Bluff House is a home located in Montauk, New York, and was completed by Robert Young Architecture & Interiors.
The interior elegantly reflects the nature that surrounds the home – Montauk is a popular tourist destination, boasting six state parks, and is famous for fishing and surfing – with its refined use of wood to characterize most spaces, creating a relaxed and sophisticated effect. 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.
