Bates Masi completes the Stony Hill design project, which is a structural representation of the rich heritage of Amagansett. It rests between woodland nature and meadow areas as a home that is meant for a young family who are celebrating its roots.
The design is inspired by the location's agrarian history and deep connection to the early settlers. The design project was to bring life and nod to the history of the site through mindful architecture and landscape. It splits into different zones and is designed to meet contemporary design cues. The home is separated into smaller volumes that are meant for specific zones. This includes service spaces, guest homes, private areas, and more public spaces.
