IN BRIDGEHAMPTON, NEW YORK, THIS OFFICIALLY INNOVATIVE HOME REIMAGINES BEACH LIFE. Use modern architectural strategies to embrace its natural environment by referencing the work of Oscar Niemeyer and Robert Böller Marx. Includes arranging the family's common space on the second floor and using floor-to-ceiling glass to maximize sunlight and sea views. The straightness of this house contrasts sharply with the curved shape of the pool pavilion, the stair fence, the kitchen island and the fenced landscape. The house is meant to celebrate art, including space-specific artworks such as three-sided murals and concrete relief walls.

The program innovates by reflecting on traditional solutions to maximize the ocean landscape. Unusually, most of the public spaces, including the kitchen, living room and dining area, are located on the upper level. THIS CONTRADICTS THE CONVENTION, AS THE CONVENTION GENERALLY STIPULATES THAT SUCH PUBLIC SPACES SHOULD BE PLACED ON THE FIRST FLOOR. The result of the public area is to enjoy the panoramic view of the sea in the nearby sand dunes.
