Inside a Magical Holiday Home Like No Other (House Tour)

[@TheLocalProject]

We hope you enjoyed the enchanting tour of East Hampton Modern by Workshop/APD! This Hamptons retreat, nestled in an agricultural setting, is a true testament to the beauty of blending contemporary architecture with the bucolic charm of farmland.

Living on Long Island and familiar with typical Hamptons new builds, this is a breath of fresh air. Kudos to Abby Lawless, the landscape designer who is open to transforming the landscape to support the wildlife and the natural landscape.

[@creativeaesthete]

Yes…completely. BIG time kudos to Abby Lawless!! She is a genius creative and really speaks with and for (channels!) the land!

[@nicoleeboo38]

the landscaping is to die for...so stunning

[@NathanFlorence]

i think one of the most magical yards ive ever seen

[@LaikikiSunny]

❤❤❤

[@ornelashtembari18]

This house does justice to the beauty of the outside that comes inside through the modern architecture. Modern living in harmony with the natural background. It’s well thought and even better executed. It really feels zen!

[@PacificOutdoor]

Shout out to the beautiful shot at 2:21. Also the simplicity of the pool as a natural extension of the breezeway is just gorgeous.

[@EnterSports1]

The artistic cohesion between the design team Architect and Builder is just impeccable!

[@bryansandiego2658]

Not normally a fan of the "all black modern farmhouse" look but man, this one is brilliant! Well designed, decorated, edited and narrated. Excellent house, site and video. Bravo!

[@Alex-eo9of]

Agreed. I think the gorgeous nature surrounding the home helps with the all black look

[@ExultantTJ]

I love every TLP fearured project. But man this one... this one stands apart. It is the most resonable, clean, practical, mindful yet BEAUTIFUL piece of architecture. Love the landscaping too. Oh my gosh. This house is posh.

[@mikama-w3r]

This is a spectacular house, in & out, with a magical landscape. Great job from the architecte and the client who embraced the designer’s vision.

[@danielk1403]

Well!... As a Mid Century Modernist, a MCM design specialist, and a MCM preservationist I usually feel that new-build contemporary homes often pale in comparison to the glittering heights achieved by the modern masters of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. However, this contemporary home is truly stunning!... Inspired in its conception and elegantly executed: a contemporary take on Modernism ripe with a seamless connection to its environment and a celebratory sense of place! WOW! Wonderful!... and that says a lot coming from an architecture snob like me who abhors the "clean-lined", stark and boxy mansions of recent years. Congratulations on a true work of architectural art! William Cody is smiling today. All the very best, Daniel Krog

[@biasanto]

I love the pool concept. It seems so peaceful

[@KofieBluejay]

Can we appreciate that for once, a rich American did not destroy their garden by cutting the grass and actually create a good ecological one? That’s really great! Very nice house.

[@CourtneyBishopPOA]

Yes 🙏🏻

[@imianco8079]

it has inspired me.. grass is so beautiful :)

[@lewiscleale5236]

mmmmmmmmmm........ticks!

[@KofieBluejay]

@@lewiscleale5236 At least some animals can live in it.

[@johnwhalen9264]

One Caveat...While appreciating the natural landscape, and overlapping grass into the pool area...I can't help but not thinking about the trillion little vampire ticks waiting to cause misery to whomever they bite. Unfortunately, that is the reality in the NE, especially the coastal communities like East Hampton and Montauk.

[@MariaPNW]

I was expecting to like the "style" of this modern home, but definitely not expecting to love it! Especially when I saw that it was set in the "Hamptons", where only the super rich snobs can go and/or live. But somehow this home's humble, approachable presence and natural raw beauty comes across as very welcoming, without a care for a guest's financial or social status. Of course the materials and finishes are premium, and in some cases rare, but they're not vulgar or too obvious. To the architect, designer, landscaper, and homeowner: Thank you for the thoughtful design and sharing your beautiful home with the rest of us mere mortals!

[@leandrocambuta7178]

The purity of simply watching this video😩 The house, the way the video was made, the environment, it's all just so pleasant

[@AnnMarieKing]

What a luxury to iterate a home and landscape design to utter perfection ... That is all.

[@LW-wg4ny]

My favorite homes are the ones that bring the outside in and this one does it seemlessly. What a tranquil place in the heart of nature. Not over the top either, every space is practical and utilized. And the black! I’ve been using black in my interior for many years, I’m happy the rest of the world is catching on to its rich beauty. Bravo!

[@louieb.1564]

one of the best TLP showcases in a while, what a nice house!

[@nikkilogan7726]

This home really exceeded my expectations! I never expected this home to be so magnificent despite its simplicity. Its giving modern family vacation home that can last for a lifetime! It doesn't feel its on a farm but rather its a home within the city. Really love this East Hampton home! Thank you Local Project 😎🥰💖

[@TheLocalProject]

We're glad to hear you enjoyed this project 🙌

[@barbaramelendez-rapp193]

Exceptional! Serene, elegant, it is timeless.

[@tonileenemanick727]

Everything about this - inside and out - is stunning.

[@maricruzramirezherrera9799]

One of the best houses of Local Project, this is another level.

[@ericmasella]

An incredibly beautiful and appropriate home that is completely in harmony with nature.

[@carolarellano6396]

Spectacular! At last a backyard that looks like a meadow with grass and wild flowers. Beautiful house!

[@Minimalism225]

Wow! This is such a gorgeous piece of architecture. The relationship between the landscape and the Shou Sugi siding creates a balance that isn't overwhelming. This home really works with the fields surrounding it while not taking away from the natural beauty. Well done to all of the people who worked on this project! Thank you Local Project for this delightful showcase!

[@josepha133]

This feels so … lush? I love it.

[@davonpointer2310]

Absolutely stunning, one of my favourites on this channel. I love the wild garden, really adds to the texture of the home. Well done the whole team 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@justaghorl]

that pool with the garden around it was all i needed to see to hit Like. damn

[@harryt154]

Brilliant architect! Amazing architecture! Thank you Matt for sharing your vision!

[@SvenKolb]

Holy Smokes... That's really beautiful! I can feel the breeze, that welcomes you, as you enter that house! You outdid yourself!

[@chrisanngianoli2206]

This project made me smile. It is top notch

[@justaguy6862]

That landscaping is awesome!

[@Benchpress76]

Beautiful house but for me it’s the garden and the pool………… Truly magical 💙💚🩵

[@leefrancis007]

Wow imagine how glorious this looks in Autumn 🍁🍁🍁

[@naomiscott108]

Brilliant, Beautiful just sooooo wow. Love the vibes of the natural space and the inside - outside living and the incredible landscape is just so good. Thank you for sharing.

[@sidlazzar1002]

Stunning 🤩 To be able to stay here during all the seasons would be amazing

[@oliverlondon5246]

Can I move in, please? Love this house and the area. So refreshingly different than all the other new builds out there. The landscaping fits so well

[@marklynn6907]

Beautiful home and fantastic narration and detailed description. It’s a miracle when the finances, design & architecture, and construction all come together to create….

[@julieuk5855]

I could live here year-round, without an issue.x beautiful.x

[@blackvulture7999]

This is some unreal landscape design right here

[@graemejones2061]

Very easy on the Eye , and the house is Magnificent

[@imianco8079]

stunning -- passion project -- so seamless & cool calm & collected -- the landscaping is star!

[@alexanderexarchos9210]

A very beautiful vision.....exquisitely executed! bravo

[@gospelofrye6881]

Word of the day: Incredible.

[@stevenkeller3047]

What a spectacular place in a beautiful setting. I could easily live there. Great job. I just love the Local Project. Your production values and quality are second to none on the Internet. Please keep-up the good work.

[@robthewaywardwoodworker9956]

What a treat. Excellent design and build.

[@robertrusso877]

Love the sawtooth roofline. I’m sure at certain times of day the house just disappears into the background. Well done Workshop/APD!

[@Michael-s5b2z]

This house is strangely beautiful.

[@J.e.f.f.r.e.y]

I really like a build this special to be timeless and I really feel they have achieved this.

[@amado7760]

absolutely beautiful

[@julieforbes7593]

A truly wonderful design.

[@tinacarmody761]

Stunning house! I can see myself living here very comfortably and happily.

[@lightuponlight6727]

Well now..... This is stunning.

[@vnkman4391]

Beautiful. I love the outside wild garden meeting the pool. I personally do not like the black that is throughout as it is far too harsh for me and cold. But its beautiful.

[@SleepyArcticBirds-ft4lb]

Absolutely stunning 🎉🎉🎉

[@darien33]

Una casa poco común, hermosa en su concepto y composición.

[@luckyleaprealestate]

love hous style ❤🎉

[@Sap3r3Aud3]

I'm not always a big fan of the USA-houses of The Local Project, I usually like the New Zealand houses better, but this was just stunning! Both the architecture and interior design of the house itself and how it sat in its natural environmnet is amazing. Not cutting the grass and letting wildflowers blossom is great for the local ecology. It makes me happy to see at least one American not ruining the garden with a lawn (yawn).

[@blace1200]

The house looks perfect😊

[@DanMolinaStudio]

This is a really nice one! Amazing work as always.

[@CourtneyBishopPOA]

It's so cool to hear how much passion and pride the principal has for this project, designing at this level. It gives genuine. Serious enquiry, how does one manage wild grass overtime? The length in these shots is great, but they will need to trim it back eventually, I'm sure? I love the soft look of it, but I've let grass grow out long like that before, and mowing it was quite the project 😅 but it does give off that free, unmanicured, pure, and joyous, flowy flair.

[@ashercoma2630]

the grass added millions to the house value

[@paulmcdonald1533]

Stunning ❤

[@EugeneBuvard]

It's a nice house but can we have more inside picture and less blabla?

[@davidalanmedia]

I’m not quite sure you understand this channel.

[@janicecondron5714]

This is truly beautiful!

[@blinktea8789]

Lovely!

[@Grateful4life4time]

Love every aspect of this property

[@TUNGNGUYEN-ph7hw]

Ingenious

[@andreelliott467]

Well planned. Well design. The kitchen is my favorite.

[@littlenest]

Love this house, the contrast of the black against the green of the grass and trees pops in such a beautiful way. On a side note, the bots really are fast on a channel that has nothing to do with "thirst" 😒, are they on the prowl for dudes with houses?

[@mrvk39]

It's a very sleek house. Pitches roofs kind of hint at countryside but interiors are very modern and sophisticated, more reminiscent of some posh suburb next to a big city.

[@IGuess...]

Super chic

[@RobertHenry-hs6mc]

Inspired!

[@canyonhaverfield2201]

Eugene- the film coverage was excellent both in dialog as well as sharing a broad amount of interior footage, right down to that cool closeup of the floor rug weave..beautiful shots of the acreage, driveway & landscaping. Even had a good look at the vintage Chevy Blazer. One of my lessons about my own perceptions is simply different strokes for different folks..also keeping in mind aspects we may not be privy to..such as what level of privacy the owners want protected. For instance leveling the lens upon book titles, inside fridge, or intimate this or that .

[@jdp486]

An architect that talks like a real human? Wow!

[@lysan1445]

I usually prefer swimming pools that look more organic and are not straight and square. Planting wildflowers around this one really softens the straight lines. It's a good compromise.

[@canieto1]

I love the straight and squire because it contrast with the super soft and wild plants growing around it.

[@justmefive20rs98]

I would be scared of snakes hiding in bushes as that’s where they like to hide especially if next to a pool or any kind of water.

[@CHKhouri]

Good point. I'll be very scared to even go close to this pool even though the whole house looks amazing​@@justmefive20rs98

[@ExultantTJ]

I actually prefer rectangular pools because it is easier to swim in them without worrying. Curved or organically shaped pools, not so much. But yes, I get what you were saying. It was all clean and very well maintained in the video at least. Where I live, I have seen my clients destroy these pools by keeling them unclean and letting leaves and what not fall or get collected in them. Sometimes there are insects too, ruining the pool. But we'll, pool is only for those who really care, and not for the sake of aesthetics. If one can maintain the pools, perfect for them.

[@ExultantTJ]

​@@justmefive20rs98that thought always occurs to me too. And I did some research, and apparently there are ways to avoid them from entering your garden. So, hopefully no snake attack in this pool. XD

[@VioletSafrietFlame1020]

Nice very cool absolutely beautiful looks like a dream very welcoming.

[@MrDragonorp]

Best grass i ever saw

[@seanvanderaa7978]

If "the grass is always greener" was an actual place

[@leastcoast3978]

The b-roll of the NYC housing blocks used to communicate the class of people that vacation in the Hamptons was comical

[@emeraldandolive]

stunning home!

[@timcarrington5977]

Love everything about this! 😍

[@kiethkamaruzaman]

Spectacular House

[@canieto1]

Finally an architect that deadlifts! haha. Amazing house!

[@CourtneyBishopPOA]

Right! Hahaha no shade to other architects but the discipline of strength training develops a different kind of character and you can feel that through the vision of this project. 🤌🏻 it sets this architect apart from others within his craft, in a good way, I think.

[@ChanelHunter-r8j]

I think it's a really nice open plan . That would be a nice investment.

[@aplusu]

Damn, i wont leave the house.

[@Elena-pu1fz]

Райское местечко ❤!

[@omarawadh8023]

Mashaallah ❤️

[@mindingminds]

Take a shot everytime they showed a shot of the pool...

[@sutats]

Really low key sanctuary.

[@Klaus-sy1hx]

I love it ❤

[@АлинаХаирова-ш2э]

Aside from all the beauty from the architecture and spectacular filming, I am also wondering about the music. Does anyone know where to find it so I can put it in my list for relaxation?

[@bakshi_varun]

I really like the idea of indoor-outdoor interspersed, the shou sugi ban wood finish and the grasslands outside but I really wish the living space had a little more character as opposed to a classic black-white finish. Still an impressive home!

[@DavidHeidrich-x1p]

First thought: Incredible house - Second thought: There are so many mice in the tall grass and soon in that house :D

[@iahorvath]

The meadow is stunning, kudos to the lanscaper. The house design is beautiful but the interior and exterior has too much black in my opinion and would have benefitted by some warm wood throughout. I would hesitate building anything on long island these days with the rise of the sea level a constant threat. Overall, great project.

[@antoniomartines8371]

Naturaleza,e responsáveis, por esse"hermoso,projeto¿"

[@QOOQ8808]

Looks really cool but you need and this will eventually happen if they are practical, some separation between the grass and the pool.

[@icytoe]

love the gingkos

[@clubsobri]

Pretty cool home. With my allergies, i'd die :) . But it is a really wonderful home.

[@Yayieglocal]

Love the car!

[@jakeboyd3055]

Nice truck.
