Sight Sea
A Hamptons home on a picturesque property wasn’t taking advantage of the available sightlines toward the oceanfront. With a series of deliberate architectural gestures, we were able to shift the views back to the water without disturbing much of the existing residence. The result is a visually cohesive renovation that provides the homeowner with a greater connection to nature.
RECLAIM VIEWS
The existing residence had many interior glimpses of the ocean, but was not fully
taking advantage of the panoramic ocean views available from the second floor. By designing a series of
small additions, the main gathering spaces and the primary bedroom were able to reclaim stunning vistas of
the neighboring Hamptons beaches.
FACADE DETAILING
After the extrusions are added, a series or rhythmic wood slats are wrapped
around the renovation’s facade to create a single architectural gesture. The exterior materials were chosen
to create consistency with other areas of the home including the home’s entry and a stunning modern addition
by Resolution 4 Architecture.
INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE
A soft and neutral interior material palette serves as a backdrop to the newly reclaimed panoramic views and
ties back to other areas of the home.
Bright white walls are paired with soft colored stone surfaces harking back to the tones and movement present
in the surrounding landscape. Our intention is to keep the focus on the stunning vegetation, sky and ocean
views beyond.
CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS
The custom Amagansett home addition began in early summer of 2021 with a rapid construction timeline which
requires hand-on construction administration support from our team.
