Ocean House - Watch HIl, RI - Design Project


The Ocean House is the last of the grand Victorian hotels, where life is still lived much as it was a century ago, a tranquil timetable of tides and sun, teatime and cocktails, sailing regattas and bonfires on the beach.
Perched high on the bluffs of Watch Hill, Rhode Island, the reopening of the Ocean House is a rebirth of the last iconic New England seaside resort. The Ocean House has been meticulously reconstructed to pay tribute to its storied past and offer exceptional personal experiences for guests, members and residents. The Ocean House's celebrated hotel and residential accommodations, uncompromising service, beachfront location, and world-class amenities pay homage to New England's golden age of hospitality with timeless elegance and renewed civility. 
Robert Rizzo and Leslie Hecker of Cobble Court Interiors were asked by the new owners to decorate the penthouse suite on top of the Ocean House.  The suite consists of three ensuite bedrooms, den, formal living room, family room and a dramatic entry.     Below are a few of the shots taken as the project was almost completed:
