer and his wife and two children. The design is a nod to old fishing ship interiors - utilitarian, efficient and meant to age well over time. Steering clear of overt beach themes, the cottage is outfitted with more subtle references to coastal living. A mix of light and medium toned hardwoods recall washed out light and sand, railed headboards on custom built bed frames invite draped towels, and artwork references the textures of waves and water.
The space brings together the designer’s own line of furniture, home goods and cabinetry. The creative process, renovation and context of Cape May also served as an inspiration for new pieces added to his collection.
