A Picnic in the Country

The Parlor
The 1910 house overlooks the Catskill Mountains. Elliott, left, and Daisy are on the sofa. The papier-mâché desk and chairs were made by Phoebe Sung and painted by daughters Freya and Coco. The zebra painting is by McGregor, and the flower painting is by Kayo Lennar. Cold Picnic’s Sweetie rug is on the floor.
The Main Bedroom
Cold Picnic’s Disappearing Daffodil wallpaper and upholstery are in play. The painting is by Gloria Roberts.
The Guest Bedroom
The chair is Milo Baughman, and the nightstand is vintage Donald Deskey, also with a lollipop lamp. The rug, wallpaper, curtains, and upholstery are Cold Picnic’s Freckle Flower.
The Study
The lollipop lamp is vintage, and the room is covered in Cold Picnic’s Holy Smoke rug, wallpaper, and upholstery.
A farmhouse was always Phoebe Sung and Peter Buer’s dream. But more than that: “We wanted land and space that our children could continue to return to for the rest of their lives,” Sung says. That got harder, but also felt more necessary, when the pandemic hit and they were holed up at home in Ridgewood, Queens, with a young child, dogs, and an ongoing plague of roaches.
