Georgica, East Hampton +
The newly constructed complex in Georgica presents challenges and exciting possibilities within its expansive setting of more than four acres. Integrating seamlessly into the natural landscape, the design carefully weaves two driveway entries into the site, ensuring a harmonious flow throughout the property.
One of the key successes lies in the deliberate division of the broader expanse into distinct, functional spaces that cater to various activities and aesthetics. Landscape centerlines and focal points have been meticulously aligned with the architectural nuances of the house, creating a cohesive visual narrative that blends the built environment with the surrounding nature.
Furthermore, the thoughtful grading of the property enhances its usability and aesthetic appeal, while strategically placed plantings at the edges effortlessly merge into the broader natural setting, fostering a sense of continuity and tranquility.
A particularly striking feature is the allee of trees planted in gravel, which serves a functional purpose and introduces a sculptural and formal element to the landscape. This addition, completed in 2014, underscores the commitment to practicality and beauty, offering residents and visitors an immersive experience that celebrates the harmony between architecture and nature.
