First offering of this award winning published Bridgehampton compound for summer 2022. Upon entering the nearly 1.4 +/- acre grounds one is surrounded in privacy with the soaring hedgerows, numerous specimen trees and bucolic gardens. Young Projects designed Six Square House as an addition to the lot’s historic 1850 farmhouse, which is located at the front of the property, and added a new pool house, gunite pool, and ipe deck at the property’s rear. The farm house features 5 bedrooms, living room, den, dining room, finished lower level and a stylish chef’s kitchen which leads to the double height great room with floor to ceiling windows and doors overlooking the grounds and the guest house. Approaching Six Square House from the front property provides a view of the garage and living room modules, separated by a polished concrete path that leads directly into the home’s focal point: a triangular courtyard. Starting with the simple vernacular typology of a barn, the hybrid roofscape of the connected squares ebbs and flows as a new dynamic figure, contemporary in its language but timeless in its origin. The residence is made up of six 24’x24′ gabled modules, arranged to align roof ridges and create continuity from one module to the next. In contrast, each module’s roof eaves flow upward and downward, which result in a variety of undulating surfaces and unexpected sight lines across the exterior and interior of the home. The living areas and kitchen are linked, resolving as a large open space that emphasizes the undulating flow of the ceiling – a result of the irregular roofscape above. Living spaces open directly onto a landscape designed for entertaining: central courtyard, meadow, pool house and gunite pool. The kitchen, located at the center of the house, is adjacent to the triangular courtyard and looks through the open porch that frames views of landscape beyond. The 2 bedrooms feature framed views of the site’s mature and gnarled trees for privacy; in particular the primary bedroom offers a direct view to an old purple beech tree. Overall, Six Square House strikes an elegant, innovative balance across both interiors and exteriors:
