William Beeton-designed and Michael Derrig-built this house, located in East Hampton Village. The goal was to create a refined, accented version of traditional village living. Layered hedges and trees create a private, tranquil space. The plant palette is deliberately simplified so as to complement the historicism of the house and its outbuilding. Herb and vegetable boxes provide seasonal cooking. And ample space for reflection, gathering, and play is preserved. Completed 2015
