An Outdated Montauk Home Becomes Modern Retreat

Once an outdated house in Montauk is now a beautiful modern retreat that was designed by Décor Aid on a minimal budget. The homeowner couple wanted the beach home to feel serene, but with playful elements and moments of glam. Crisp white walls are paired with grey floors and black details keeping the interior cohesive and contemporary.
