Walk-in wonder

KEY CONSIDERATIONS

After purchasing the home, this young family approached West of Main for some custom touches. They sought out a warm, welcoming, Hamptons-inspired abode, perfect for both entertaining and their work-from-home lifestyle. Here, we look at the elaborate walk-in closet areas attached to the master bedroom.

For this project, the team modified an empty bedroom to connect it to the primary suite - and transform it into a truly dreamy space.

LIFE MADE BETTER

Renovating, furnishing, and styling this home has improved life in many ways for the homeowners. "This couple travels quite a bit, and we wanted to make sure they had a beautiful space to come home to after their travels," says West of Main co-founder Sascha Lafleur.
