Modern Rural Farm Houses

The Georgica Cove House Features a Series of Connected Gabled Structures

— May 16, 2018 — Art & Design
Bates Masi Architects created the new Georgica Cove House, a modern home that features views of the neighbouring ocean.

Mixing inspiration from East Hampton design and classic rural farm buildings, the home has a series of connected gabled structures to mimic the look of an old-aged bard. The exterior is clad with oversized cedar panels that blend the traditional barn facade in a modern and luxurious way. The interior is divided among multiple units, allowing for a cozy yet spacious floor plan that naturally creates a retreat for guests. Each room is arranged around the central courtyard to promote living spaces that flow naturally to the outdoors.

The Georgica Cove House resembles a traditional farmhouse from the outside, offering a modern interior design for an interesting contrast.
