ABOVE & FACING PAGE: The overall shape of this 8,500-square-foot house in Wainscott, New York, is like a clamshell, curving toward the ocean beyond. The design includes
three smaller pavilions attached by an elongated breezeway, almost as if three smaller beach houses––each with its own distinctive character––were joined at the hip.
The final combination doesn't express a single monolithic statement, but rather a diverse assortment of parts, stretched out to more than 210 feet in length to maximize
ocean f rontage and capture as many water views as possible. The western end of the home bends slightly to the north, offering entry through a 22-foot-high curtain wall
of tempered glass that, in turn, leads to an angular atrium with staircase and elevator.
