This zen-inspired beach house was designed by Backen & Backen Architects in collaboration with BK Interior Design, nestled seaside in the Hamptons, New York. This multi-phase project is exemplary of creating a connection to the outdoors, a love of materiality, and redefining luxury to a subtle and simplistic palette, while holding true to the design principles we hold dear: designing for context, purpose, and place.

When you take a handful of sea glass and sand, you get an incredible range of neutrals, and always these pinks and blues. It’s like we took a handful of the beach and built a color palette around it. A combination of reclaimed wood, bluestone, and beachy white wood planks give spaces a sense of unpretentious luxury, intending to strike a balance of the space feeling furnished and full, yet still leaving a lot of room for the accent pieces to hold their own.
