The Long Island Residence is located in a rural community on the edge of the Long Island Sound. Approximately twenty-five miles from the heart of Manhattan, the area is known as a tranquil counterpoint for daily commuters seeking to escape the city's frenetic pace. The project is the result of a renovation seeking to both preserve and refine an existing dwelling that has stood on the site since 1961.
Here’s a sneak peak of our photoshoot of the Long Island Residence. The image, taken from the backyard at dusk, shows the renovated interior as well as the charred cedar rainscreen that replaced the old external façade.
