Project: Bluff House
Architects: Robert Young
Location: Montauk, New York, USA
Photographs by: Michael Moran
Robert Young has completed the Bluff House in Montauk, New York. This beautiful modern dwelling is overlooking Block Island Sound and is surrounded by lush greenery, a common theme in the designs of this studio, for example, the Kettle House project in Wainscott or the Mitchell Lane House project in Bridgehampton.
Perched on a bluff overlooking Block Island Sound, the property is a flag lot at the edge of a new subdivision, bordered on three sides by water, wetlands, and woods. The client asked us to design a house with a minimal impact on the pristine landscape, maximum exposure to the views and all the amenities of a year round vacation home.
The basic requirements of each space were considered integrally with the effects of sunlight, breezes and views. The house was conceived as a lens, continually framing and magnifying the subtle changes in the surrounding environment.
