Architecture Design of Daniels Lane House

Description About The Project

Daniels Lane House designed by BMA Architects, sited on a narrow, one acre, oceanfront lot. The design of this house was one of the first projects in the Village of Sagaponack to be affected by the 2010 revision to FEMA flood elevations. Also, require a first floor elevation of approximately 17 feet above sea level with a maximum height allowance of 40’. And all construction required to be located landward of the Coastal Erosion Hazard Line. The location within a high velocity (VE) wind zone added to the planning and structural challenges.

Moreover, the two story travertine entry façade accentuated by a six foot real and detailed to appear to hover off the ground, accentuating the condition of the elevated entry. A ‘cut and fold’ in the wall plane bends to allow for one large glass opening. From which an over scaled, wood aperture containing the main stair landing cantilevers. In a nod to Louis Kahn’s Richards Laboratories at the University of Pennsylvania, a layer of service spaces run parallel to the wall plane create a threshold prior to reaching the horizontal expanse of the ‘served’ entertainment spaces of the open plan living room, dining and kitchen. Also, fifteen foot wide, floor to ceiling, glass sliding panels maximize the ocean view and open the house onto the ocean side patio and pool.

On the other hand, the second floor imagined as a travertine and glass ‘drawer’ floating above the glass floor below. Three identical children’s bedrooms run from west to East. Also, setting a rhythm that punctuated by a master bedroom balcony that projects out from the wall plane, clad in the same afromosia wood as the stair landing. Interior materials include poured in place concrete floors, Calacutta marble cladding and afromosia millwork.
