John Derian welcomes us into his magical ‘old world’ house in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. It was a rainy day in Provincetown, Massachusetts, when the designer John Derian first saw what would eventually become his house, an 18th-century Greek Revival number in the centre of town.
Built in 1789 for a sea captain who could keep on eye on happenings at sea from the front windows, the house was then extended backwards in the 19th century, which has now been transformed into a small shop for John's dreamy homewares. As a result of this evolutionary process, there are plenty of attractive quirks to the architecture and decoration, from the faded 20th-century wallpapers to the seashell and horsehair plasterwork. Watch the full episode of ‘Design Notes’ as we tour John Derian’s seaside sanctuary.
