Jenny Peysin Architecture recently completed a new home in the Hamptons with a concrete envelope and a new glazed living space. It has a concrete bar for a unique design language and opens up circulation and sleeping spaces. This is the first time that the studio is working with cast-in-place concrete and it has an all-in-one facade and structural material along with a glass pavilion.
Founder of the studio Jenny Peysin speaks about working with the materials and creating a dynamic design. She states that "The common area volume – or what we came to call 'the cube' as the design progressed – is a lofty open space that is enclosed on three sides with operable full-height glass. This allowed for maximum connectivity between the kitchen, living, and dining rooms, as well as a direct link to the outdoor recreation spaces."
