Situated on three acres on Long Island’s North Shore, the site has access to Long Island Sound and its beach.
The design of this residence was influenced by the owner’s requirement to accommodate three generations of family. The key feature is a large indoor multi-functional space, surrounded by two wings containing the private spaces. This two-story central living, dining, entry and lounge space visually expands itself to the sound beyond and a private sculpture garden, which creates a real indoor/outdoor experience. This continuity of indoor to outdoor is also reinforced by using the same materials inside and out.
Visible from the sky, are the landscaped roof tops and ground level landscapes which blend into a homogeneous whole.
