Six Square House is located in Bridgehampton, New York. The home is made of six 24’ x 24’ modules that all feature gabled geometry and a complex-looking roof design that’s shaped like an inverted V. The modules create a seamless and uninterrupted design between the roof and siding of the home. The simple exterior materials accentuate the roof geometry from all viewpoints. The roof composition translates into the home’s interior, creating six distinct areas.
The 3,500 square foot house contains two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen, living spaces, an outdoor porch, and a garage. For entertaining, the living spaces open directly onto the yard, featuring a central court, meadow, and pool house. The kitchen looks into the triangular court, with views of the open porch and surrounding landscape.
IKIGAI by reSAWN TIMBER co. features charred Accoya wood burnt in the Japanese style of shou sugi ban. IKIGAI can be used for interior or exterior wall cladding. Accoya wood is the result of decades of research and development that has brought together a long-established, extensively proven wood modification technique and leading-edge patented technology – acetylation to create a high-performance wood, ideal for outdoor use and challenging applications.
