I was delighted to find that Elle Decor featured Rita Norena Schrager's Southampton home, "inspired by the snowy palette of the Delano Hotel." Yes, the last name is no coincidence. Ms. Schrager's ex-husband is famed hotelier Ian Schrager.
The Delano is absolutely one of my favorite hotels and given that I was reading while en route to South Florida, I found the article very apropos.
My first reaction was to second-guess just how much inspiration The Delano actually provided. After all, one is heavily influenced by the surrounding Art Deco area, while the other is, well, Hamptons-style! Upon review, however, there are some interesting correlations. What do you think?

So what do you think? See any similarities? Regardless, I'll take either.
