Was invited to a fabulous dinner dance at a new private yacht club while on vacation in Nantucket. The Great Harbor Yacht Club – a place for Nantucket residents who love yachting, boating, all things ocean sea related and who love socializing with others with the same inclinations – had its opening party this past weekend. A really lovely event. The club was recently finished and members opened up the doors to guests to celebrate. Quite a party!

During the cocktail hour, I said hello to our hosts and then dashed inside the Clubhouse for a tour…

The main sitting room or reception room was the first that I saw. Decorated to the hilt this club room speaks of all thing beach and nautical. The colors and tones are all subtle in hue…with lots of neutrals, whites and blues used in the decor. The fabrics feel or look like natural linens, cottons and even denims….and lots of wonderful texture in the rich materials used.. A traditional room that did not at all feel stodgy…it feels fresh, comfortable and very elegant all at once.

According to the club’s website, the inside of the Clubhouse, it turns out, was conceived and decorated by Boston interior design firm Gauthier/Stacy.

My favorite piece in the room is the striped round ottoman with tassels under the classic secretary (see below). Also love the flowers in the room…orchids and hydrangea – two of my favorites!

Off the to the side of the great room, an old fashioned antique looking roll top writing desk allows for a discreet but polished work area in this club’s formal living room. A whimsical striped ottoman with blue and white tassels is nestled underneath and could act as a desk chair. (above)

As a reminder this is a yacht club and boating is the order of the day, this ship in a bottle provides the perfect nautical accessory to the great room. (above)
