Jenny Wolf, a Manhattan-based interior designer and her husband, John Wolf, were looking for a large house in the Hamptons with an open floor plan. What they bought was a small, dark farmhouse from the 19th century with a beautiful garden. Jenny went right to work making the house feel bigger, adding comfortable and stylish furnishings, getting rid of the attic, allowing 6 more feet of vaulted space, exposing wood beams downstairs, painting the walls white, and the floors, except in the kitchen, were given a coat of pale green.

Beginning in April I am starting a new series:
LIVE BEAUTIFULLY. I am asking different designers and visionaries to
answer the question, "What does LIVING BEAUTIFULLY mean to you?" or "How
do you LIVE BEAUTIFULLY?" The answer could be as simple as fresh
flowers, fresh sheets and white towels, or "Tucking a handwritten note
in my child's lunch, I surround myself with people who have ___
characteristics, humility, compassion, creativity, or to LIVE
BEAUTIFULLY my advice is..., or Lessons I've learned..." or answering
the question What makes a day in a BEAUTIFUL LIFE for you? "Starting
with a perfect cup of coffee, a stop by the local art museums to see the
new..., lunch with my daughter, dinner on the terrace.." As you can see
it is very open ended. However, with different voices and backgrounds in
this series, I believe it will inspire us to LIVE BEAUTIFULLY.
