Interior Designer Kristin Paton Transforms Nantucket Captain’s Cottage

We’re bringing you to the idyllic island of Nantucket for a look inside interior designer Kristin Paton’s beautifully restored 1700s home.

Five sea captains and their families have called the shingled cottage home over the last two hundred years… and as its new steward, Kristin was determined to celebrate its longstanding heritage. Her thoughtful redesign honors the home’s rich maritime history with repurposed materials, a stunning whaling mural wrapping the central chimney, and campaign-style decor that nods to the home’s seafaring roots. Enjoy!
