Tucked away in a leafy enclave of Westchester County in the state of New York, is this luxury retreat . The Westchester home reflects Rachel’s love of the serenity and simplicity inherent in Japanese style. “The key elements are based on Japanese architecture, where each room leads the viewer into the next space. The house is full of pocket and sliding doors so that you have the option of opening and closing a room depending on what is going on. The materials are very clean and calming,” says Rachel.
“I wanted the design to flow and have the ability to change from open to private space depending on the activity. ‘Mother knows best’ is very true in my case. The design in our Westchester home enables an easy transition between our homes in London and New York”
