A Bit of Nature

I have been up dating this home for marketing. My friend Chris suggested that I needed tress between the dining area and the living room. I made up these topiary trees, built much like head pieces for the rose girls the tree trunks are built from hedge in my yard.

Pond View

This is Old Town Pond located where Old Town Road meets the dunes and the beach. The stucco wall on the right once extended past the prent dune line well out into what is now the ocean. Remains of the wall can be seen at extreme low tides.

In the English Manor

The Hampton's have been very successful in taking the English vernacular for a home and interpreting it in cedar shingles. I think this home is an excellent example.

Proud Cedar

This tree is growing in a field in the Hampton Bays cloverleaf on Sunrise Highway. I thought it was in very good form.

Details

This photo is a detail of the fireplace mantle at a friends home in Water Mill. The home was built in the late 1990's. I believe this is a very custom design with a care set of molding priorities to give a very solid look that anchors the living room and the heart of the house.
