In our June feature “A Sparkling Sanctuary,” we showcased Liener and Karla Temerlin’s beautiful home on the tip of Goose Rocks Beach. With breath-taking waterfront vistas on three sides, the house required a clean interior design that would accentuate the views, not compete with them. Mary Louise Norton of ML Norton/Windemere Studios and Brett Johnson of Maine Street Design designed sharp, nautical-inspired interiors that let the views shine through.

Several years ago I saw Kristin Richard on a television interview. She was speaking about her life post-Lance Armstrong and the healing path that she was on. Part of her recovery from the heartbreak of her divorce was to remember and to make a list of the things she loved most in life—the things that made her uniquely her, independent of her as a wife or mother. She suggested that everyone should have such a list of their own. A list of the things that bring us happiness and that make us inimitably ourselves.
