Blue Iris by Life House

An art collector's Greek Revival vacation estate with a lush garden patio infused with Portuguese design elements. In the late 1800s, an art collector settled into a Greek Revival vacation estate in the heart of Nantucket. A Patroness of the Arts, she fondly welcomed neighbors and travelers for intimate gatherings on her garden patio and invited local artists to use her home as their studio. We designed our House to reflect her love for the seaside, rustic Mediterranean design, Portuguese art, and hosting gallery fêtes.
