House on Sag Harbour

David Piscuskas, Founding Principal of 1100 Architect, believes in creating purposeful, thoughtfully executed spaces that inspire. His design precision is showcased in House on Sag Harbor, a sophisticated family home on the tranquil banks of Sag Harbor Bay in the Hamptons, Long Island, New York. 

 “From the outset, our client was fascinated with a simple barn form,” David says. “We looked at hundreds - possibly thousands - of different barns for inspiration. In some parts of the world, a barn is a complete shelter; in others it’s just a roof. And in many regions, the roof and wall are very similar. In this project we decided to let them be exactly the same in two rectangular, perpendicular structures that offer expansive waterfront views. 

Abodo in the Hamptons

The Hamptons occupies a particular position in contemporary architecture. Neither overtly flamboyant nor nostalgically quaint, its most accomplished homes rely on restraint, proportion, and material integrity. Here, luxury is defined not by excess, but by clarity, buildings that sit quietly within their coastal landscapes, weather gracefully, and reward closer inspection through precision and detail.

Across Sag Harbour, Southampton, and Water Mill, Abodo Vulcan® timber has become a recurring material choice in this context. Selected for its durability, stability, and capacity to support highly resolved architectural envelopes, Abodo is increasingly specified in homes where performance must operate quietly, and material expression is expected to elevate, rather than dominate, the design.

When the Roof Disappears: The Discipline of Seamless Timber Architecture 

In architecture, simplicity is rarely simple. The most restrained buildings often demand the greatest precision, especially when materials are pushed beyond their typical roles. This is most evident in projects where timber runs uninterrupted from wall to roof, gutters are concealed, and the building reads as a single form rather than a collection of parts. 

Achieving this goes beyond appearance. It requires resolving junctions and drainage early, trusting the material to perform over time, and moving complexity into the unseen layers of the building.
