A ‘radical reimagination’ by Oza Sabbeth Architects has given a dramatic new look and layout to an existing timber structure in the Hamptons
Oza Sabbeth Architects’ co-founders often talk about ‘radical reimagination’. Business partners Nilay Oza and Peter Sabbeth have just completed one of their largest projects yet – Brick Kiln, a family retreat in the Hamptons. The house, conceived as a holiday home, feels warm yet clean-lined, structured, crisp and contemporary. Anyone would be hard-pressed to guess that this is, in fact, an adaptive reuse project based on the transformation of an existing home dating from 2004.
‘The existing house was big,’ says Sabbeth. ‘It was on the market for a while as people just didn’t know what to do with it. There were two of everything; the kitchens were joined through a pocket door.’ If you drive past Brick Kiln , it’s now hard to imagine what was there before. When the pair first shared their design with the clients, they were surprised, and thought that they were being shown an entirely new house.
