Projects

The firm’s first ground-up residential project, this home in Montauk, New York was designed as a retreat to create meaningful connections to the environment.

“For a project in 2000, Young climbed a tree on a property, finding views of the ocean. Following this site visit, he designed a new interpretation of a type of modernist building commonly found around Montauk: the upside-down house. Replicating the vista from his treetop perch, Young’s creation arrays most living spaces on the upper level, where his clients enjoy those superlative ocean views.”

Clad in cedar, ipe and board-formed concrete, Young chose materials that would patina over time from the climate of the natural environment and further emphasize the home’s connection to the site.
