Mabley Handler
Mabley Handler Interior Design was founded in the Hamptons when Jennifer Mabley, already an accomplished interior designer in New York City, was commissioned to design and decorate a house in the estate section of Southampton Village. The client had spent many summers visiting her grandparents at their home in Southampton, and yearned to return to her Southampton roots.
To capture the essence of the client’s childhood memories, the inspiration for the house was the classic traditional shingle-style that Southampton was so well known for. Ms. Mabley worked hand-in-hand with a local architect to ensure that the house, situated on one of the village’s most picturesque tree-lined streets, truly paid homage to Southampton homes of the past.

Betty Wasserman
Wasserman has designed some of the most gorgeous homes in the Hamptons. She has been repeatedly covered by Hamptons Cottages & Gardens and Hamptons Haven for her award-winning designs. Beyond local recognition, Elle Decor’s Metropolitan Home Magazine awarded one of Wasserman’s Hamptons interior designs as Best of Year for 2007. Home design journalist, Elaine Green, describes this project as “decorating with appealing restraint to harmonize quietly with the nearby woodlands, pastures and seashore, the rooms show lots of natural wood and stone along with plant motifs in the art and some of the textiles.”
Edging toward a color cousin, Wasserman included a red chair and a cranberry glass chandelier.” Whereas much of Wasserman’s Long Island work has been done in the Hamptons, particularly Southampton, East Hampton, and Bridgehampton, she also has created stunning vacation properties for those escaping Manhattan for the weekend in Sag Harbor and other in-land locales.
