A midcentury French cocktail table and a custom-made sofa grace the living room; RH lanterns flank the fireplace.

Manhattan-based interior designer David Kleinberg in his 1966 Mercedes 230SL at his East Hampton, New York, vacation home.

Kleinberg added a pergola-covered walkway at the front of the house.

In the sitting room, painted a Benjamin Moore gray, a Darren Almond photograph hangs above a vintage console topped by a 1950s French lamp; the walnut bookcase is by David Kleinberg Design Assoc., and the Bielecky Brothers wicker chairs are cushioned in a Zimmer + Rohde stripe.

Surrounding a living room doorway are two Richard Serra prints, one displayed over a mahogany cabinet by Paul László; the photograph in the hall is by Alejandra Laviada. Twin French Art Deco zebrawood side tables are joined by Art Deco armchairs covered in a Rogers & Goffigon fabric; the upholstery throughout the house was done by Anthony Lawrence-Belfair, the throw is from Homenature, and the raffia rug is by La Manufacture Cogolin.

A Barlow Tyrie bench punctuates the pool area, which features bluestone coping.

The kitchen is outfitted with cerused-oak cabinetry, Poul Henningsen pendant lights from Design Within Reach, and a Wolf cooktop; the counters and backsplash are made of Pietra Cardosa stone.

The dining room’s oak table is set with Ralph Lauren Home hurricane candleholders, and the 1960s chairs from R. E. Steele Antiques are covered in a Perennials fabric; the walls are painted a Benjamin Moore white.

Kleinberg's desk is a vintage U.S. military design, and the circa-1956 armchair is by Gustavo Pulitzer; the rug is by Patterson Flynn Martin.

In the master bedroom, a pair of sconces from Circa Lighting (one is shown) flank the bed, which is upholstered in an antique textile and dressed in RH linens; the small artwork on the chest is a Vija Celmins print.
