#INSTAHAMPTONS The photographer Ben Fink Shapiro mixes together the ocean, sand, and a sun worshipper to create an image of carefree sensuality in Body in Sand.
BEACH BUM BEN FIN SHAPIRO CAPTURES AN EAST ENDER AT HER MOST NATURAL.
“I shot this in East Hampton, on Atlantic Beach,” says Ben Fink Shapiro. “My goal was to illustrate the beauty and the form of a woman’s figure and show the summer aesthetic, the carefree beauty in it. A lot of my work is mixing

oceans, figures, and water, and creating an amalgamation of them so you know exactly what it is. “I was 15 when I started in photography, and I’m 32 now. [From the start], I decided I wanted to be a fashion and portrait photographer. I had a
darkroom in my basement in Cincinnati growing up—it had been a hobby of my father’s—and I always liked doing something artistic. I found my love of photography in the darkroom. “I’m back and forth between the Lower East
Side and East Hampton, where I have a house; I split my time pretty evenly. I love the Hamptons [in] all seasons. I love all the very quiet Wainscott Bay beaches. They feel like little secrets, and they’re now my favorite shooting spaces.
The light and sunsets are amazing there, and you get a real off-the-beatenpath feeling.” Ben Fink Shapiro is the artist-in-residence at Tenet (91 Main St., Southampton; tenetshop.com), where his work is regularly featured.

clockwise from top left: With Eric Fischl and April Gornik, who is championing the rebuilding of the Sag Harbor Cinema; I was so flattered to be photographed by Ben Fink Shapiro, whose work is featured in #InstaHamptons in this issue; with photographer (and this issue’s cover story) Gray Malin; with Hilary Swank and Mariska Hargitay at Hamptons magazine’s Memorial Day Kickoff Party.
I have long admired the beachy, fun aerial photography of Gray Malin. There’s a whimsy to it and an easiness that I admire. Whether it is a snap of a beach in St-Tropez or one in the Hamptons, you really get a sense of joy when you look at them. I had the great delight of cohosting the launch of Gray’s book Beaches at Serena + Lily Beach Market in Wainscott last summer. We had throngs of guests all sipping Veuve Clicquot and snapping up issues of Hamptons and, of course, the coffee-table book of the season by Gray. Our friendship really began there, and this winter we brainstormed how to do something bigger together. The “aha!” moment happened while Gray was telling me about some product launches he had in the works that would be for sale in the Hamptons, as well as some new local photo shoots. We batted around some ideas and looked at a ton of his work. We finally selected the image that is featured on the cover. This issue is also filled with other fun moments in photography. Artist Ben Fink Shapiro shares his beach snaps, we catch up with surfer-turned-photographer Read McKendree, and Montauk’s Michael Dweck launches a rosé that fea-
tures his surf photography on the label. The arts are such a part of the East End, but with the joys come the challenges. This winter we lost the Sag Harbor Cinema to a terrible fire, and in this issue, we take a look at the swift way the community has come together to rebuild it. I’m delighted to have been asked by artist and Sag Harbor resident April Gornik, who is spearheading the fundraising, to be a part of the advisory board. Amazing work has already been done: $2 million has been pledged by the likes of Billy Joel, Martin Scorsese, and Harvey Weinstein toward the Sag Harbor Partnership. The total cost is $8 million, and we need to reach 75 percent in donations and pledges by July 1 to protect the $1 million already pledged by another hero donor. Scorsese has said, “I hope people from all over the East End will join in this fight to save Sag Harbor’s center of culture.” It’s a call that I heard, and I hope you do, too. Please go to sagharborcinema.org for more information on how to get involved and give.

Good design transcends time and place. It lasts forever—in a way that can influence your life or even change it for the better! It makes a house a home. Philanthropy is essential for the financial health of the arts, hospitals and medical research organizations, our environment, children’s welfare, and animal protection and rescue. Our community counts on the generosity of its residents. One of the things I’m most proud of is working for and supporting our local institutions. Becoming grounded is one of those things that help to make all of life’s ups and downs much easier to navigate. When we can empty our mind, focus on our breath, and get grounded, we become calm and clear-headed. We are bringing our Self section to life with events and activities that offer a wealth of wellness

opportunities for you. Health and wellness, “becoming our best selves,” here on the East End is marked by the incredible spirituality and groundedness of the year-round community—our farmers, food providers, and wellness programmers. The art featured on our cover is by photographer extraordinaire Gray Malin. He captures aerial views of beach destinations in a way that’s unique and beautiful. Over the past year, I have learned about people’s universal love for Gray’s work, and we are so thrilled to have this beach scene, snapped in the Hamptons, as our cover art. We also celebrate more of our philanthropic partners as we join Group for the East End, The Retreat, East End Hospice, the Wellness Foundation, the Hetrick-Martin Institute, and the Nature Conservancy for their annual fundraisers. Enjoy the longer days and warmer nights. Enjoy the beauty that nature designs for all of us! See you in two weeks with our July 4th double issue, and I’ll see you in town!

BEN FINK SHAPIRO
SYLVIE BIGAR
Fashion, portrait, and art photographer Ben Fink Shapiro lives and works in NYC and East Hampton. His images have been published in Elle and American, British, and Korean Vogue, among other magazines, and his clients include Le Parker Meridien, the Parker Palm Springs, Maybelline New York, and Intermix. He just wrapped his first NYC solo exhibition, at A+E Studios in Tribeca. He has also shown at the Mark Humphrey Gallery in Southampton. He discusses his inspirations in “Beach Bum” (page 10).
Based in New York and Bridgehampton, food and travel writer Sylvie Bigar explores the world in search of unsung culinary delights and vibrant destinations. The coauthor of Daniel Boulud’s Daniel: My French Cuisine, she writes for The New York Times, The Washington Post, Saveur, Bon Appétit, Departures, Travel + Leisure, and other publications. For this issue, Bigar writes about the 1770 House (page 58).
You know it’s summer in the Hamptons when… “Levain Bakery and Round Swamp Farm open up.” Perfect summer day: “A bike ride and a paddle in the bay.” Craziest fitness fad you’ve tried: “Barry’s Bootcamp. I find it to be highly dangerous! Sorry, Barry!” Wish list: “I’d love to photograph Usher—in hopes that he could give me some tips on my dance moves.”
You know it’s summer when… “The local tomatoes burst with sweetness.” Favorite Hamptons restaurant: “Almond.” Favorite workout: “Pilates.” Your perfect summer day includes… “A stroll by the ocean with my two dogs.” Favorite destination: “Antibes on the French Riviera, because every year, my grandparents rented the Château de la Garoupe. I remember the olive trees, the scent of the mimosas in the winter, and the towering pine forest on the Mediterranean.”

You know it’s summer when… “We all perspire rosé during our workouts. More important, there is an energy shift and people seem happier, more light-hearted, and friendlier. I have always loved how everyone in the Hamptons says ‘Good morning’ and smiles. That small gesture is undervalued too much of the year.” Favorite Hamptons restaurant: “The Clam Bar in Amagansett. Being liberated from my embarrassingly highmaintenance beauty and fashion routines and feasting upon a double order of steamers with sand between my toes and salt air in my hair epitomizes my perfect beach lifestyle.”
What’s the most spectacular spa indulgence you’ve ever experienced? “My best friend and I do couples’ massages as often as we can and sip bubbly throughout. Does that count?” Summer musts: “Jack’s iced Americano. Joni’s smoothies. Cocktails on the boat. Dinner under the stars. Swimming before and after and in the middle. And so many outdoor showers.” Favorite Hamptons restaurant: “If you haven’t gone to a farm dinner at Amber Waves or Bhumi…”

CINEMA REBORN SAG HARBOR’S APRIL GOR REVIVES ONE OF THE TOWN’S LOST TREASURES.
PHOTOGRAPHY BY RICK WENNER
BY CARRIE DOYLE
Residents of the East End were devastated when a fire destroyed the Sag Harbor Cinema on a blisteringly cold and windy day in December. The landmarked theater was more than just a cinema—it was, as famed director Martin Scorsese called it, “a beacon of culture on Long Island.” “It was a disaster for everyone,” laments renowned landscape artist and North Haven resident April Gornik. “Everyone who loves Sag Harbor understands that the cinema was a manifestation of a quirky, inimitable
quality that differentiates us from other towns and villages out here. The fact that it was an old theater that showed new, cuttingedge cinema was a great encapsulation of what Sag Harbor is like: the old and the new all happening at once.” With the embers still burning, locals and heavy hitters immediately sprang into action. As early as 2009, there was a citizens’ committee to try to buy the property, and they quickly reassembled and formed the Sag Harbor Partnership, led by Nick Gazzolo; Gornik is VP.
“The cinema was a manifestation of a quirky, inimitable quality that differentiates Sag Harbor from other towns and villages out here,” says North Haven artist April Gornik, who has long been involved in efforts to preserve the beloved institution.

“WE WILL DO PROGRAMMING ALL DAY LONG. WEEKENDS WILL MAKE SAG HARBOR AN IMMENSELY ATTRACTIVE CULTURAL PLACE.” —april gornik
The new cinema, shown here in a rendering, will introduce anime festivals for kids and pair events with Bay Street Theater.
With the support of Martin Scorsese, producer Harvey Weinstein, local celebrity-inresidence Billy Joel, actress Dame Julie Andrews, as well as myriad other talented professionals, the group has just entered into a contract to purchase the theater at 90 Main Street. But Gazzolo remains cautiously optimistic. “We still have a long way to go, and we need to raise a lot of money. Everyone who is involved is working really hard. We all believe Sag Harbor is a better place with that building, with that sign, showing great films year round. There is a Sag Harbor spirit, and people who live here have pride in this village. We need to fight for it. It’s been a theater for a hundred years, and we want to continue that tradition and build on it.” The new cinema promises to be just as exciting. Gornik has big plans for the structure, which will hopefully be completed in two years. “We will do programming all day long with people of all ages,” she says. “There will be anime festivals for kids, and we will pair events with Bay Street Theater. Weekends will make Sag Harbor an immensely attractive cultural place.” One way to show support is to attend the Sag Harbor Partnership’s Party for the Cinema, a family event, which will take place in the Big Ten on Long Wharf in Sag Habor on July 16 from 5 to 8 pm. There will be an art auction, vendors from local restaurants, face painting for kids, and live music. Tickets to Party for the Cinema start at $50 per adult and $15 per child.

FADE TO PINK MONTAUK’S RESIDENT SHUTTERBUG MICHAEL DWEC CAPTURES SUMMER IN A BOTTLE WITH A NEW LINE OF ROSÉ. BY MATTHEW WEXLER
Since heading to Montauk in 1975 in pursuit of the Rolling Stones’ famous summer soirée at Andy Warhol’s house, photographer Michael Dweck has been enchanted by the East End. His latest venture is a new wine in partnership with Montauk Wine Company. Tell us about the new Montauk Summer Rosé. MD: I’ve always enjoyed wine and thought it would be interesting to create a rosé that reminded me of Montauk—a place that has youthfulness and sensuality. The limited production
is a Syrah blend with hand-selected grapes from the North Shore, and is similar to a dry French rosé in style. What was your inspiration for the label? MD: I wanted it to look like a faded Polaroid had been slapped on the bottle with handwritten text. The image is titled Getting Wet, and I took it at Ditch Plains Beach in 2002. We wanted to evoke the idea that summer is fleeting and continually reinvented. Beyond the wine release, do you have other projects in the works?
MD: I’m in postproduction for a feature film documentary I directed, titled Blunderbust, about the fate of a stock-car racetrack in Riverhead, Long Island. We’ll be entering it in film festivals this summer. When you’re not working, where are some of your favorite Montauk spots to unwind? MD: I’m a big fish eater, and Gosman’s Dock is the best there is.

SEEING RED ...AND ORANGE AND YELLOW! WITH A NEW HEIRLOOM SECTION AT BHUMI FARMS, FARMER FRAN AND CHEF MEG HUYLO GET DEEP INTO THEIR SHARED LOVE FOR A SUMMER STAPLE: TOMATOES. BY SCOTT FELDMAN PHOTOGRAPHY BY DOUG YOUNG
What brought you to the East End? Frank: The short answer is that I moved out to East Hampton in April 2013 to start my farm. Prior to that, I was living in Tribeca, living the typical city life. The last variable is that I became a firm believer of food as a healer or harmer to our overall health, and I mixed all that into a pot, and I morphed into Farmer Frank. What sets Bhumi apart from all the other farms out East? Meg: The quality of the produce— the flavor, the color, the texture, the nutrients! I’ve never tasted tomatoes quite like the ones that come out of these fields. What is your favorite thing you grow on the farm? Frank: When I first started it was radishes. I think watermelons bring the biggest smile to my face now, and heirloom tomatoes cause the most wonderment. What is the best seller at the stand? Frank: People seem to really enjoy our greens, because they have such a full deep taste to them that is a direct result of our focus on soil health. Also, tomato purists enjoy the fact we don’t spray our tomatoes with anything, including copper, which eliminates that sometimes bitter metallic acidic feeling you may get from other tomatoes. And our sugar snaps get sold before they are picked.

What’s your favorite summer ingredient to cook with and why? Meg: Fresh herbs are a great way to build flavor and enhance the main ingredient without altering it. What are you drinking this summer? Meg: Lambrusco rosato frizzante. It’s refreshing and crisp. What is your favorite activity outside the farm? Frank: Geez, this is such a hard question, because I don’t know that I have other activities outside the farm during the farm season—outside of farming, thinking about farming, and sleeping. Now that you are a “local,” do you have a favorite spot to eat? Meg: Dopo la Spiaggia, for sure.

What’s next for Bhumi? Frank: We took a big step this year and redesigned our farm into two components, both still certified organic. We have a specialty product farm, called Heirloom by Farmer Frank, that will grow open-pollinated and heirloom tomatoes, and market them as someone would wine grapes. Heirloom is on the south side, and the Bhumi Farm Stand is on the north side. Who is your biggest celebrity sighting at the stand thus far? Is there anyone you would love to cook for?

PICTURE THIS A SURFER-TURNEDPHOTOGRAPHER CATCHES THE HAMPTONS WAVE WITH COMMISSIONS, A COFFEE-TABLE BOOK, AND MORE. BY JESSICA SOFFER

Read McKendree has built a brand that embodies the Hamptons aesthetic: beachy, simple, clean. As a photographer, he travels the world— Ireland, France, Portugal, Bali, St. Barth’s—to take shots of beautiful houses, beautiful objects, and stunning landscapes, many of which feature water in motion. As a lifetime surfer, he knows all the good spots and that timing
is key. “While tide and swell direction can dictate when exactly a favorite point-break [wave] may start to work,” he says, “light and shadows can turn an otherwise lifeless interior into a remarkable space or an empty horizon line into a Rothko-esque moment.” And lately, since “the light seems to glow from everywhere,” he can’t stop snapping photos of the Hamptons.
McKendree recently contributed to surfer blog Indoek’s Surf Shacks (available at Harbor Books, 20 Main St., Sag Harbor, 631-808-3401; harbor bookssgh.com), which is certain to be one of the coffee-table books of the season because of the way it captures the laid-back lifestyle Hamptonites can’t get enough of. What’s more, McKendree has received commissions for large-scale works
in some chic Hamptons homes, and this summer several local stores will be offering his gorgeous prints. His photographs of the East End are more than merely beautiful. Perhaps because he calls the beach community of Westerly, Rhode Island, home, he can see our corner of the world in a new light.

HISTORY IN THE MAKING THE 1770 HOUSE IS CELEBRATING ITS 15TH ANNIVERSARY, WHILE CHEF MICHAEL ROZZI HAS BEEN COOKING ON MAIN STREET FOR 20 YEARS! BY SYLVIE BIGAR PHOTOGRAPHY BY DOUG YOUNG
Charm and tradition mingle elegantly in all aspects of the 1770 House, beginning with its front entrance.
58 HAMPTONS-MAGAZINE.COM
As 1770 House, the East Hampton inn and restaurant, celebrates 15 years in its current incarnation, charming mysteries still abound. “We don’t know why it’s called that,” says Richard Barons, senior curator of the East Hampton Historical Society. “The house was most probably built in the 1750s.” Owners Ben and Bonnie Krupinski, who grew up in the area, fell in love with its memories. “It all started as a real estate acquisition,” said Krupinski, a builder who specializes in luxury homes, “but I am a history buff.” So when he uncovered a mysterious bulge in a wall and found a bottle hiding a message dating from 1873 detailing that year’s renovation, he framed both. Most bottles, however, reside in the cellar, where restaurant manager and wine director Michael Cohen attends to a collection of about 2,500 specimens, representing more than 250 wines. “My heart lives in France and

“AS I SEEK NEW WINES, I ALWAYS THINK OF OUR REGULARS.” —michael cohen Spain,” he says. “But as I seek new wines, I always think of our regulars.” A certified sommelier, Cohen sees himself as a storyteller. “Tableside, I try to paint a picture.” More than 20 half-bottles (including a 2012 Joseph Phelps Insignia) can be found on the list, adorned since 2007 with a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence. Beyond the famous labels, there are many lesser-known micro-producers from around the world. “It’s all about trust,” says Cohen. “I ask, ‘Do you want to take a trip to Spain tonight?’” In the kitchen,
executive chef Michael Rozzi steers easily between pub fare for the intimate tavern downstairs and new American for the dining room and patio; between Korean BBQ Berkshire ribs, and seared Hudson Valley foie gras with pineapple, vanilla rum, and duck jus. Rozzi’s family has been anchored on the East End for three generations, and his steady relationships with farmers and local fishermen show on his seasonal menu. No one knows who the lady is in the portrait adorning the staircase that leads to the cozy
bedrooms, but it might as well be an ancestor of the true lady of the house, Bonnie Krupinski. “The Smithsonian wanted the 1600s cherrywood paneling in the sitting room,” she says, “but we decided to keep it.” In this era when casual dining reigns and white tablecloths are often shunned, 1770 House, with its picket fence and garden, feels like a private mansion curated by a dedicated crew. The good news is that an invitation is only a phone call away! 143 Main St., East Hampton, 631-324-1770; 1770house.com

BEACHY KEEN TOMAS MAIER’S NEWEST LINE WILL HAVE YOU CRAVING SUMMER ALL YEAR LONG.
PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF TOMAS MAIER
BY LISA FERRANDINO
Tomas Maier is all about perfect balance. At Bottega Veneta, where he’s been creative director since 2001, he delivers chic and subtle pieces season after season, while his eponymous label emphasizes Miami-tinged luxury basics (the logo is a palm tree). For the 20th anniversary of the latter, Maier has put together a beach capsule collection par excellence. “The design, cut, and quality are unlike anything shoppers have seen before,” he says. The ultimate sand-and-sun wardrobe for both men and women, the collection nods to the brand’s roots in swimwear and knits while maintaining the European-made quality that renders these wardrobe essentials luxe enough for trendsetters on their day off. For women, the options range from slinky dresses in iridescent neutrals to a jumper in melon, while black two-pieces and sun hats elevate the everyday beach look. And for the gents, expect a palette of neutrals with pops of metallic (like gold trunks that go with anything without being too flashy). Towels and totes round out the collection, for a posh homage to the surf-andsun lifestyle. Beachgoers, you’ve met your match. 74 Montauk Hwy., East Hampton, 631-604-6700; tomasmaier.com

BLUEMERCURY RISING THE LUXURY BEAUTY HUB OPENS ITS SECOND EAST END STORE IN LESS THAN A YEAR.
“Where is my New York client in the summertime?” asks Barry Beck, cofounder and COO of Bluemercury, the posh beauty chain that is opening its 200th location this year. “She goes out to the Hamptons.” After a decade of eyeing the East End, Beck and his wife, cofounder and CEO Marla Malcolm Beck, decided to take the
70 HAMPTONS-MAGAZINE.COM
plunge, setting up shop in East Hampton last July. Now the duo is expanding into Southampton. With Bluemercury shops popping up 10 blocks from one another in Manhattan, it’s only natural for the chain to offer the same accessibility in the East End. “In the Hamptons, people like to live in their own community,” says Beck, who
predicts the new location will strengthen the East Hampton store’s sales, which are up 250 percent over projections. Like its sister store, the Southampton branch of Bluemercury offers La Mer, Chantecaille, and skincare line M-61, plus a broad array of sun and haircare products. While both will open spas, the new store will have some
unique offerings, including a program that focuses on natural brands, such as Indie Lee, One Love Organics, and Soleil Tojours. And though each community is distinct, says Beck, “the Hamptons client is always on trend. She’s in the know.” 46 Main St., Southampton, 631-283-0255; bluemercury.com

That’s the mantra Hampton Design has gracefully lived by since its conception by Peg Fruin in 1999 as a kitchen and bath design company for the East End. Now, almost 20 years and a few hundred projects later, the designs have naturally advanced to other parts of the home — dining room, living room, bedrooms, outdoor spaces — ultimately transforming into a full-service interior architecture and design firm. Most important to the development of these projects is the network of specialists that Hampton Design has come to call family: builders, contractors, architects, collaborative interior designers, landscape designers and artisans. Within this dynamic network lies the ability to make any client’s vision come to life, so that they can live beautifully.

TOUCH of GRAY Whether captured from a helicopter high above Ipanema Beach, the bow of a ship in the middle of the Mediterranean, or the rafters of a Hollywood studio, Gray Malin’s fine-art photography makes every day a getaway. by ALLISON BERG
E
xiting a congested West Hollywood street and ascending a meticulously photo-lined staircase into a sun-drenched white-brick loft, one gets the sensation of escaping to another realm, a place of celebration and fantasy. This is the world of Gray Malin. As he plays gracious guide on a tour of his vast body of work, it’s a wonder this strikingly handsome human spends so much of his time behind the camera rather than in front of it. To a visitor who has only just met him, Malin nevertheless feels like an old friend. Immediately he begins casually describing the hows and the whys of colorful compositions captured in far-flung locales like Forte dei Marmi, Bhutan, St. Barths, and the Hamptons, featuring geometric arrays of umbrellas or monkeys dressed as bellmen or words spelled out in shimmering three-foot balloons floating over deserted landscapes. Surrounded by product-filled shelves and boxes, mementos of past collaborations, piles of balloons for an upcoming shoot in Bolivia, and an assiduous staff of 12 at long, white, symmetrically aligned lacquered tables, this rising star projects an uncanny sense of calm. As we pause at a perfectly placed vase of fresh hydrangeas, Malin chuckles. “My life would make some sort of crazy reality show, I’m not gonna lie to you.” As his whimsical photos suggest, Malin tries not to take himself too seriously. Raised in Dallas, he was deemed a Hollywood success story at age 21 by his family and friends when he landed the job of second assistant to the president of Paramount Pictures. “But I felt like a failure,” he admits. While learning how award-winning
quite different, as is his goal: Aarons was trying to perfect people, while Malin is trying to perfect a sense of place. For his À la Plage series, shot from a doorless helicopter, he traveled to seven continents to document beaches, including those of Cape Town, Dubai, St-Tropez, Hawaii, and the Hamptons. Each beach project takes about three months from concept to final shoot, and on these daring flights designed to seize spectacular bird’s-eye images, Malin has learned that anything can happen. Indeed, he’s counting on it, always hoping to catch a dramatic moment with a lone swimmer, a wave breaking at a beautiful angle, or a striking umbrella. And his work is filled with fascinating insights—like how people of different countries arrange themselves on the beach. In Rio, for example, beachgoers are comfortable lounging nearly on top of each other, while Americans prefer more space. The umbrella patterns are also distinctive, with most Italian beach clubs placing umbrellas in geometric patterns, while in the US they’re more haphazard. Malin can even tell the difference between public beaches and private beach clubs based on the umbrella colors and patterns, as well as the presence of loungers (they’re noticeably lacking in the US). Malin is also acclaimed for his unexpected interventions in exotic locales. One of his best-known photos, for instance, is Llamas Black and White Balloons, featuring two balloon-sheathed llamas with red tassels on their ears standing amidst the otherworldly terrain of Bolivia’s salt flats. Like the other fanciful photos in his Far Far Away series, Malin shot it under the mentorship of renowned Bolivian photographer Gastón Ugalde. The happily
“Art can be humorous and joyful with the right eye and right approach.”—gray malin films are made from beginning to end was an amazing experience, he says, it was the wrong job for him. Everyone else at the studio was remarkably passionate about filmmaking, but he wasn’t. Although Malin’s photography earned him a spot in the Dallas Museum of Art’s Young Masters exhibition when he was in high school, he had never thought of photography as a viable career. But the young Emerson College graduate decided it was time to take a risk. He enrolled in a professional development class for photographers, where he interacted with other practitioners and learned how to think about the medium more broadly, that “art can be humorous and joyful with the right eye and right approach,” he says. It was this revelation that gave Malin the courage to start doing things differently. A professional career that began with a self-constructed sales booth at a Los Angeles swap meet in 2009 is now a flourishing practice that has produced 23 photo series, a New York Times bestselling book, and numerous public installations, as well as chic products and a growing lifestyle brand. Whether it’s an Hermèsclad camel at Le Parker Méridien Palm Springs, a herd of rainbow-hued sheep in an Australian field, or an arrangement of Eames furniture floating on a platform in the water off Bora Bora, Malin continues to push the boundaries of fine-art photography. He may be most celebrated, however, for his aerial photographs of resort destinations. While his beach and pool images have been compared to those of the renowned Slim Aarons for their atmosphere of colorful fantasy, Malin’s compositions are

captivating photo required no postproduction editing other than removing the animals’ ropes. For an earlier series, Prada Marfa, Malin revisited one of his favorite family vacation destinations: Marfa, Texas. As a fan of Elmgreen & Dragset’s 2005 installation in which they placed a small Prada store on a lonely desert road, he was excited to insert figures and props before this exquisite backdrop. One notable photo from the series is Cowboy and Mule, a tongue-in-cheek version of “New York chic meets cowboy cool.” “People ask me, what does it mean to have the eye for photography?” he says. “It means that you can immediately see the composition.” Looking to fine-art photographers like André Kertész for inspiration, Malin always starts with lines, shapes, and forms. His eyes light up when talking about Kertész and how he mastered the beauty of linear composition. “Google The Fork,” he exclaims, referring to his favorite Kertész still life. Next, Malin looks at color, then finally at the overall scene. Among Malin’s many global photographic locations, one stands out for him. “It is an unbelievable feeling to come to the Hamptons and create artwork that becomes beloved by the community,” he says. With the goal of creating an idealized allAmerican Atlantic coast scene, he visited Southampton, where his father’s closest friend took him under his wing. Initially, Malin was most drawn to the wide beaches. Then he fell in love with the dark green water. But the clincher was, as always, the composition—a specific pattern of houses, then greenery, then sand, then water that he says exists only in the Hamptons and Hawaii. East

the same time, he debuted his photo-printed Orlebar Brown swim trunks. Since then he has collaborated on a capsule shoe collection with Sperry, an art project with Le Méridien, and, most recently, a limited-edition line of beach umbrellas with Santa Barbara Umbrella, among other ventures. In addition to photographic prints, fans visiting his website can now acquire photo-adorned Gray Malin cocktail kits, iPhone cases, luggage tags, and acrylic trays, as well as signed copies of his best-selling book Beaches. His products are also available at many Neiman Marcus stores, Le Parker Méridien Palm Springs, Shopbop, and One Kings Lane. Malin loves the feeling of walking into a store and seeing the brand he created on display. “My work hangs in so many private homes,” he says, “but I never get to see that.” Moreover, by pushing the boundaries of his photography, he can ensure that everyone can own a piece of his work, even if they can’t afford an original photo. “The art world used to be so exclusive,” he says. “Now you can sit in a living room and feel a part of it with my stuff.” What’s next for Malin? In Bolivia, he recently completed a follow-up to his Far Far Away series, which will be shown later this year. This summer he will return to the South of France and the Italian coast, with a special stop at Lake Como, to create more images for his À la Plage beach series. This October, keep your eyes peeled for Malin’s next coffeetable book, Escapes. This highly anticipated sequel to Beaches features parks (urban and rural), snow, islands, pools, and surf—an exploration of perfect escapes all around the world. “People love books that make them feel great,” he says. With the shimmering water of a swimming pool on its cover and silver-leaf edges, the book itself becomes a decorative object: It looks like a pool installed in the middle of the table. Malin’s work is quickly becoming part of the fabric of the Hamptons, and he couldn’t be happier. “It’s nice to be honored for just doing something that makes people feel good and in turn become a part of their lives.” @graymalin; graymalin.com
Tray Bien! Gray Malin’s photographs are no longer just for hanging on walls. Thayer’s Hardware and Patio now carries trays featuring his well-known aerial beach images, one with multicolored umbrellas poking from the sand. The trays come in two sizes—a 22.5-by-14.5inch version with handles ($349) and a 17-by-15-inch one without ($295)— making it easy to have a glass of rosé on the beach without getting sand in your suit. 2434 Montauk Hwy., Bridgehampton, 631-537-0077; thayershardware.com

End beachgoers are also partial to playful umbrellas, fun accessories, and lots of stripes—they put their heart and soul into what they carry to the beach. “The images are like a live magazine, and people carry it within their spirit,” he explains. “From above, it all looks stunning together.” Malin admits that while he could of course have any of his photos hanging in his bedroom, the one he chose is a Hamptons piece: a grouping of beautiful beachgoers, surfboards, quintessential wooden fencing, rocks, and people on the water. “I haven’t gotten such a rich shot anywhere else, and I get to see it every day.” The surfers have been the greatest surprise for him; he had no idea the East End had such surf culture. For the past four years, Malin has faithfully visited the Hamptons annually and always enjoys a sense of inclusion. His local fans now recognize him and compliment his work as he walks down the street: “It makes me feel a part of the community.” He loves that on the East End, depending on your mood, you can walk your dog on a quiet beach or drink a piña colada at a fabulous beach club with yellow striped umbrellas. Last September, he ventured to the Hamptons in the fall for the first time, resulting in aerial photos in which horseback riders replace the sunbathers. Malin has spent most of his time at Fowler Beach, but last summer he discovered energetic places like Gurney’s and The Surf Lodge. He was thrilled when he received a commission from The Surf Lodge for a permanent installation. His playful work is perfect for the venue’s recent Fiona Byrne refresh: With its minimalist rooms—stark white with hints of color—the art is extremely important. When it comes to interior design, he recommends choosing a piece of art that moves you, then fashioning the interior around it. As playful as he often appears, Malin’s approach to his work is meticulously systematic. Every detail of his workspace interiors, his photographic series, the rollout of his lifestyle website and products involves years of planning. “I feel really lucky that I got business instinct from my dad,” he says. “I’m an artist, but at the end of the day I know what I’m trying to say, and it works.” His goal from the start of his career has been to travel to the ends of the earth to offer people escapes, as well as feelings of joy and belonging. This is no simple task, he admits. Despite appearances, the life of a globe-trotting photographer can be anything but glamorous. He finds himself consumed with questioning whether he has the right lighting or the right timing or how he might make the shot even better. “Your mind sort of races a bit,” he says. “It’s work, but I can’t complain.” The projects can also be hair-raising. Antarctica proved dangerous for one of his lighthearted balloon-word shoots, when a gust of wind sent an N flying over a distant bluff, leaving the team in a snowy wilderness with no N for antarctica. An assistant managed to recover it while everyone else held down the remaining letters. (Since then, Malin has brought ample amounts of tape to his balloon shoots.) The incident reminded him that he can’t do this alone, and he heaps praise upon his team: “I help them grow, and they help me grow. We all push each other.” A different kind of adventure began in 2011 with the launch of Maison Gray, Malin’s first direct-to-consumer ecommerce site. After he began taking aerial photos, he decided to eliminate the alias, and GrayMalin.com was born in 2014. Around

MODERN TIMES An all-star team of tastemakers in real estate, home décor, and design weighs in on the trends that are coming, going, and here to stay. moderated by MICHAEL BRAVERMAN
92 HAMPTONS-MAGAZINE.COM
PHOTOGRAPHY BY DOUG YOUNG. OPPOSITE PAGE: PHOTOGRAPHY BY RAIMUND KOCH
Let’s begin with an in-your-face question: What’s hot? Elsa Soyars: One thing I see as a trend is a little bit of a California style. Out in our Hamptons, people are attracted to more of a relaxed, natural palette. Frederico Azevedo: In landscaping, I see a complement to what you just said, [going] past midcentury [style]. Like, midcentury was very in until now for interiors. Then, past midcentury, we see the 1960s and ’70s, and even the ’80s are coming back now. Free-form pools are totally back. Matthew Breitenbach: I think the whole buyer pool of the Hamptons is changing. They seem to really love the modern aesthetic, an open aesthetic. Traditional homes with modern interiors were hot for some years. But I feel the traditional has become oversaturated, and the new generation of buyers is into more of the modern design—straight modern as well, even at lower price points. Scott Smith: We’re seeing more color being introduced to the kitchen. And 10 years ago, the dining room was sort of obsolete. Now dining rooms are coming back. In addition, we’re doing a lot more libraries. People want to have an escape from the main area of the house to a nice, cozy library with a fireplace, where they can watch TV or read a book. Michael Schultz: I think it ties back to how the Hamptons have become a year-round community again, which is amazing. I mean, look at how busy it’s been. Restaurants open—there’s a pulse out here. The younger families are here every weekend. Theresa Caccavale: We’re getting a lot more into the closets and keeping the rooms a lot simpler. You know, getting the dressers built into the closets, more minimal furniture. We do a lot of lacquer finishes and supermatte, too. Flat, clean, a little pop of color. Are you seeing more patterned floors and terra-cottas or…? ES: It depends on the client’s vibe. I’m Portuguese, so I grew up with tile all around me, from God knows how many centuries ago. I see more painted tiles that are matte finish. They don’t degrade, and you can do an amazing backsplash or mud area, or a cool bathroom. In floors, I definitely see more limed finishes, like French oaks. Even natural. If you have beautiful oak, why cover that? Matt, what kinds of changes have you
seen since you last joined us here? Matthew McGrath: Well, we are more traditional, and our clients start out very traditional, but then we see they’re constantly pulling toward more modern things for the interiors. Even if they’re not ready to go ultramodern on the exterior, suddenly the whole inside of the house has a very modern feel. What specifically do you add to bring that to life? MM: A lot of clean lines. Square, not-soornate profiles, trims, and such. With the kitchens, two-tone. In one kitchen, you can even have three different finishes. It used to be that all rooms would almost match. Even vanities would all have a trend throughout the house. We’re now seeing every room being very different. Do you see vintage pieces in the kitchen? MM: A little bit. More repurposing of items in bathrooms, turning them into vanities or things like that. James Merrell: I think history is available to us. You can kind of do anything if you do it well and you do it in an interesting way. It could be colors, or it could be the lack of color. That’s a very personal thing. The people buying modern houses are probably, when they start to personalize it, going to do things the architects wouldn’t have liked. Not in terms of additions but in decorating and finishing. MB: I agree with what you’re saying. As a broker, I ask people, “What are you looking for? Is it modern? Is it traditional?” Sometimes they don’t even understand what we consider traditional or modern. We know exactly what we mean, but, to Matt’s point, “modern” to a lot of people is a traditional house with a modern interior. FA: I think trends fade, but style remains. Style has a starter value. It’s what people look for in all places they go. They are looking for a style to dignify themselves. JM: Increasingly, people are saying, “Well, I want something modern, but I don’t want it to look dated in 10 years.” FA: Style doesn’t date, but I think the ideas of clients have to be translated. Sometimes a client asks me for an Englishstyle garden. What they are really talking about is just a natural garden that has nothing to do with the English style. I have to listen to what they want, even though they label it in the way they thought. JM: A lot of young people who grew up with family houses out here want

“Trends fade but style remains. Style has a starter value. It’s what people look for in all places they go.” —frederico azevedo
something different. A lot of traditional houses are being knocked down for modern ones. We have a history of architectural experimentation here, great successes and great failures to learn from. We’re tearing down the failures now. FA: When I started working in the Hamptons in 1993, my oldest clients, like between their 50s and 70s, appreciated modern architecture. The young clients, like from late 20s to 40s, even if they bought a modern house, would say, “How can we make it a little bit more traditional?” But now, appreciation for the modern has come to the younger generation, too. It sounds like it skipped a generation. TC: If you study the different generations, from selling or designing for millennials compared with baby boomers, there are patterns. Baby boomers are the original generation with the modern. Are these generic trends or particular to the Hamptons? FA: It’s generic, yeah. Recycled materials are very in, too. Like recycled wood for flooring and walls—that’s something relatively new, like the past 10 years. How has the eco-consciousness trend affected your design and building? TC: My customer asks. It’s one of the first things we talk about. We have sustainable materials, and people are more conscious of it. Whereas in the past, it was “Just make it look pretty. I don’t care what it is.” Now it’s less is more, and simplicity. Is there a premium price for sustainable materials? TC: There really isn’t. We’ve incorporated them as our norm. SS: For cabinetry, it’s less [costly]. We use a product called Green-Core, which is formaldehyde-free. It’s all basically reclaimed, recycled wood. They make plywood out of it. We do a lot of veneers, too. Floors used to be solid three-quarter oak. MM: Floors now have a third of the actual wood on the surface. SS: That’s right. MM: It’s just from the tongue up. There’s material savings, even though the engineering and making the floorboard are expensive. They’re using a lot
94 HAMPTONS-MAGAZINE.COM
more recycled wood. They’re getting more usage out of it. SS: You can put in particleboard, which everyone hates to hear, but flooring sometimes comes in particleboard, which is a formaldehyde-free product. Then they put veneer on top. I’m seeing not just wood finishes but, in building, a lot more sprayfoam insulation, certainly on higher-end houses. It’s much more about energy efficiency, because it gets in all the cracks and crevices. MB: Whenever I show people relatively large houses, there’s always that time when you get into the basement and show them the boiler. These days, boilers are like the size of a suitcase. “This is heating the whole house?” MS: They’re like 98 percent efficient. It’s amazing. MB: A lot of it’s code-driven, so there’s sometimes resistance to codes changing. I think this is a community that’s leading the country in upping the energy codes. FA: The landscaping, too. More people are asking for native plants. They require less fertilizer and less water, and they adapt well to the different kinds of weather we have. We’re developing a lot of landscaping—most 100 percent native plants. TC: “Colorful native plants, colorful native plants.” ES: Hopefully, deer-resistant. FA: Exactly. They are more adapted to the environment, too. To all the predators. Well, now that you’ve brought us up to date on what’s current, I want everyone to jump in and say what’s next. Are these trends going to continue or change? MB: It seems like the Hamptons has become a global brand, and we do have timeless Hamptons styles, like these farmhouses and things of that nature. You’re seeing the modernization of them a little bit, maybe a modern farmhouse, things moving in that direction. ES: I think designing with awareness and consciousness. We are responsible

to educate our clients on things that are good for them. When we’re purchasing or dealing with our vendors and learning ourselves, it’s a responsibility to share that information with our clients. It’s something called integrity, and I want to say I carry that with me. FA: Yeah. The next—whatever we do, whatever style we go to, whatever trend it is—needs to be conscious and responsible to preserve the world that we have. ES: Yes. FA: To really have responsibility, and know the environment has changed and we are responsible for the world that we leave. As designers, we have to practice thinking about that all the time. JM: Our connection with the outdoors and nature—and the world, as you say—I think is encouraging the outdoors to come within our houses. Have more open areas for the wind to blow through. ES: So many people want rooms you can completely open, you know? It’s such an enhancement of Hamptons living, just a beautiful connection with nature. JM: Exactly. People are still heavily influenced in New
York City by that loftlike space. That translates into much larger rooms in newer houses. I see large kitchens and then a large living room and almost like pocket doors that can be opened, so the space can feel continuous. ES: Yes. FA: This approach of the indoor and outdoor, like when you open a front door of the house and you can see outside, this is a very Hamptons style. Most of the houses don’t have rigid structures or formal vegetation. They have very organized spaces. It’s kind of like a tailored style, not a rigid style. MS: I think the root that holds architecture to a certain degree is always going to be the landscape, the pure beauty of farms. We may venture out a little bit, but the Hamptons landscape will always keep the design pretty centered. FA: Remember, tree houses are the new trend. Oh, really? JM: I had a customer who wanted one that looked like his house, like a little modern tree house. ES: This could be a great meditation space. I like it!

7geothermal good reasons to consider
Efficient
Economical
Geothermal heat pumps are three to four times more efficient than ordinary forced air systems, with about 70% of the energy used by a geothermal system coming from the ground.
Operating costs are significantly lower. When choosing geothermal heat pumps to heat and cool your home, you can expect to reduce your cost by 25% to 60% or more.
Reliable
Renewable
Geothermal units can operate for years with little maintenance. Since geothermal units are located indoors, they are protected from extreme weather conditions and can last over 20 years.
Geothermal energy is renewable – once water is used, it can be pumped back into the ground. It’s cleaner than fossil fuels too, generating less greenhouse gas emissions.
Comfortable
Flexible
Geothermal heat pumps deliver even temperatures throughout the year, with no extreme hot or cold spots. This makes geothermal an ideal choice for radiant floor heating.
Geothermal systems can provide heating, cooling and supplemental water heating from a single unit. And geothermal units can be integrated with existing systems or installed in new home construction.

CLASSIC BY DESIGN IN REFRESHING HIS HOME ON GARDINERS BAY, DESIGNER MARSHALL WATSON BROUGHT A FEELING OF EASY ELEGANCE TO CLASSICALLY INSPIRED ROOMS.
PHOTOGRAPHY BY MARY ELLEN BARTLEY
BY JEAN NAYAR
Had it not been for the sale of the East Hampton home he once shared with his husband, Paul Sparks, interior designer Marshall Watson probably wouldn’t now be living in the house by the sea he’d dreamed of as a child. “I’m a kid from Kansas City, where it’s often said, ‘We’re 23 hours from the ocean,’” says Watson. “So I’d always hoped to live in a waterfront property one day.”
Marshall Watson combined Federal, Greek Revival, and shingle-style elements when designing his home in East Hampton.

would perfectly suit their needs. Once the plans were finished, the pair mustered the financing to build it from the ground up the following year. They lived very happily in the 2,500-square-foot, two-story home for about 17 years, until an accident led to a recent redo of its interiors. “It all started with a leak,” says Watson. Water damage over the French doors leading to the balcony of the upperlevel master bedroom prompted him to replace the opening with an arched variation he’d wanted from the start. With that repair project behind him, Watson turned his attention to updating the bedroom’s interior and, given his

While the couple’s former Hamptons home—as well as their apartment in Manhattan—was significantly closer to the sea than his childhood home, neither had water views. So to lift Watson from his malaise after the sale of their house in 1999, Sparks went sleuthing around until he found an overgrown plot of land on Gardiners Bay in East Hampton. They subsequently purchased the lot with “every ounce of money we had,” recalls Watson, and in the months that followed, the diligent designer, acting as his own architect for lack of funds to hire one, drew and redrew plans for a classically inspired shingled home that

perfectionist inclinations, one thing led to another until he had refreshed the entire house. He finished the makeover last year, just in time to include it in The Art of Elegance, a book about his work, coauthored with Marc Kristal and published in March by Rizzoli. Although many of the finishes and fabrics in the rooms are new, most of the furnishings (some of them family heirlooms) remained the same. “I don’t believe in throwing anything away,” says
Watson, whose cherished possessions include an antique table from his great-grandmother, a set of dining chairs from his mother, and the Venetian pendant lanterns in the master bedroom. Some of these pieces played a role in the development of his original design scheme, as Watson—a stickler for proper scale and proportion—meticulously shaped spaces around the existing furnishings to respond to the way he and Sparks live. Laid out in a classic
Greek Revival foursquare plan—with the living room as the central enfilade on the main floor, linking the library, dining room, guest room, and kitchen in the corners—the traditionally furnished rooms are at once formal and relaxed. “I had three gods to serve in the living room: the fireplace, the ocean view, and the TV, which I had to figure out where to put in order to hide it,” says Watson. Three distinct groupings of furniture allowed him to finesse

this trio of focal points. And with fresh glazed wall finishes, updated wallpapers, and new curtains and upholstery throughout the home, the uplifting palette of sunny yellows, grays, and blues gracefully mediates the divide between indoors and out. “I love grabbing color from the outdoors and pulling it in,” Watson adds. At the same time, details like the delft tiles in the fireplace surround, crisp curtain trims, and high-gloss moldings lend
the entire home the easy elegance that has become Watson’s hallmark. “A home needn’t be fussy or pristine or untouchable to be elegant,” says the designer. “To me, it’s about comfort, light, proportions, harmony, and balance. I think it’s important to create spaces that strive for more civility.” In this day and age, many would no doubt agree.

ZONE DEFENSE TEARING DOWN A HOUSE? REVAMPING A HISTORIC PROPERTY? ADAM MILLER AND BRIAN DESESA HAVE MADE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES SHARING—AND EASING—YOUR PAIN. BY EMILY WEITZ From beachfront revamps to full teardowns, Adam Miller and Brian DeSesa are expert guides through the complex legal and bureaucratic issues surrounding Hamptons real estate.
108 HAMPTONS-MAGAZINE.COM
When clients buy a property for tens of millions of dollars, they usually expect the freedom to make lots of changes. Is that the case in the Hamptons? Adam Miller: The East End is a unique market. Just because someone spends $12 million doesn’t mean they can do whatever they want. Municipalities can govern everything from
pool location to paint color. What are some typical limitations? Brian DeSesa: Altering a historic home is highly regulated, but so are guest cottages, art studios, basements, height limitations, and clearing restrictions. Tell us about a client who needed your legal know-how. BD: After one closing on
an expensive Sag Harbor waterfront property, the municipality changed the zoning laws. We contested the new regulations so our clients could build the home they’d spent a year and a half designing. Brian, you were a DA and criminal attorney— and the vice chair of the Southampton zoning board—and, Adam, you have local and
Manhattan expertise. How does that combination work? AM: It’s truly yin-yang. I still have an NYC energy level and drive that keep me up at night. Brian’s got a laid-back vibe and a way of approaching business and life that is actually balancing. 2462 Main St., Ste. 7, Bridgehampton, 631-537-1155; adammillergroup.com

COASTAL CLASSICS WHEN RAVET FURNITURE DECIDED TO DO A BEACH-INSPIRED COLLECTION, THEY DIDN’T HAVE TO LOOK ANY FURTHER THAN THE EAST END-APPROVED DUO OF JENNIFER MABLEY AND AUSTIN HANDLER.
Just beachy: The Mabley Handler for Kravet collection features cerused oak finishes in hues of driftwood set off by brushed-metal accents. Here, the Howell Canopy king bed, Hayground onedrawer side tables, Privet Lane double bench, and Dappled Light rug in Tusk.

Is this collaboration your first with Kravet? Jennifer Mabley: Yes. We have been longtime Kravet fabric and furniture customers, and we had been hoping to design a furniture collection for them for years. Two years ago, a fortuitous conversation with our sales rep led to a meeting with Kravet to discuss our ideas
for what a Mabley Handler furniture line might look like. Four months later, we presented sketches for our collection, and by the time we drove home from the pitch, we received the green light. What do you think drew Kravet to your work? Austin Handler: Mabley Handler is known for a fresh Hamptons aesthetic, a
vibrant beach-chic style that’s in high demand. When Kravet was looking to develop a coastal furniture collection, it made sense for them to work with coastal design experts. What was the idea behind the collection? AH: The biggest inspiration for us was to bring together a mix of wood, metal, and upholstery in a
way that captures the stylish aesthetic of Hamptons design. We developed a collection of seven cerused, quartersawn oak finishes in tones that are reminiscent of driftwood, and added brushed-brass and satin-silver metal accent details. The range of wood, metal, and upholstery combinations creates

A MUCH-LOVED BEACH GETAWAY GETS A STORMPROOF MAKEOVER. BY EMILY WEITZ
When Hurricane Sandy struck during renovations for a beach house in Water Mill, its owners decided they wanted a better-built house that could weather any storm. While the fabulous surfer’s retreat that now stands at 1254 and 1265 Flying Point Road has its predecessor’s charm, it also has a whole lot more “wow” factor. “The owners bought the original house because of how low-key it was,” says Viola Rouhani, a Stelle Lomont Rouhani partner and lead architect on the Water Mill project. “They wanted to maintain the feel of that sweet little beach shack.” But there’s nothing shack-y about this open, 2,500-square-foot oceanfront home, whose original

footprint was set back even farther from the ocean to make it FEMA-compliant. With more than 100 feet of beachfront and another 55 feet of across-the-street bayfront, the architectural choices make the most of the 360-degree views, with floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides, 1,650 square feet of decking, and a hot tub on the roof. “The guiding principle was a feeling of informality and openness,” says Rouhani. “The owners surf, and they have many close friends in the area. They wanted it to be casual and welcoming.” The design achieves this feel by keeping transparent the lower level, which has the kitchen and dining room. “As you walk up to the house, there are big

Whether homeowners are looking to reduce their carbon footprint or find eco-friendly bedding (like the bamboo sheets above), Amy Hill Designs is ready for the challenge. “When I am working with clients who care about being more environmentally and sustainably conscious, I have a number of resources and lines,” says Hill. The most important part of working with sustainable materials, she says, is not to sacrifice comfort or chic design in the process. “The companies I work with are not only environmentally friendly but also give much thought to making a product that is truly luxurious.” 631-338-2121; amyhilldesign.com
sliding-glass doors, so you can walk right into the room,” says Rouhani. “The room opens up and becomes part of the outside.” This is also true of the second level, where the bedrooms are. From the master, a huge deck acts as an extra room. “We are really interested in sustainable design,” says Rouhani. “So there’s a big overhang that you can sit under and be protected from the sun,” and the overhang effectively cuts out the house’s solar gain. Because of the high exposure to the elements, special attention was paid to materials. “The whole thing is clad in western red cedar, which will weather well,” she explains. “It will ‘silver out’ and become reminiscent of
the original beach structures in the area.” The doors are aluminum-frame and impact-resistant, meant to withstand hurricanes—and they never need to be painted. “We tried to keep the exterior as bulletproof as possible.” For the project’s second phase, for which partial permits are already in place, a pool and a pool house will be added, engaging the bay views. “This is meant to be playful and fun,” concludes Rouhani. “The sunset deck, outdoor fireplace, hot tub, surfboard storage—it’s a real beach-house getaway.” 1254 and 1265 Flying Point Road in Water Mill is listed for $13 million with Harald Grant at Sotheby’s, 50 Nugent St., Southampton, 631-227-4913; sothebyshomes.com

3 WAYS TO WELLNESS ESORT & SEAWATER SPA HAS GURNEY’S MONTAU UPPED THE ANTE WITH CAN’T-BE-FOUND-ELSEWHERE ACTIVITIES TO MAKE THE ADDITIONAL DRIVE WORTH IT. BY CRYSTAL MARTIN
1. Sea spa. Gurney’s boasts the only indoor seawater pool in North America. Perfect for a calming soak or healing swim, it’s like taking a dip in the ocean but so much more relaxing. Shots of seawater for drinking, a Gurney’s tradition, are available off-menu. “We stopped doing it officially several years ago,” says Nenner. “We’ve been around for 90 years, so there are many guests who’ve been coming for decades. Those people who know about the seawater shots ask for them.”

2. Après sun. Guests can soothe their skin with Gurney’s newest spa indulgence, a refreshing aloe wrap for the body, plus a moisturizing facial mask. The treatment finishes with hydrating coconut oil and a cooling mist. “There’s a spa menu, but it’s customizable,” says Nenner. “Our therapists are trained to make sure we’re using the right products for your skin type. They’ll make the recommendations and adjustments that suit your needs.” 3. Fitness alfresco. Gurney’s has teamed up with wellness firm the Wellth Collective to bring classes like barre, spin, Pilates, and more to the beach. Brands such as Y7, Bari Studio, CityRow, and Exhale will hold weekend classes for guests and the public. “You’re working out but still outside, breathing ocean air and enjoying your surroundings,” says Nenner.

“Every year, we try to perfect ourselves and have more offerings that give something for everybody,” says Gurney’s general manager Michael Nenner, “whether you want a quiet, shady spot to read in one of our hammocks or dinner at Scarpetta.” Here are three more ways Gurney’s plans to enhance guests’ well-being.

RAISED IN A BARN SOULCYCLE CELEBRATES 10 YEARS OF TRENDMAKING FITNESS AND FUN IN BRIDGEHAMPTON WITH A NEW CLOTHING COLLECTION.

BY LAUREN EPSTEIN
In 2007, shortly after SoulCycle opened its very first location, on New York City’s Upper West Side, the boutique cycling studio also materialized in Bridgehampton, sparking a new commitment to health and fitness across the East End. But this wasn’t your typical storefront space. SoulCycle, which now has a fervent following across the country, transformed a century-old Butter Lane potato storehouse—known as the Barn—into a cycling hub that embodies the ease and vibe of the Hamptons, with frame ceilings, beachy décor, and an open-air deck. “Fitness is now omnipresent in the Hamptons, and SoulCycle really fueled that trend,” says Laurie Cole, an instructor with the company since its 2006 inception. “The Barn has become my special place over this past decade— it holds such glorious memories.” To commemorate 10 years of influence out East, SoulCycle is releasing a limited-edition anniversary collection of apparel that reinterprets the brand’s classic black-and-white designs with language special to the Barn.
