FLEXIBILITY FOR3 GENERATIONS
Paul Masi says he isn’tbothered by the fact thatthe East Hampton
residence he designed appearsboth strangely familiar andshockingly unorthodox. That’ssort of what he was aiming at.
The style, which he calls“modern regional,” wasmeantto evoke the connected barns ofthe area— those pragmaticstructures that were added ontothrough the years according to a
farmer’s changing needs. But thefinished product, designed bythe BatesMasi + Architects inEastHampton, also had tomeetthe needs of a sophisticatedresidence.
“This area has a particularcharacter, and as a designeryou should be aware of it andcontinue the evolution of it,”Masi says. The structure re-ceived an Archi commendationin the Residential Single Over$3 Million category.
The home was built for anolder couple to accommodate
visits from children and grand-children. Its multiple buildings,which include an entertain-ment space, living and diningrooms, a kids’ area and a mas-ter section for the owners, are
arranged around a centralgarden. Each area was de-signed so that sections of thehouse can be closed off forprivacy or expanded to accom-modate everyone.

HONORING THE RANCH
TheCDRStudio architects taskedwith renovating a sprawling ranchhome in Sands Point had a real
Cinderella story on their hands. Theirproblemwas that the homewas stalledin the scullerymaid part of the tale.
“The client wanted to keep theranch-style form honorable instead ofturning it into something like aMcMansion,” says Jon Dreyfous, thepartner-in-charge architect at theManhattan-based firm.
Several renovations over the years hadtransformed the home into a darkwar-ren of rooms and hallways setwith smallwindows. The good newswas the inte-riorwas dominated by awhite terrazzofloormade of a durable, high-end com-posite usually used in office buildings.
CDR stripped down the interior tocreate an expansive open space. Toincrease the natural lighting, the archi-tects added “light scoops’’ (boxlikestructures that are equipped with a
window) facing in various directionsto allow light in without adding heat.One takes advantage of morning lightand the other afternoon light.
Expanding the airiness, they added9-foot-high sliding glass doors all alongthe home’s rear, making it virtually agiant picturewindow.This created avisual connectionwith thewoodsybackyard filledwith old-growth trees.
To soften up things inside, theyinstalled interior partitions and ceilingsections made of blackened whitecedar created using an ancient Japa-nese technique called “shou-sugi-ban.”This is where wood is charred,cleaned, then finished with natural oilsto make it weather resistant. Theentire house was re-clad in this mate-rial, which also was used for the back-yard fence and an expansive deckoverlooking the outdoor pool.
In the end, the scullery maid be-came the princess — an Archi winnerin the Residential Single Family Under$1 Million category.
POTATO BARNVERNACULAR
The family home thatSagaponack architectNick Martin was asked to
renovate in East Hampton hadsome daunting challenges. Itwas situated on a small lotwith restrictive setbacks. Theowners gave him a tightbudget, a short time line andasked that it be revitalized as amodernistic house with a nodto the village aesthetic.
“We were able to accomplishthis employing a palette ofrefined plaster, Europeanwalnut, pickled white oak,cedar, glass and steel to createa rich and dynamic modernspace,” he says.
The home, which receivedan Archi commendation in theResidential Single $1 Million-$3Million category, was designedto have a beach house motifand an open space evoking thearea’s potato barn vernacularof long, minimalist forms. The
house features lots of windowslooking out on the added swim-ming lap pool along with aglass-front gabled entrancethat creates a dramatic intro-duction to the interior.
Each area of the house opensonto different landscapedspaces. All Martin Architects,P.C., homes are “green,” usingpassive and active energy-effi-cient methods, Martin says.This included features such asthermally insulated glass and ageothermal heat pump system.

ENERGY EFFICIENT ANDSTORM RESISTANT
For years, people at the UP Studiohave been trying to stir up interestin placing sustainable buildings in
the walkable downtowns of Long Is-land. Finally, they came up with a sure-fire plan to get one built.
“We decided to do it ourselves,”explains John Patrick Winberry, oneof the Long Island City firm’s chiefarchitects.
With no restrictions on style or con-tent, the UP designers created a uniqueresidence in Long Beach — on a vacantlot — with an emphasis on green effi-ciency coupled with storm protection.This so impressed one couple searchingfor a home that they bought it before itwas even completed. Considering howmuch is packed into the home, whichresembles a black cube supported on
one side by a white box, this isn’t hardto understand.
UP architects Adam Wanaselja,Jeffrey Ramirez and Winberrydesigned the home around a dedi-cated core that provides access topower and plumbing as well as heat-ing and cooling elements. This core“stack” allowed them to use the outly-ing parts for living space.
The first level, raised to accommodatea storm surge, is reserved for a garage andmud room.Above this are the kitchen andfamily room, alongwith an office and aguest bedroom.Amaster bedroomandtwo secondary bedrooms occupy the toplevel. The balconies are positioned to beshady during summermonths and sunnyinwinter.
The homemeets all new code require-ments and FEMAstandards, such as usingstorm-ratedwindows,Winberry says. Itwas designed primarily with flat exterior
surfaces tominimize exposure to highwinds like the ones that camewithsuperstormSandy.
Its crowning feature is a roof deck onthe ocean-facing side, with space forsolar panels on the northern half.
This house, designed by BatesMasi + Architects, plays off theconnected barns of local farms.

Two words describemost of the entriesand winners in the53rd annual ArchiAwards recognizingthis year’s best
architectural designs on LongIsland.
Think modern.“I don’t believe there is any
particular trend headed in thatdirection,” says James Prisco,president of the Long Islandchapter of the American Insti-tute of Architects, which be-stows the awards. “It’s justsomething the judges liked thisyear.”
Recognized as the profes-sion’s premier local event, thecompetition is limited toprojects conceived and builton Long Island as well as thosebuilt elsewhere by residentarchitects. Structures built onLong Island by nonlocal archi-tects also are eligible. Winnersreceive a 13-inch, Oscar-likestatue that combines a T-square, an arch and a three-sided face.
The 108 projects sent in for2017 were a record, about a 25percent jump, says executivedirector Ann LoMonte.
Here are five entries, includ-ing some that were winnersand others that received com-mendations.
ON THE COVERON THE COVER
DON’T BLOCK THE VIEW
The designers at Resolution: 4Architecture faced an interestingpuzzle when they were asked to
build a North Fork beach house inLaurel. Specifically, how do you put astructure in the middle of a narrow lotwithout obscuring the water view. Theanswer: Lift it up.
“We didn’t want to have the housebe a dead end when you approached,”says Joseph Tanney, who runs theManhattan business with partnerRobert Luntz. “We wanted it to be athreshold to the weekend. A Zen zonewhere you could see the bay and thewater and the sand.”
Steel beams were used to hoist thehome into the air, creating room forcovered parking and a workshop. Thehome was built to house a family’sthree generations — a couple fromBrooklyn with two young daughtersand grandparents who live in Floridaand like to spend the summer monthson Long Island. The addition of the
workshop was a request by the grandfa-ther, and the rest of the open spaceserves as a shady play area for thegirls. There also is an outdoor shower.
Access to the house is provided bytwo sets of outdoor stairs. Things suchas custom-built cabinetry and built-inbeds helped make the most of the 1,350square feet of interior living space. Anopen courtyard deck in the center andfloor-to-ceiling windows in the sur-rounding rooms keep the space openfor views of the Great Peconic Bay.The house has three bedrooms, includ-ing one equipped with bunk beds forthe girls. The kitchen, dining andliving rooms are communal areas.
This was a custommodular home, atype of structure their firmhas success-fully used in other residences, the archi-tect says. It allows a higher level of pre-dictability of howmuch a home is goingto cost and how long it’s going to take tofinish and can lower the price by 10 to 30percent, Tanney says. The house receivea commendation in the ResidentialSingleUnder $1Million category.
