    One week away. 🎨 Upstate Art Weekend returns One week away. 🎨 

Upstate Art Weekend returns June 25–29 — five days, 160+ artists, galleries, studios, and museums open across the Hudson Valley and Catskills. 

We rounded up the highlights and everything you need to plan your weekend. Check out today's post on #AroundtheValley for all the details - link in bio.
    How do you design a custom home that is not only i How do you design a custom home that is not only ideal for the site but also a personal sanctuary for its inhabitants? 

For our Cat Hill project in Kerhonkson, the design process started by getting to know our client—an avid marathon runner, businesswoman, and art collector. She needed a retreat that celebrated her journey and supported her passions. 

Swipe through to see how our design team @studiommarchitect brought her vision to life! 

From early in the design process, Studio MM's goal was to create "magic moments" playing with shifting perspectives, light, and shadow. To respond to the steep, dramatic topography of the site, the glass-enclosed fitness studio was pulled away from the main living space in the home. Connected by an art-filled gallery, the studio extends over the ridge, giving the illusion of floating out among the trees. 

Which "magic moment" in this home is your favorite? Let us know in the comments! 👇

    Custom living is in the details. The glass living Custom living is in the details. The glass living area at Kaat Cliffs didn't happen by accident — it started with a client who loved Philip Johnson's iconic Glass House, and a design team at @studiommarchitect who listened.
Working through four design schemes, the team explored how to balance complete transparency in the living spaces with solid, private retreats for the rest of the home. The result: a glass box at the heart of the house, anchored by a stone fireplace, with gravel decks extending off both sides so the Catskills landscape flows through from every angle.
You see the trees. You feel the light shift. You never lose the view — and you never lose your privacy either.
This is what it looks like when a design team takes your inspiration and builds it around the way you actually live.
