Overtly Minimalist Houses

MB Architecture Built a Two-Storey Residence in the Hamptons

— March 21, 2018 — Art & Design
New York-based studio MB Architecture created a simple and minimalist house design with a gabled roof, a pale timber frame and an overall rustic aesthetic. The home in Amagansett lacks distinctive embellishments. The simplicity of the design is accentuated, as the architectural work seeks to minimize the visual impact of an area that has been recently infested with kitsch mansions. While the minimalist house's appearance is non-expressive, its exterior does not take away from the grassy areas and lush trees that surround the property.

The interior takes cues from modern design with homey and cottage-inspired elements. The interior furnishings offer a strong contrast from the plain exterior—from curvy green love seats to contemporary low-hanging designer lamps, MB Architecture definitely put creative emphasis and thoughtful planning into every single aspect of the minimalist house.
