Artist’s Muse THESE ROCKS BEHIND THE POLLOCK-KRASNER HOUSE HOLD MORE SIGNIFICANCE THAN YOU MAY THINK. BY PATRICK MCLAUGHLIN

PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIC STRIFFLER
I
’ll never forget my first visit to the Hamptons. My host that weekend spoke about the vibrancy and the color of the light and how it served as a muse for so many artists, like Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock. One of the best places to experience this magnificence of nature—as mundane as it sounds—is near a pile of rocks in the backyard of the Pollock-Krasner House & Study Center. I’ve been told that Pollock had long wanted a sculpture and had placed these rocks there with the intention of one day turning them into something more. They sit in the back of a grassy patch overlooking Accabonac Creek, which is the best spot to witness a crisp blue sky on a clear day or the misty fog rolling off the water into the trees. While most visitors come to see the splashes of vibrant colors on the floor of Pollock’s studio as proof of his most seminal works, I always add one more spot to my visit. I take a walk outside to gaze at what I truly believe was his inspiration: a pile of rocks that remain unchanged but bear witness to a symphony of light and color that’s always changing. Pollock-Krasner House & Study Center, 830 Springs-Fireplace Road, East Hampton, 324-4929; pkhouse.org H

On set at the glorious Sagaponack home of cover stars Erica and L.A. Reid.
CLOCKWISE FROM ABOVE LEFT: In our first-ever Music Issue we celebrate EVP of Republic Records Charlie Walk (LEFT), shown here with me and my husband, David; celebrating artist Peter Tunney and the surfboard he designed for our auction to raise funds for the Southampton Hospital; with Rosanna Scotto, Louis Ruggiero, Jennifer Miller, and Alexander Chudnoff at the Phoenix House Triumph for Teens gala at the home of Robin and Fred Seegal.
with it emotionally, and it forces us to move physically. I listen to varying playlists depending on what I’m up to—pop music for my workouts, melancholy songs when I’m gloomy, and country, dare I say it, when I’m behind the wheel. It reminds me of my college years in the South. We turned these pages into a virtual playlist as we celebrate our inaugural Music Issue. We know different musical genres solicit different emotions, but one thing we don’t often think about is who vets all these artists and songs? Who has the ear to recognize a sure-fire hit and knows how to market an artist, taking them from relative obscurity to universal stardom? One such person is my dear friend Charlie Follow me on Twitter at Walk, EVP of Republic Records, who is @samanthayanks and on being honored on July 25 by VH1 and hamptons-magazine.com VH1 Save The Music Foundation at Julie and Billy Macklowe’s stunning Sagaponack home. For example, Walk took the songstress Lorde and turned her into a megabrand. This man knows how to pick a winner, whether it’s up-and-coming talent or an established musician. Also in this issue is another powerhouse, Epic Records’s chairman and CEO, L.A. Reid. He rocked our world in May with his release of Xscape, an eight-song posthumous Michael Jackson album featuring new recordings that were laid down before Jackson’s unexpected passing in 2009. We photographed Reid with his wife, Erica, for our cover in their Sagaponack home. She is one of those women who makes you stop and take a beat. Erica’s beautiful, without a doubt, but her soul is the sweetest. As the mother of two kids suffering from food allergies and severe asthma, she revamped her family’s diet and wrote the thought-provoking book on parenting, The Thriving Child. During the cover shoot, we all listened to music, naturally, and spent a rocking day together. This weekend, as you’re cruising to your next fabulous gathering with friends, turn up the volume and savor the music. Be well, dress well.

I’ve always felt that music is poetry in motion, and I am so thrilled to be premiering our very first Music Issue. We dedicate it to the superstars who live here and enjoy the East End as well as the musicians from our vibrant local scene. Artists like Nancy Atlas, Paul Mahos, and New Life Crisis provide so much pleasure to us all. Record executive, musician, songwriter, record producer, record company chairman, and Hamptonite L.A. Reid and his beautiful wife, author and mommy activist Erica, appear on our cover this week. How fitting to have them! This week also brings us the Bridgehampton Polo Club’s opening day, on July 19, for the first match of the season, marking the club’s 18th anniversary. This summer, it will host a roster of internationally acclaimed players for a series of six matches at the picturesque Two Trees Farm in Bridgehampton. Follow me on Twitter at Also this Saturday, the Children’s @debrahalpert and on Museum of the East End will host its hamptons-magazine.com sixth annual Family Fair, featuring magically inspired arts and crafts, water rides, performances, games, music, food, and more. The event will take place at the museum in Bridgehampton, from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM. And if that’s not enough, the fifth Annual Unconditional Love Dinner Dance of the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation (SASF) will also take place on Saturday, July 19, at 7 PM at the foundation. All proceeds from this James Bond– themed event will benefit the SASF. We support so many of our performance and cultural centers, and I urge you to buy tickets to music and philanthropic events that raise funds and awareness for them. Music moves your soul and opens your mind to find peace and happiness. So attend a performance, move and dance to the music, and support our musically inclined community. I’ll see you in town...

Matt Lauer Emmy Award-winning television journalist Matt Lauer has been coanchor of NBC’s Today show for 17 years. He interviewed his good friends L.A. Reid and his wife, Erica, for this issue’s cover story on page 102. You have traveled the world in your work—what draws you back to the Hamptons?
I’ve been coming here since I was about 10 or 11. My parents would take us for vacations to Amagansett. But now this is where [my wife] Annette and I make our home. This is where our children go to school. It’s very much at the center of our lives. You actively engage with viewers on Twitter. What do you do to disconnect? On weekends, I can put
the phone down. It’s taken time, but over the years, I have found a way to leave it behind so that when I’m with my family, it’s family time. Describe your perfect summer day on the East End. Even when I’m not working, I still tend to wake up at 5:15 AM. My ideal day would entail a long ride on the bike or paddle boarding. Then, come home, spend time with Annette and the kids—we play epic Wiffle Ball games in the yard. We would all have lunch outside, followed by golf in the afternoon and dinner with friends at home.
Jayma Cardoso As co-owner of The Surf Lodge in Montauk, Jayma Cardoso oversees the beachinspired hot spot. The Brazilian-born hospitality impresario has focused on bringing a bohemian, creative vibe to the East End, and she offers a few of the places that inspire that sensibility in “Social Network” on page 92.

Krieger shares a photograph of a sunset at Sagg Beach in this issue’s “The End” on page 152. What is your favorite spot to shoot in the Hamptons? The house we’ve rented the past two years for vacation. The grounds and wraparound porch are beautiful, and when the late daylight streams through the windows on a clear afternoon, it creates a perfect atmosphere for photography. What do you love most about photographing food? I like my interactions with chefs because I’m working with another creative person but in a separate field. Their creativity comes with ingredients and cooking utensils while mine comes with light and cameras.
Geoffrey Zakarian In addition to being chef and owner of New York City’s The Lambs Club and culinary director of The Plaza hotel, Geoffrey Zakarian cohosts Food Network’s The Kitchen and is a judge on Chopped. He shares his go-to spots for seafood on the East End on page 74. What meal would you prepare for a day at the beach? I love packing a
bunch of great salads and grains, with the dressings and proteins on the side. A magnum of chilled Domaines Ott makes it perfect. What do you love about dining in the Hamptons? You can’t help but get seasonal food everywhere. Perfect corn and tomatoes all the time! Describe your ideal Hamptons day. With my family, anywhere. As long as we are together, experiencing and making lifetime memories beachside.

Oliver, Jelly Roll Morton, Louis Armstrong, and Sidney Bechet. Upon moving to New York in 2005 to attend Juilliard, it became clear that each brother’s musical talents complemented the other’s and, not surprisingly, their soulful melodies found an audience. “Our parents took us to New York City at least once a year from the time we were 12 to see jazz concerts and shows,” says Will. “Every subsequent visit to NYC strengthened our desire to live there and learn more about jazz music.” Now, having toured extensively up and down
the East Coast, the twins are coming to East Hampton, thanks to friend Lynn Surry, who saw them perform in Manhattan and made the connection with Guild Hall. “Not even knowing who these young men were and having been involved with Guild Hall for many years, I suggested that it would be a perfect venue for them,” Surry says. “They are very versatile and talented musicians.” Peter & Will Anderson Trio featuring Alex Wintz on guitar will perform on July 28 at 7:30 PM at Guild Hall, 158 Main St., East Hampton, 324-0806; guildhall.org.

hen identical twin brothers Peter and Will Anderson attended their first jazz big band concert at age 9, they ran home and shouted, “Mom! We know what we want to do for the rest of our lives!” Their parents were very supportive of their music every step of the way, buying the brothers instruments, private lessons, and ultimately sending them to Juilliard. “Our mother’s father, whom we never met, was a jazz fanatic and had a huge record collection, so our mom feels that we have a connection to him,” says Will. Their parents’ main message to Peter and Will has always been “Pursue what you love,” and that’s what they did. Now the brothers are striking out tempos and chords like jazz greats—to great critical acclaim from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post, among other publications. Peter and Will recently booked their first show in the Hamptons, and will play at Guild Hall on July 28. They are well aware that the Hamptons has a very musically sophisticated audience. “This excites us!” Will says. For the twins, melodies are summoned from many influences, which is apparent in their unorthodox trio instrumentation. “We draw from classical music, solo piano jazz, New Orleans early jazz, swing, and bebop music,” Will says. When they were 9, the duo picked up the clarinet and began performing around their hometown of Bethesda, Maryland; they added the saxophone a year later, and in high school incorporated the flute into their repertoire. “We chose the clarinet first because our parents bought us our first jazz CDs of Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington, and we were sold,” Will says. By age 14, Peter and Will were touring the United Kingdom as part of Dave Robinson’s Capital Focus Jazz Band, sounding out tunes from King

eeping our animals safe is a very important subject that matters very much to me and to the residents of Southampton. In 2008, I was asked to serve on a committee established by the Town of Southampton to address the issues of the municipal animal shelter and its care of animals. At one of the meetings, it was decided that because of a lack of funds, the shelter would have to close. That is when a few concerned citizens from the group, myself included, decided to privatize the facility. I became a cofounder of the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation (SASF), which became a nonprofit, privately funded foundation as of January 1, 2010. SASF takes in all strays and animals surrendered by owners, serving all the Southampton communities. The foundation is also the only open-admission shelter on the South Fork, which means it does not refuse any animal, regardless of age or breed. All animals are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated before an adoption can take place. And the training department provides free advice for caring after the dogs are adopted to ensure a permanent home. With that same purpose in mind, SASF’s director of training and behavior, Aimee Sadler, implemented the award-winning program Playing for Life, which features dog play groups

as assessment and training tools for shelter dogs; Sadler travels throughout the country and teaches other shelters to use this program, saving the lives of countless canines. So far this year, there have been more than 100 strays taken in; those are lives saved and pets returned to their homes. There is a need for a place where people who lose their pets can come find them. In addition to clinical and adoption services, the SASF offers outreach and volunteer programs, such as one-on-one visits with special-needs adults and children from organizations like the Southampton Fresh Air Home, Cleary School for the Deaf, Camp Good Grief and the life skills classes from local schools. SASF is also the only shelter on the East End to have a pet food pantry for people who have fallen on hard times so they can continue to provide for their pets. Another program is the mobile spay-neuter van, funded in part by the ASPCA. It travels all over the state providing low-cost services to financially underserved pet owners. This, in turn, keeps the population of unwanted puppies and kittens out of crowded shelters. SASF also rescues hundreds of puppy mill dogs and other animals marked for euthanasia from overcrowded shelters. SASF will never euthanize any adoptable animal!
Every animal—each adoption and life saved—is meaningful and special to me. By the same token, I deeply appreciate and value every volunteer and benefactor of the SASF. I enjoy running the thrift shop we opened in 2012—the patrons and donors are special, too. The town cannot do without a shelter—and SASF is just getting started. The shelter is halfway into its fifth year, and I think it’s a good beginning. There are so many wonderful things planned and success stories to tell in the future for SASF. It should continue, and we need the support of our community to keep going. H

When visual allure is only matched by remarkable athleticism and the command of 445 horses. But there’s no need to catch your breath quite yet. Because style like this speaks for itself.

Artistic Blend A CONVERGENCE OF ESTABLISHED ARTISTS AND UP-AND-COMING TALENT MAKE ART SOUTHAMPTON AN ANTICIPATED SUMMER EVENT. BY ROSIE PURDY
Last year’s Art Southampton drew more than 16,300 visitors.

Works on display this year at Art Southampton include (ABOVE) Alexander Calder’s The Grind Lady, 1967, and (RIGHT) Roy Lichtenstein’s Metallic Brushstroke Head, 1996.
Guests can also attend photographer Eric Holubow’s signing of his book, Abandoned: America’s Vanishing Landscape, and a conversation with artist Hunt Slonem about his new book, Bunnies. Art Fairy will host daily tours for families and children, combining art history with hands-on activities to make the sessions fun and informative. Another fair highlight is the Young Contemporaries Art Afternoon, where young museum patrons can enjoy cocktails in the Maserati VIP lounge before heading to an afterparty at Southampton Social Club. On July 26, the New York Academy of Art will host a cocktail reception where collectors and patrons can view student works curated by artist John Alexander. A portion of the proceeds will help fund academy scholarships. “When you have emerging artists being reinforced by established galleries and artists, it’s a powerful combination,” Korniloff says. The Ross School in East Hampton will also present a special exhibition at which art students will have the chance to debut some of their pieces. Korniloff, who grew up on the North Shore, has been committed to hiring Art Southampton’s contractors locally, from landscape designers, security guards, and electricians to caterers, traffic controllers, and lodging for clients. Last year, the event contributed more than $750,000 to the local economy. “Art Southampton is doing a lot of good out here,” he says. “Not just for our organization, but really integrating our business into the community. The economic impact is pretty substantial.” Art Southampton runs from July 24–28. 605 County Road 39, Southampton, 305-515-8573; art-southampton.com H

rt collectors and patrons from the world over will migrate out East this month for the third annual Art Southampton. “This is the fair that reflects the community that calls the Hamptons home in the summer,” says Nick Korniloff, director of Art Miami LLC, which presents the Hamptons show as well as the fair’s original iteration in Miami. From July 24–28, Art Southampton will showcase works from more than 80 international contemporary and modern art galleries representing artists from Asia, Europe, and North and South America. Since the fair’s inception in 2012, its ticket sales have gone through the roof. Last year, more than 16,300 people attended the show. Art Southampton reflects almost every movement the contemporary market has to offer, with a lineup of paintings, sculpture, photography, video, and technology-driven art from the 20th and 21st centuries. Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Henri Matisse, and Marc Chagall are part of this year’s heavy-hitting roster of featured artists. However, Korniloff made sure there was a good balance between established and emerging artists. “One reinforces the other and they’re equally important to the overall success of the fair,” he says. “It encourages collectors to educate themselves not just about the past, but about the current movement of the market.” Those interested in learning how to better invest in art can get advice Friday through Sunday at The Art Symposium, hosted by One Art Nation, where industry experts will speak about collecting, protecting, and appraising art. “It’s a really interactive experience for the audience,” Korniloff says. “We’re looking to whet their appetite for collecting and diversifying their assets.”

ART FULL Propeller Spinner (Antenna Series), 1990 by Keith Sonnier.
Lost in Orbit ARTIST KEITH SONNIER LIGHTS UP TRIPOLI GALLERY WITH HIS WALL-MOUNTED ELECTRIC WORKS.
A
long with other radicals like Richard Serra and Bruce Nauman, sculptor Keith Sonnier stormed the art world in the 1960s with his Minimalist and site-specific pieces that, unlike those before him, were characterized by their use of insubstantial materials like cloth, mesh, glass, and most notably, neon light. From July 17 to August 17 at Tripoli Gallery, the artist will mount “Keith Sonnier: Elliptical Transmissions,” an exhibition of his neon wall reliefs and the drawings that inspired them. The show will map the artist’s path from 1990 to 2013—a trajectory driven by his early media experiments with electrical transmissions. “I have always loved the way neon lights alter the atmosphere of space, especially as markers of life on long drives through the country,” explains Sonnier. He was initially drawn to neon as a medium because of its “hot” quality, a term he describes as “loaded with associations and suggestions.” In Propeller Spinner (SHOWN), the artist visualizes the flow of transmission energy through the use of light. Created as part of his Antenna Series in
1990, the piece was inspired by the artist’s nostalgia for radio and television antennas, which were becoming obsolete with the advent of cable. The other works on display, created over the last few years in Sonnier’s Bridgehampton studio, exhibit a turn toward the durable. When the artist moved into his 200-year-old house in Sagaponack, he struggled to adjust to its outdated lighting fixtures and decided to create his own. This led to his Chandelier Series, a sequence of curvaceous, darting light sculptures, which have become one of his most highly commissioned designs to date. In the last two decades, Sonnier’s work has included large-scale installations like the glass lobby of Lever House in Manhattan, which he lined with colored light, and a neon installation at the Caltrans building in Los Angeles. Later this year, Sonnier will create a three-tiered light installation for a new building in Vaduz, Liechtenstein. “We always seek out light,” the artist says, “even if it is artificial.” “Keith Sonnier: Elliptical Transmissions” runs from July 17 to August 17 at Tripoli Gallery, 30 Jobs Lane, Southampton, 377-3715; tripoligallery.com.

“We Still Do Business The Old Fashioned Way.” – Charlie Marder There was a time, remember, when you called and a real person answered the telephone. They showed up when they said they would and did the work on time (without you feeling you had to keep looking over their shoulder). And, the work was done for the promised price…no surprises when you got the final bill. Over the past 39 years, we have built an organization and a way of thinking that, first of all, assures that a real person will answer the telephone during business hours seven days a week. We have Marders-trained crews that enable us to guarantee your job will be done on time and within the budget. For example, our crews never leave your property while there is work to do…they will not be pulled off to work on some other job that has fallen behind schedule. We will be there when we said we would, do the job on time and within budget…guaranteed.

BY GARY WALTHER PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIC STRIFFLER
“I
’m like Al Pacino in The Godfather,” says Richie Notar. “I’m trying to get out of the business, but they keep pulling me back in.” Notar, for years the impresario behind Nobu, the conjurer of Harlow in Midtown Manhattan’s Lombardy Hotel (a scrum of financial guys at cocktail hour), and now the captain of Harlow East, which docked two months ago in Sag Harbor at the former B. Smith’s space, is just being Richie Notar. Which means charmingly insincere, except where and when it counts. Which is why in the next breath he snaps back into Richie Notar, the guy
from Brooklyn with a restaurant vision (“many different concepts in the same organization”), an in-the-trenches mentality (“He’s actually at the podium,” Executive Chef Danny Ye says to me when Notar departs for a minute to take care of something), and a gimlet eye for detail. “I want peonies, goddamn it,” he says, gesturing at the anemic bouquets along the banquettes at the back of the Harlow East dining room, one of the supplier frustrations of being on the East End. continued on page 72

continued from page 71 Does this guy really want to get out of the business when he celebrated his 10th wedding anniversary by taking his wife, Jane, for a helicopter ride, presented a bouquet, popped the Dom Perignon, and then, upon touchdown, said he had to take off to open his new restaurant? (The ploy worked, apparently.) Harlow East is a dinner-cruise yacht of a restaurant: 175 seats inside at wellspaced tables (Notar probably could have wedged in another 25 or so) and 112 outside. And here I’ll make two brash predictions: By the time you read this, the Deck 1 Booth, which faces the marina and out across Sag Harbor Bay to Shelter Island, is going to be the toughest table in town to book this summer; and by Labor Day there will have been an Alec Baldwin incident over it. Al Sharpton, Bill Bratton, and Matt Lauer have already been in, Neta-Porter booked the space for a private party, even the magazine you’re reading hosted an event here last month to preview the 2014 La Perla swim collection. Harlow East is looking to be the Rao’s of Sag Harbor. At the very least, Notar will sprinkle some sequin sparkle on the town’s clapboard character. And those peonies will be there along the banquettes, which are the equivalent of a skybox in a sports arena. You’re looking across the shipshape dining room— mahogany-brown floor and chairs against white tablecloths—through the rickrack wall of plate glass and out to what Notar calls “the big-boy boats.” (For which he’s planning a catering operation.) The decorative touches are Notar all the way: a plastic shark spray-painted gold, surfboards by Steve Miller decorated with MRIs of fish, an Andy Warhol silk screen poster for Studio 54 (where Notar got his start as a busboy), and photos of East End beaches taken from a kite-mounted camera. But they’re touches. “Why compete with that?” asks Notar, scything his left arm toward the water.

“I’m trying to get out of the business, but they keep pulling me back in.” —RICHIE NOTAR The menu is that increasingly frequent instance of “high-lowcavore,” which means crowd-pleasing dishes—frito misto, heirloom tomato, chicken paillard, lobster sliders—with a saucy spin of local sourcing and toque technique. Thus, those lobster sliders come in a half-open, pan-fried Asian steam bun that looks like prank-store chattering teeth. The lobster is poached four minutes in salty water and then thrown on the grill to concentrate the flavor. The binder is Kewpie mayonnaise, a smooth, creamy Japanese concoction invented in 1925 and made with rice rather than distilled vinegar. “It’s eggier and sweeter,” chef Ye says. At Harlow East, you can gleefully careen from purist pillar to joyride post. Goodwater Farms microgreens come with the chicken paillard, and one whiff of the sweet earthy greens could make you forget the chicken altogether. (Pilates lovers, order the microgreens by themselves and follow with the pensive root-vegetable salad.) There is also a side of cauliflower that is candied and rouged, a dish that a food engineer would adore: sweet and crunchy (just the near side of al dente), and inflected with sesame spikes and a nice peelingrubber track of heat down your tongue as the finale. You shouldn’t be seen with this dish, but you probably will. And if you do, then you might as well be in for a dollar and follow up with the lobster mac and cheese. Chef Ye, who comes from Southern California, has imported his ancestry (Korean) in the form of kochujang, the misolike condiment that puts the heat in the lamb-meatball marinara, uses pickles as a stand-in for olives to turbocharge the grilled baby octopus salad, and the dried kimchi and sherry mignonette to give oysters a tang without masking the flavor of the bivalves. continued on page 74

continued from page 72 (The kimchi is fermented, dehydrated, then broken up in a process that takes a minimum of 72 hours. “It’s like making jerky,” Ye says.) Harlow East, like its namesake, is named for Notar’s daughter, not the 1930s screen star. But there’s a hint of her in the little hostess chorus line at the podium: four slim-waisted women in navyblue rompers, the one-piece playsuit reminiscent of the pinup age. The outfits show off their legs and reveal just a dimple of derriere as they walk down the dining room. But they wear them confidently, and the look is not only playfully nautical, but seems in the “laughing vamp” spirit of the 1930s Harlow herself. 1 Long Wharf, Sag Harbor, 725-5858; sagharbor.harlownyc.com H
Pierre’s in Bridgehampton feels like “the South of France,” according to Geoffrey Zakarian.
Ocean Fresh ON THE ROCKS Beverage director Tyler Drinkwater—and yes, that’s his family name—is a fan of “boozeforward cocktails.” The menu at Harlow East is a scaled-down version of the one at the Lombardy Hotel, which means vodka is the base alcohol of half the menu. “Vodka is made for cocktails,” says Drinkwater, “because it’s a blank canvas,” meaning it plays nicely with many ingredients. He uses Reyka, a vodka from Iceland, in the Pamplemousse, which gives free rein to pineapple and grapefruit juice, and overlays it with a skim of Greenhook Beach plum gin. On the wine side, “there’s the Sonoma coast Red Car Pinot Noir rosé, a wholecluster, barrel-fermented floral we are serving out of magnum.” There’s also East End flag-waving in the Channing Daughters Pinot Grigio, which, says Drinkwater,“ has a beautiful upfront waxiness, mid-palate lushness, and lingering salinity.”

When it comes to summertime wine and seafood pairings, Paul Chevalier, national fine wine director of Shaw-Ross International Importers, which distributes many of the Hamptons’ premium wines and spirits, advises sticking to white wines, rosés, and the occasional glass of bubbly. “The golden rule is that lighter wines go with lighter foods,” he says. “Red wine with seafood is very difficult.” Chevalier recommends crisp, acidic wines like Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc, which pair nicely with lean catches such as calamari, salmon, and raw oysters. “Anything you’d want to squeeze a fresh lemon on,” he says. For an unexpected light white flavor, try a bottle of Sancerre, which Chevalier ABOVE: Mussels go well with a regards as “the chic lighter white wine, like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. Sauvignon Blanc.” Crab cakes, lobster rolls, and heavier seafood dishes with rich sauces call for fuller-bodied whites with fruity undertones, like un-oaked Chardonnay, which is lighter than the oaked variety, or Albariño, an increasingly popular wine from Spain. For more exotic, flavorful fare, opt for rosé, which can stand up to spicier cuisines like Thai or Mexican. Its versatility makes it a great dinner party option. “The beauty of rosé is that it starts like a white and finishes like a red,” Chevalier says. “It covers the whole spectrum.” Château d’Esclans’s Whispering Angel (available at Bottle Hampton, 850 County Road 39, Southampton, 353-3313; bottlehampton.com) is a subtle, refreshing rosé, while the local Wölffer Estate Vineyard (139 Sagg Road, Sagaponack, 537-5106; wolffer.com) rosé is more robust. A glass of Champagne or dry sparkling wine also makes a great welcome drink and can be paired with light seafood hors d’oeuvres, like marinated scallops seasoned with dill or tuna carpaccio topped with cracked pepper. No matter the wine of choice, Chevalier suggests large bottles like magnums or double magnums for larger outdoor parties. “When you’re in that setting, bigger bottles are more relaxed, more fun, and easy to share,” he says. “That’s the whole beauty of summertime dining.”

THE DISH
Fresh Catch WHOLE OR FILETED, ON THE HALF SHELL, OR IN A RICH BROTH, SEAFOOD ON THE EAST END IS THE QUINTESSENTIAL SUMMER MEAL. BY MATTHEW WEXLER
T
he Hamptons thrives on its relationship with the ocean, and summertime is prime time for seafood restaurants here to step up their games. The Clam Bar (2025 Montauk Hwy., Amagansett, 267-6348; clambaronline.com) has been counting on local fishermen since its inception 33 years ago. The boat-to-table cuisine is inspired by the daily bounty arriving from vessels such as The Misty Rose, which has been supplying the restaurant with fresh lobsters for 33 years. The clam dishes rely on several varieties of the bivalves, including littlenecks, steamers, and whole belly. General manager Brian Mooney says the first chef created the chowder recipe and “we’ve never changed a thing.” Bostwick’s Chowder House (277 Pantigo Road, East Hampton, 3241111; bostwickschowderhouse.com) offers its own take on both Manhattan and New England styles of its namesake stew, along with a rich lobster bisque and corn chowder. But owner-chef Chris Eggert doesn’t shy away from global flavors. His seared tuna with crispy won tons offers a refreshing start to a summer meal. Seared on a scorching-hot cast-iron skillet, the sushigrade tuna is garnished with cucumber-wasabi sauce, sriracha mayonnaise, and served with a yuzu-wasabi dipping sauce and seaweed salad from Stuart’s Seafood Market. Chef Paul LaBue from The Seafood Shop (356 Montauk Hwy., Wainscott, 537-0633; theseafoodshop.com) has his personal favorites, including blackfish—a meaty fish perfect for grilling or baking—as well as
sustainable bluefish and porgies. His tip for cooking thicker filets like Chilean sea bass or striped bass? Sear the filet only on one side, then finish it in the oven, never flipping it over. This technique allows the fish to stay moist but crisp and browned on one side. If you’d prefer to spend your East End days eating rather than cooking, LaBue’s cioppino is packed with lobster, shrimp, sea scallops, local monkfish, and littleneck clams, all swimming in a saffron-infused shellfish tomato broth. East Hampton Point’s (295 Three Mile Harbor Road/Hog Creek Road, East Hampton, 329-2800; easthamptonpoint.com) gorgeous water views, spectacular sunsets, and the navy and white décor recall the ambience of the South of France—as does its shellfish stew. This spin on bouillabaisse overflows with locally harvested shrimp, monkfish, mussels, and vegetables. For a touch of joie de vivre, indulge in a dozen Peconic Pride oysters with a bracing splash of mignonette. The Living Room at c/o The Maidstone (207 Main St., East Hampton, 324-5006; themaidstone.com) relies on Swedish chef Mathias Brogie to merge classic Nordic-Scandinavian fare with eclectic Modern American cuisine. The results are seaworthy showstoppers, including whole-baked black bass stuffed with thyme and rosemary and served with brown butter and grilled vegetables. For authentic fare with Baltic flair, go for the Lojrom caviar or imported Matjes herring, served with a Swedish egg roll and horseradish. H

Coast to Coast GIADA DE LAURENTIIS BRINGS ITALIAN EASE—AND HER TAKE ON SPAGHETTI WITH CLAMS—TO THE EAST END. BY SCOTT FELDMAN
SERVES

1 lb. dried spaghetti ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil 2 shallots, thinly sliced 5 to 7 cloves garlic, finely chopped 2 ½ lbs. Manila clams, scrubbed clean ½ cup dry white wine ½ cup fresh parsley, chopped 2 tbsp. unsalted butter, diced into small cubes Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 lemon, zested, for garnish
F
or chef and TV personality Giada De Laurentiis, Southern California is home, but the East End is a beloved annual retreat. She just opened her first restaurant, Giada, at the Cromwell in Las Vegas, and now she’s taking refuge in Amagansett to recharge, share time with family and friends, and feed the soul.
In a large pot, bring to a boil 6 quarts of salted water. Add pasta; stir constantly in the beginning to prevent noodles from sticking together. Cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large
sauté pan. When almost smoking, add shallots and garlic, and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add the clams and wine. Cover and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes or until most clams have opened. Add 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Whisk in butter to thicken sauce slightly. Drain pasta in a colander. Do not rinse pasta with water— this will remove the pasta’s natural starches. Place pasta in the clam sauté pan and mix thoroughly. Check seasoning. Pour pasta into large serving bowl. Zest lemon over the dish, being careful not to zest the white part of the lemon, which is bitter. Garnish with remaining parsley. Serve immediately. Go to hamptons-magazine.com/dining for an extra recipe.

SPAGHETTI WITH CLAMS
When did you first come to the Hamptons?
Three years ago—this will be our fourth summer out here. But you also have sun and sea in California. Here it’s a more relaxed environment, and an escape since it’s not home. The water’s shallower and warmer waters than the Pacific’s— and I love all the farmers markets! Which are your favorite towns out here? Amagansett and Montauk. Do you have any local spots where you like to eat? Pizzeteria Brunetti in Westhampton, The Surf Lodge, 1770 House Restaurant and Inn, Nick & Toni’s, and Dave’s Grill, to name a few. What would be your ideal summer dinner party? My friends and family have these great clambakes right on the beach. What would make it the ultimate party would be if Jimmy Buffett showed up! Where would you get your ingredients? Balsam Farms. And to drink? Caves d’Esclans Whispering Angel rosé on ice. Do you like the restaurant world or TV world better? Restaurant world. Equal amount of drama but only one costume, and I love to wear it. If you weren’t a chef… I’d be a racecar driver. Who would you love to cook for? The Pope. Or Maleficent. H

Taking It Easy JOHN VARVATOS HITS THE BEACH WITH A NEW COLLECTION OF LIGHTWEIGHT LINENS. BY JULIE EARLE LEVINE
J
ohn Varvatos, the designer whose label is known for refined tailoring and modern lines with a rock ’n’ roll edge, has become a fixture in the Hamptons since setting up shop in East Hampton seven years ago. He says the store has really become essential to the personality of the company and the brand. “It gives us our beachy, laid-back vibe when compared to the city stores.” Varvatos, who lives in Manhattan and spends time visiting friends in the Hamptons, made his East End store a more casual presentation of his gritty style (“We love to do fun events [at the store] on the weekends,” he says), with an earthy color scheme softened with plush textures and eclectic rock ’n’ roll
memorabilia that he hand-picked, such as vintage records by the Rolling Stones and Velvet Underground. All this creates a relaxed yet elegant mood for his summer collection, which Varvatos describes as having a “classic color palette, with a twist.” There are a lot of whites, light blues, and plenty of cream, sand, and black, highlighted with red and dashes of silver. “I have a great reverence for the craft of old-world tailoring, but a big part of what I love designing is functional, timeless clothing that is created to be lived in,” he says. That’s why the East Hampton store carries a large assortment of linen that’s great for the season, including luxe V-neck tees in a variety of colors and slim pants that feel light and breezy. When Varvatos packs for the weekend, his essentials are swimsuits, linen T-shirts, and sandals. “I always go light and airy,” he says. This year, the designer is introducing linen boat shoes. “They weigh nothing and feel so good on the foot.” Although he spends most of his time at home with his family and friends entertaining, you may just see Varvatos sporting his new look at The Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett. “It’s a room with just 75 people or so watching,” he says of the famous music venue. “It’s intimate, and that’s very nice.” 54 Newtown Lane, East Hampton, 324-4440; johnvarvatos.com H

Channel rock ’n’ roll greats with a turquoise showstopper from Maud Cabot. The glamour of ’70s rock lives in the creations of jeweler Maud Cabot, which take the era’s eclectic, free-spirited style and injects it with a jolt of extreme luxury. “It harks back to the musicians who in that time didn’t have a lot of money and had to cobble together their looks,” Cabot says. “They looked so great on a shoestring wearing piles of silver and turquoise. That whole feeling is so very strong to me.” She cites Gregg Allman as a particular inspiration. Cabot’s latest creation, strands of Mexican turquoise beads interspersed with emeralds and diamonds, however, falls in the realm of the very established rock star.

Seo couldn’t imagine setting up camp anywhere else. “The clientele out here is quite worldly and global,” she explains. “They know what they’re looking at and what they’re purchasing.” For her Summer collection, Seo was transfixed by digital prints she commissioned from her graphic artist. “He distorted, filtered, and altered his pictures to create some great imagery,” she says. “[He made some] cool graphics that didn’t feel forced or pretentious.” The jewel of the collection is the sophisticated, wear-anywhere Digital crew, an urban take on the T-shirt. “It reflects everything I get excited about,” she says,“It’s versatile and can be worn several ways: With a heel, it works perfectly for a gallery opening and dinner out, but paired with leather slides and sun-kissed skin, you’re set for a groovy barbecue or an afternoon hanging out with friends.” Keogh + 51inc, 10A Jobs Digital crew, 51inc ($220).

Pretty Shore WHERE JAYMA CARDOSO SPENDS HER DOWNTIME WHEN SHE’S NOT AT HER SURF LODGE IN MONTAUK. BY LAUREN FINNEY
A
s part of the team behind Montauk hot spot The Surf Lodge, owner and managing partner Jayma Cardoso has carved a niche out of the far reaches of Long Island. The Brazilian-born hospitality impresario has made The Surf Lodge into one of the dominant forces in summer nightlife. Here, she shares her favorite places to shop when not greeting friends and guests at her wildly popular spot. Cardoso has made Montauk her destination out East since she was 19. She explores this easternmost point of the Hamptons for laid-back, unique fashion, from RRL (57 Main St., East Hampton, 907-9201; ralphlauren.com)—“It has a great vintage store upstairs!” she says—and Whalebone Creative (65 Tuthill Road, Montauk, 516-6586542; whalebonecreative.com) to The Surf Lodge’s own Surf Bazaar (183 Edgemere St., Montauk, 668-1035; thesurfbazaar.com). A favorite is Melet

Mercantile (102 Industrial Road, Montauk, 6689080; meletmercantile.com), where “Bob [Melet, the owner] collects great vintage and eclectic oneof-a-kind pieces.” When not planning some of summer’s most exclusive concerts, Cardoso likes to relax with the Montauk Stone Massage at the Seawater Spa in the newly renovated Gurney’s Inn (290 Old Montauk Hwy., Montauk, 668-2345; gurneys inn.com) or with a luxurious blowout from Rose Schwehr at her Endz Salon (28 S.

Amagansett, 267-7717) jar candles, which are “locally made, and the fragrance makes you feel like you’re at the beach.” Cardoso often stops by Lazypoint Variety (208 Main St., Amagansett, 527-5377). “Owners Claudja Bicalho and Mark Wilson wander the world and bring back incredible finds,” she says. Cardoso also frequents Love Adorned (156 Main St., Amagansett, 267-7720; loveadorned.com) and MONC XIII (40 Madison St., Sag Harbor, 8083333; monc13.com). “Natasha Esch [of MONC XIII] really finds the most beautiful pieces with old-world craftsmanship,” she says. One of Cardoso’s favorite pieces is a surfboard painted by Ross Bleckner for Paddle for Humanity, which hangs in The Surf Lodge’s lobby, giving the space a sense of the outdoors. “Montauk is about being outside,” Cardoso says, “so [I bring in] as much light, air, and natural beauty as possible!” H

TIME HONORED
Keeping Tempo THIS SUMMER, AS HAMPTONS PARTNERS WITH VH1 SAVE THE MUSIC, A SELECT GROUP OF WATCH BRANDS SHARE THEIR OWN PASSIONATE PARTICIPATION IN THE WORLD OF MUSIC. BY ROBERTA NAAS PHOTOGRAPHY BY JEFF CRAWFORD
STYLING BY TERRY LEWIS
O
ver the past few years, several watch brands have celebrated the art of writing melodies and lyrics through design collaborations with some of music’s greatest names. Gucci Timepieces & Jewelry, for instance, aligned itself four years ago with The Recording Academy (the organization behind the Grammy Awards), and now it’s honoring that partnership with special limited-edition timepieces. The brand recently launched the Gucci Grammy Interlocking watch with a dial made of Grammium—the material used to forge the gramophone-shaped trophy of the Grammys. Swiss watch manufacturer Claude Bernard, meanwhile, has gone in a different direction. It partnered with Birdland, one of New York’s most iconic jazz houses, to create a watch honoring the club, which celebrates its 65th anniversary this year. That limited-edition design was inspired by Birdland’s rich history and the legendary talent of Charlie “Bird” Parker, who was the club’s headliner when it opened. Similarly, Movado serves as the lead sponsor of the concert series of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Youth Orchestra—a 17-piece big band composed of high school students from the tristate area. The brand, which fully supports jazz and the arts, has named legendary jazz musician Wynton Marsalis its artistic director. As Mencius so wisely stated: “If the King loves music, there is little wrong in the land.” For more watch features and expanded coverage, go to hamptons-magazine. com/watches. H
This Swiss-made Gucci Grammy Interlocking watch ($1,495) is part of the Interlocking collection, which features a modern take on the brand’s GG interlocking motif. The watch is crafted with a PVD case—whose caseback is engraved with the Grammy Awards logo—and a dial made with Grammium. Americana Manhasset, 2124 Northern Blvd., Manhasset, 516-365-0994; gucci.com. From Claude Bernard, this Birdland watch ($975) is created in a limited edition of 650 pieces and features a black dial with the Birdland logo at 6 o’clock and a saxophone imprint recalling the instrument Charlie Parker played. The 42mm watch is Swiss made and houses an automatic movement. By appointment only, London Jewelers, 2 Main St., East Hampton, 716-5111; claudebernard.ch. From Movado, this Sapphire watch ($1,195) is crafted in gold-plated stainless steel with a gold-toned signature dot. The aesthetic appeal of this watch represents the brand’s commitment to culture and the arts. Tourneau, Roosevelt Field, 630 Old Country Road, Garden City, 516-873-0209; movado.com

— Tim Davis
Hamptons Magazine: You were just
ranked by the Wall Street Journal as the #4 Real Estate Professional in volume in the United States. How does it feel? Tim Davis: It was quite an
accomplishment and actually feels pretty good. My immediate focus is on understanding the luxury market and that requires my constant vigilance. I am not simply representing a home, this is an important investment and lifestyle choice for my clients. 100% client satisfaction is the ranking I strive for and cementing lifetime relationships that go beyond any list. HM: How did you become a true
power broker? TD: I have always believed in
a strong work ethic. From the beginning of my career 33 years ago, I viewed each transaction and opportunity as a future steppingstone and building block. I am probably the only career agent in the market. HM: The homes you sell are
exceptional properties. What do you learn about these listings that successfully draw in high-figure deals time and again? TD: Buyers will pay the highest
price for a home or property in the most prime locations. They
will sacrifice the structure for the sake of a great parcel of land or a particular waterfront or oceanfront setting. HM: You have an impressive roster
of listings, what do you look for when representing a property? TD: For me there needs to be
some element of singular quality, whether it is location, architecture, or style. A 30 room mansion in the estate section obviously has a different appeal than let’s say a pristine Sagaponack beach house. In some ways, they both represent the breadth of our inventory and the worldwide appeal to this real estate market. HM: Any notable sale? Estates or
clients who you enjoyed working with the most? TD: I have had the privilege
of working with some of the most important and influential individuals in business, finance, and the entertainment industry. Very often, these transactions are handled quietly and confidentially. A current notable transaction was my very recent sale of Wooldon Manor on Gin Lane for a second time in 6 months. This is record breaking even for my own career. HM: What is a typical “day in the
life” for you?
TD: My day starts early and each
one is different. It is one of the things that are so incredibly enjoyable about this business. Each day is new and presents fresh challenges and opportunities. I’m a big believer in being available to my clients and customers, so I’m often checking emails and messages early in the morning till late in the evening.
COMPOUND ON OLD TOWN POND In the heart of Southampton Village, estate offers nearly five acres unspoiled land. CO-EXCLUSIVE $24M
HM: As a native of the Hamptons,
would you ever consider working elsewhere, or do you consider this your home turf, your domain? TD: I love living here. It has been a
uniquely wonderful place to raise my family. On top of that, I am fortunate to be able to work in one of the most vibrant stable markets in the world, moments from my doorstep. We are a luxury brand, providing services to buyers and sellers from around the globe. My client list is both national and international, this is because we offer them an invaluable understanding of the Hamptons luxury real estate market. I live and breathe the business, and along with my family, it’s the fabric of my life.

CAMP REID As his record label, Epic Records, enjoys the success of his latest album release, music mogul L.A. REID and his wife, ERICA, retreat to their Sagaponack home for some tranquillity. Here, they talk with Today show host MATT LAUER about balancing work with health and wellness, and the importance of family.

E
pic Records chairman and CEO, L.A. Reid, recently scored big with Xscape, a posthumous Michael Jackson album comprising eight previously unreleased songs from the King of Pop. Its lead single, “Love Never Felt So Good” featuring Justin Timberlake, has topped charts throughout the world—and it is Michael Jackson’s first Top 10 hit in the US since 2001. The success of such a massive undertaking is exhilarating for L.A., who is now spending the summer season at his house in Sagaponack with his family. He and his wife, Erica, cherish their time here (“It’s a quick and easy paradise just a two-hour drive from Manhattan,” Erica says), as it gives them time to reconnect with each other and their two children, Arianna, 13, and Addison, 11. For the Reids, family bonds and thoughtful parenting are essential. Erica wrote about her full-time dedication to her kids in her 2012 book The Thriving Child and credits the lifestyle in the Hamptons for helping to achieve a positive environment for her kids. Today show host Matt Lauer, a close friend of the Reids, spoke with the couple to find out more about how they balance a demanding schedule with the necessities of good, old-fashioned family time. Matt Lauer: L.A., let’s talk about Xscape and how that album came to be. What was the idea behind it? L.A. Reid: It was my being at Epic Records and trying to find something magnificent to work on. Epic is a
label we literally started almost from scratch, so we were trying to find something big. I spoke to John Branca, who runs the Michael Jackson estate, and asked him to let me into the archives to see what we could find. We found about 20 songs and picked 10 of them to work on, and it’s worked out really well. Then I brought in Justin Timberlake to feature on the first single, “Love Never Felt So Good.” Justin was my ambassador, which has led to worldwide sales of more than 2.5 million copies. ML: Were you surprised by what was in that archive or were you expecting a gold mine? LAR: I didn’t really know what to expect—I went into it open-minded. But I was surprised by how much was there because I knew Michael, and he didn’t record a lot of music that he didn’t release. Some artists record endlessly; Michael recorded purposefully to release music, so I was surprised to find as much. And recently I found more, like some Michael Jackson-Queen music that’s pretty unbelievable. ML: Erica, are you the type who likes it if L.A. brings some of his work home? Does he bring a CD home and say, “You gotta hear this?” Erica Reid: I get to hear it first. I love to listen to what he is working on and be a part of it that way. It’s fascinating and, more than anything, it’s fun. It’s great music for the home. ML: L.A., I’ve watched some of these meetings where guys like you get around the table and play music and everybody decides if there is the potential for a hit. Does

Erica have the “hit ear”? [Erica laughs] LAR: No, but she has a good “hit eye.” When I was going through cover comps for Xscape, I would bring the artwork home. I had no idea the one that ended up being the cover was as good as it was, but when I showed it to Erica, she said, “This is the one!”—and it ended up being the one. So she actually did participate in arguably the most important part of the project because it was the visual that got everyone’s attention. She was very helpful. ML: “Love Never Felt So Good” is a hit around the world. Could it have been a hit before, years ago? LAR: Oh yes, it would have been a much bigger hit. I don’t know that it would have measured up to Michael Jackson’s Thriller, but it was an outtake from Off The Wall so it could well have worked on that album. ML: What is the follow-up single? LAR: A song called “A Place With No Name” that was originally recorded by the group America and that Michael redid. We’re hoping to release it on August 11. ML: Let’s cross over from work to life. Erica, what does the Hamptons do for you? ER: The Hamptons is what St-Tropez is to France. Here, we receive no mail, no deliveries, therefore it’s a great break from the day-to-day life in the city. As a mother, I am constantly going, and I get no break because I’m on duty 24/7. Coming to the Hamptons allows me to exhale. It’s family time, honestly. We have a little bit of socialization but that’s not the main focus of it. It’s the one place that connects my family and me without distractions, and we can also connect with our friends in a more intimate and comfortable way. LAR: The Hamptons is a place of tranquillity and natural beauty. I love the ocean, the beauty, the beaches. I look forward to those three to four months during the summer when we can come out every weekend. ML: You have been covered as a celebrity couple for some time and people might assume that if you throw a party at your house, it will be littered with A-listers. Is that your crowd? LAR: That comes and goes. There are times when we entertain and it’s purely family and close friends. Sometimes those friends happen to be celebrities and recording artists, or wonderful people like you and your wife, Annette [Roque]. But for the most part, entertainment is a fact of life for us. We don’t give a party with the idea of having a house full of celebrities and famous people; we give a party with the idea of having a great time, and it doesn’t matter one way or the other. ML: Because you want to disconnect so much when you are out here, how do you feel as parents—and as people—about social media? ER: It’s challenging. You have to babysit your children in a totally different way. I trust my children, but we have to monitor them. It’s like watching certain ratings on movies and television shows to see what’s
104
appropriate or not appropriate. Addison is 11, and this kid has outsmarted me so many times about opening Instagram accounts, and I’ve had to shut each one down because he is too young and not emotionally capable of understanding what it really means. My daughter, Arianna, is older and more mature. She gets it, and I don’t have to stay concerned with her. It’s important to educate them and let them know that not only what you put out there is always out there, but that you are setting an example for yourself. Once you press “send,” there is no rewind button. LAR: I can shut down much better here, but social media is a fact of life, and it is a little addicting. I do find myself looking at Twitter; I don’t tweet a lot, but I look at it to see what’s going on. It’s a way of being connected culturally. What I continue to ask myself is how much of social media is indicative of the times we live in and how much of it is actually harmful. I don’t know the answer. ML: What about the kids, Erica? Do you see a difference in them when they are at the house on the weekend versus in New York? ER: The children love to be here. It is an extension of their life and it’s great to bring it out here and let them flourish in a way they aren’t able to in the city. They can get on their bikes and ride to the beach or to the corner store. They just have more of a sense of freedom, and with nature being around them, it’s more calming. It has a great effect on their spirits. LAR: Also, Erica is so health-conscious and we’re all about good, clean living. Out here, with the availability of organic foods, she keeps us all healthy. We call this “Camp Erica.” ER: I love getting the seasonal fresh, local foods here. I want my children to thrive in today’s world, especially with the challenges kids face today. One way I contribute to them doing so is by making them good foods so they can flourish. In the city, the challenge is that my kids are at the age when they can pick up the phone and use their allowance to order delivery. Here, there is no such thing. For instance, right now I’m making homemade granola, so that’s their breakfast, and they can have it outside in nature with this scenery. It all creates such a magical feeling. ML: Do you have a place you like to go that is away from the scene, where you feel like a local? LAR: I feel like a local when I’m at Pierre’s in Bridgehampton. ER: It’s the movie theater in East Hampton for me. It’s a neighborhood spot and the only thing that’s open past 6 or 7 PM without going to someone’s invite. ML: You are both very busy with work and travel. How do you reconnect after those stressful periods? LAR: It’s something that requires work when you are busy, particularly when you love what you do—and I am fortunate enough to really love what I do. On the weekends we pretty much shut down from work, and it’s been that way for the majority of my career. The weekends are dedicated to my wife and children. H

All-Star ITS STORIED HISTORY OF HOSTING MUSIC LEGENDS AND WORK WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY HAVE MADE THE STEPHEN TALKHOUSE AN AMAGANSETT INSTITUTION.
By Peter Honerkamp
“W
e went there for everything we needed. We went there when thirsty, of course, and when hungry, and when dead tired. We went there when happy, to celebrate, and when sad, to sulk. We went there after weddings and funerals, and for something to settle our nerves, and always for a shot of courage just before. We went there when we didn’t know what we needed, hoping someone might tell us. We went there when looking for love, or sex, or trouble, or for someone who had gone missing, because sooner or later everyone turned up there. Most of all we went there when we needed to be found.” —Excerpt from The Tender Bar by J.R. Moehringer That was written about a different bar in a different place, but it could easily apply to The Stephen Talkhouse. For 27 years, we’ve been a local bar that doubles as a sanctuary. It’s a place where everyone is equal and everyone is accepted. There are lots of places out here populated by people born on third base who think they hit a triple, but the Talkhouse is laid-back, unpretentious, and populated by a group of friends uninterested in proving anything to anybody. A gay man or a single woman can come here alone and feel completely at ease. For those of us who work here, that egalitarian spirit infuses our relationships. There are two signs over the bar. One, from It’s a Wonderful Life, reads: “No man is a failure who has friends.” The other says: “Customers come and customers go. Here at the Talkhouse the employee is always right.”

NOISE WE HIGHLIGHT THE VERY BEST LOCAL STARS WHO HAVE HELPED SHAPE THE HAMPTONS MUSIC SCENE INTO A VIBRANT MAGNET OF CREATIVITY.
THE SOULFUL TYPE
Dan Bailey was born and raised in the Hamptons, though he differs from much of the incoming crowds DAN BAILEY to the East End: “I grew up super poor in a really opulent place,” says the soft-spoken singer/songwriter, whose parents were on welfare and lived with a unique pocket of people who included alternative-healing circles and a community of creative artists. He recalls “peeking over the hedges, seeing mansions and people driving fancy cars.” The leader of Dan Bailey Tribe, whose music he describes as “soulful island surf funk with intoxicating roots rhythms,” chronicled this dichotomy years ago in the song “Peace of the
110
Sun.” He was frustrated with the idea that some people had more money than they’d ever spend, while others—namely his family—were struggling to survive. “The Hamptons is a place where I come from,” says the opening verse of the song, “where everybody’s running to get their peace of the sun—I think that I better run.” Only recently did Bailey record this song with Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers on the drums. They performed together last month at the Reyka Solstice Party at The Surf Lodge in Montauk, and the pair is set to release a four-song EP. “The Hamptons is a special part of the world. It’s beautiful—the nature, the beaches, the ocean,” he says. “There’s a lot of life out here, and culture and creative energy. There’s a reason why many of the richest people in the world choose to spend their summers here.” danbaileytribe.com

Paul Mahos first started establishing himself in the Hamptons in the early ’90s and “just PAUL kind of stayed out MAHOS here because the work was great.” He had just gotten off the road from a years-long tour as a featured player in a production called Elvis: A Musical Celebration. Mahos was emceeing at Hamptons Beach Club when the owner opened a new bar called Dockers Waterside. “There’s nothing better than performing, entertaining, and having people love it,” says Mahos,

who has fronted the band New Life Crisis for 20-plus years since replacing his brother Jerry on vocals. The group has been playing Dockers ever since it opened, and they’ll be there every Tuesday night through Labor Day. They will also be the house band at The Arden in Port Jefferson. Signed to Tommy Boy Records in 2000, their debut single, “Daylight,” was rerecorded by No Angels and sold more than 3 million copies worldwide. More recently, their material—described as an “original mashup” of dance music and jazz—has been featured on television series and in several major motion pictures. Over the years, what Mahos has loved most
about playing for people in the Hamptons is their willingness to let the band explore a vast soundscape of style. “It was the relationship I’ve had with the Hamptons crowd that allowed me to explore doing Johnny Cash as a dance version, into Elton John’s ‘Rocket Man’ as a dance version, into a completely odd version of ‘Lovesong’ by The Cure, and melding them all together into one cohesive little medley that we do off-the-cuff, like jazz,” Mahos says. “The Hamptons crowd will give you latitude because they want you to go places, and I’m used to doing that.” New Life Crisis plays every Tuesday night at 8 PM at Dockers Waterside, 94 Dune Road, East Quogue, 653-0653; newlifecrisis.com.

“WHEN I STARTED PLAYING IN THE HAMPTONS, THERE WAS A HANDFUL OF BARS THAT PRESENTED LIVE MUSIC, AND IT WAS A VERY, VERY SMALL SCENE.” Caroline Doctorow at Sag Main Beach.
THE FOLK ARTIST
Caroline Doctorow never looked back after coming to the Hamptons 27 years ago and finding CAROLINE a gig at a little bar on DOCTOROW Main Street in Sag Harbor. When asked about how receptive the Hamptons community has been to folk music—often broadly labeled as Americana—she responds, “It’s always been an area that’s been very welcoming to me.” Doctorow name-checks the likes of Bob Dylan,
Donovan, and Pete Seeger, a native New Yorker who died earlier this year, as lifelong influences. “When I started playing in the Hamptons, there was a handful of bars that presented live music, and it was a very, very small scene,” recalls Doctorow, whose songs have appeared on the soundtrack to director Sidney Lumet’s 1983 film Daniel, and has been heard in the PBS series Freedom: A History of US. “Over the years, it’s grown beautifully to be thriving like it is now.” Locally, the artist has gravitated toward performing at Suffolk Theater in Riverhead and Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor.
Doctorow has released two retrospective albums in which she interpreted the songs of earlier American folk acts like Richard and Mimi Farina; and, like all her albums, last summer’s Little Lovin’ Darling received national radio play and earned her comparisons to Emmylou Harris. Next month she’ll debut a retrospective collection of material from her first nine studio albums. “The great songwriters of the 1960s are really whom I still go back to,” she says. Caroline Doctorow performs July 18 at 5 PM at the Hampton Library in Bridgehampton, 2478 Main St., Bridgehampton, 537-0015; carolinedoctorow.com.

THE ISLAND MAN
Winston Irie says the first time he came to the Hamptons it reminded him of home. Born and WINSTON raised in Guyana, Irie IRIE arrived in New York in 1979, but it wasn’t until 1993 that he “discovered” the Hamptons. “In the summertime, it’s tropical. It’s an island vibe,” says Irie, who spends the season out here every year. “I love the music, and the people are very appreciative of my talent, so it goes together— the people, the music, and the weather.” Initially, he played his Caribbean-influenced amalgamation of reggae, gospel, R&B, and rock at places like The Sloppy Tuna and Dancing Crab. These days, he fills out his summer schedule with a calendar of shows throughout the Hamptons at spots like Navy Beach, Solar East, East Hampton Point, Westlake Fish House, and, of course, The Stephen Talkhouse. “When I’m out here, it’s not about me,” Irie says. “It’s all about the people.” It’s why he’s known for adapting his shows and the band’s lineup of percussion, African drums, bass, and guitar players from one venue to another. As a result, he has never played the same show twice. “I grew in quality instead of quantity,” he explains. World-famous

soccer player Pelé has been known to stop by The Talkhouse to see him perform. Lennie Kravitz has come to watch him play in Manhattan, and Irie has performed with David Letterman’s musical director, Paul Schaffer, among other artists. It’s been quite a musical journey since
exper iencing the culture shock of coming to America, but then and now, Irie says live music is a give-and-take experience that unites people. Winston Irie performs at One Love Sundays at Navy Beach on July 20 at 5 PM and at Westlake Fish House on July 22 at 5 PM, 917-806-1951.
“I’M THE HARDEST-WORKING UNKNOWN IN THE BUSINESS.” KLYPH B CK Klyph Black
THE GREATEST GIG
Klyph Black has been playing in the Hamptons since the mid-’70s, when he took over an acoustic set at Snugglers Cove in KLYPH BLACK Amagansett. After a few years, he assembled a tight-knit band that wasn’t too big to play the Cove, but filled out the sound with drums, harmonica, and bass. This is before The Stephen Talkhouse had live bands—when it was just a bar with a jukebox. In 1988 new ownership took over, and Black started his long-standing relationship (he calls them family) with the famous venue. He was essentially the house band for five years, and when he wasn’t playing live, he mixed sound for those who were—something he still does today. “I’ve been blessed,” he says. “I’m the hardestworking unknown in the business.” From 1996 to 2005, he toured the country with The Zen Tricksters and enjoyed modest success,
but what was once an acoustic duo (Black & Sparrow with guitarist John Sparrow) that recorded its first album in 1995 has since evolved into a fullon band project. After several years apart, the two longtime collaborators released a new album called Second Time Around this past February. “It’s really a lot of fun to hear these songs come to life with a band because we never really did that before,” says Black, who plays The Stephen Talkhouse once a month. He also loves touring, “but those things are hard to do these days.” Drawn to a life by the ocean, Black moved out to the Hamptons in 2005 but returned to the local music scene in 2009. “The Hamptons music community is pretty strong,” Black says. “Besides the fact that everybody is vying for gigs in the summertime, for the most part all the bands are really, really supportive of each other.” Klyph Black plays as part of the band The House Wreckers during Outrageous Open Mic Mondays at 10 PM at The Stephen Talkhouse, 161 Main St., Amagansett, 267-3117; stephentalkhouse.com.

Gene Casey, The Lone Sharks’ lead singer and guitarist.
THE PERFECT TWANG
Gene Casey is not unlike a lot of other musicians—he wakes up just before noon after a late night performing. GENE CASEY He often gets home around 3 AM, especially if his band, The Lone Sharks, played out in Montauk that night. “Three is good,” he quips. Casey lives on the North Fork, and as he’s quick to point out, the ferries stop running around 1 AM, so he has no choice but to drive all the way around Riverhead on his way back home. “That’s my life,” says Casey, who moved out to the Hamptons in
1988. “A cup of coffee, the music playing, and the windows open.” Some call Casey’s musical style rockabilly, though he says the term is confusing. Casey prefers a category he coined: rhythm and twang. In other words, vintage rhythm and blues with a rockabilly slant, but without the token post-Stray Cats look of tattoos, pompadours, and wallet chains. “The goal of my songs is to get that vintage vibe,” he says. The set list is 60 percent classic material and 40 percent originals. He originally put together The Lone Sharks with the intention of playing out in the Hamptons. Back then, it was a three-month stint during the
summer, but in recent years “the Hamptons kind of became this big playground.” In addition to The Stephen Talkhouse and other traditional music venues, Casey and other local artists on the scene now have taken to booking a smaller configuration of his band in an effort to perform at coffeehouses, art galleries, and local wineries, all of which have become popular hangouts for locals and vacationers on the weekends. “Music by nature is a communal experience,” Casey says. “Whatever the name of the band is, it’s all music.” Gene Casey and The Lone Sharks perform on July 23 at 7:30 PM at the Pridwin Hotel, 81 Shore Road, Shelter Island, 7490476; lonesharks.com.

Nancy Atlas at Bay Street Theater.
THE STELLAR SONGWRITER
Nancy Atlas has been at the center of the local Hamptons music scene since moving NANCY to Montauk in 2001. “I ATLAS absolutely, positively feed off the energy of the land and the raw beauty of that area,” says Atlas, a self-described country mouse who couldn’t be happier than when playing for a crowd. “I definitely get off on live performance and the sweaty naked bliss of performing live in front of a few hundred people.” The singer spent her childhood summers coming out to the area known as Lazy Point, where her parents owned a cottage—not a mansion, she
116
points out. Since then, the quaint little fishing community has become a summer paradise for hipsters, but Montauk remains “spectacularly beautiful,” Atlas says, which is what keeps her and her family in the Hamptons year-round. “As an artist and a person, it’s essential I get the quiet time and raw beauty of Montauk.” Best known for her raucous late-night sets on Friday nights at The Stephen Talkhouse, Atlas on her Facebook page describes her music as “original Americana rock with a touch of southern comfort.” Lately the singer-songwriter-turned-mother-of-three has been balancing her personal life and her career. She gave birth to her third child last August and is currently in production on her sixth album; she is also mixing a soon-to-be-released bootleg album of
live shows recorded over an eight-week run last winter at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor. As busy as she is now, Atlas was a “late bloomer” to music, having picked up the acoustic guitar at 21 after studying art overseas at Cambridge University. Five years of playing solo acoustic shows followed, and then Peter Honerkamp, owner of The Stephen Talkhouse, convinced her to put a band together and hired her to play Friday nights. “That’s how it all started,” Atlas says. She’s still known to rock on stage until 4 AM. “We’re still in love with them. There’s definitely a love affair between the two of us—our band and that bar.” Nancy Atlas performs on July 23 at 6 PM at The Surf Lodge, 183 Edgemere St., Montauk, 483-5037; nancyatlas.com.

THE STAR PRODUCER
Cynthia Daniels realized the Hamptons was ideal for working, not just relaxing. The twoCYNTHIA time Grammy-winning DANIELS recording engineer and producer, who has been enjoying the oceanside views here since 1988 and has lived here since 1998, says it became clear to her that she needed a studio similar to the ones she was accustomed to using in Manhattan. After buying the house, she began building makeshift studios, and slowly started bringing work out to the Hamptons from the city. “What
was missing out here was a really high-quality studio with beautiful aesthetics and acoustics,” Daniels says, “and someone with experience who could run it.” So she built a bigger house and hired world-famous studio designer John Storyk. In August of 2011, Daniels opened MonkMusic Studios. Almost immediately, celebrity clients such as Beyoncé, Alec Baldwin, Richard Gere, and Sarah Jessica Parker began scheduling sessions for recording projects. “Everyone likes the head they can be in when they come out to a place like the Hamptons and don’t have to fight the traffic back to Manhattan,” Daniels says. Even local artists like Nancy Atlas, Joe Delia, and Klyph
Black have sought out her services. Now, with her three-year-old studio, she can meet just about every music and post-production need other than recording a full orchestra. Daniels has also started MonkMusic Records and signed East End artists like Jewlee Trudden and her band In Circles, along with renowned electro-acoustic violinist Martha Mooke. “I’ve got an embarrassment of riches with regards to sources of inspiration between me living out here and having a thriving business,” she says. “There’s just nothing else a person could need.” MonkMusic Studios, 9 Mulford Ave., East Hampton, 917-921-2740; cynthiadaniels.net H

The floor-to-ceiling windows of the Dune Road Beach House makes you feel as if you’re lounging on the sand.
A
long drive to the Hamptons at this time of year may be tolerable. There’s a beach waiting at the end of it. But on a rainy day in November? To supervise a construction site? Not so much, says Dr. Louis Fiore, who wanted to build a summer getaway in Southampton but had no desire to trek back and forth in the off-season from his home in Newtown, Massachusetts, to make sure it was getting done right. So he went modular. His home was built in a factory, to exact specifications, in a couple of huge pieces. And the ranch-style house with cathedral ceilings took only nine months to deliver, instead of two years, as some custom jobs do, which meant two extra summers to use it. “If you’re not going to be able to be on-site to manage it,” Fiore says, “it’s worth it.” Because of the speed as well as factors like cost, energy efficiency, and strength, modular homes are gradually becoming an option for those seeking to create a residence from scratch on the East End, according to vendors, designers, and real estate brokers. Modulars are certainly not a major segment of the Hamptons housing market yet— they tend to be smaller and simpler than the type of weekend retreat the highest-end buyer craves. In other words, it may be a while before one turns up on Georgica Pond’s banks. But even among the masses, the structures have a PR challenge: They’re frequently confused with

manufactured homes or double-wide trailers. “I don’t think modulars are on most people’s radars,” says Krae Van Sickle, a broker with Saunders & Associates who’s been selling homes in the Hamptons since 1994. “But we’re seeing an open-mindedness to them we’ve never seen before.” What may be piquing interest is modulars’ relatively low cost, which even one-percenters who could splurge for a pricier property are finding appealing, brokers say. Without considering land value, modulars—which are generally prefabricated in Pennsylvania and Upstate New York, where labor is less expensive—can be up to 50 percent cheaper than comparable “stick” homes built a two-by-four at a time. Others, though, say that discount understates the cost of prepping a site with a foundation and water main, for instance, and the true savings is more in the range of 10 percent. “Building is becoming out of reach for a lot of people, unless maybe if you’re on Wall Street,” says Michael Hunn, who owns Hamptons Modular Homes. The company has existed since 1984 but recently changed its name from Future Surroundings Modular Homes in recognition of the emerging market. Hunn, whose first project in the Hamptons was a five-bedroom modular on an acre in Wainscott, says modulars are mushrooming in size. A decade ago, customers liked modest ranches, but his last five homes, he says, have measured more than 5,000 square feet, even if year-rounders still buy more of them than weekenders.

And far from humdrum boxes, modulars are also getting fancier. In the Southampton Shores area, Hunn recently installed a stucco-sided Mediterranean that had imported roof tiles, he says, while another one nearby eschewed vinyl siding for cedar shakes. As designs improve and construction techniques advance, it can be hard to pick out modulars on the landscape. Brokers who are marketing existing homes may also not reveal how they were constructed, which can make it difficult to get an accurate tally of what’s out there locally. Still, in the Northeast, modulars accounted for 5 percent of all homes built in 2012, or 2,000 dwellings, according to the trade group the National Association of Home Builders. And their share jumped to 7 percent in 2013, or 4,000 homes, with further gains expected.
T
he saturation in certain Hamptons communities is even greater, says Barry Altman, president of Custom Modular Homes of Long Island, a 30-yearold firm based in Southampton. In his town, he says, modulars make up about 15 percent of all the new houses going up today. And in a sign of a healthy market, many are being built as spec homes—houses that don’t have buyers lined up in advance—like an angular two-story Midcentury Modern near the water in Quogue, perched atop a stone
120
base and with a swimming pool. Two similar homes are planned in Westhampton, on Tanners Neck and Brushy Neck Lanes, says Altman, adding that all three will be completed next summer. Altman, who also builds conventional homes, is among the largest modular providers in the area. Modulars are 80 percent of his business, or about 20 of the 25 homes he’ll install in Suffolk County this year. “The logic is there, and the savings are there, and that’s why the business has grown,” he says. Eco-friendliness may also explain the appeal. Despite being built in outof-state factories and trucked to their sites, modulars, according to their advocates, yield less construction waste, since their assembly-line approach is so streamlined. The lumber also can’t be ruined by bad weather. In addition, modulars can be green from the get-go, unlike stick-built homes, which usually have to be reverse-engineered, according to Tyler Schmetterer, a cofounder of the eight-year-old New World Home, based in Southampton, which favors Early American home styles. In fact, the New York attorney who owned a 3,100-square-foot Colonial on Huntting Avenue in East Hampton didn’t receive a power bill for months because the home was so airtight and impervious to heat, the air conditioning barely came on, Schmetterer explains. On average, New World’s homes require 60 percent less energy than conventional homes, he adds. Modulars can resell well, too. A Greek Revival that New World developed on School Street in Bridgehampton recently sold for about $3 million,

or three times the purchase price of the lot, according to Schmetterer. “The owner did very well,” he says. In a region slammed by major storms like Hurricane Sandy in recent years, modulars also stand up well to the elements, says John Colucci, a vice president of Westchester Modular Homes of Wingdale, New York, the state’s largest manufacturer. After all, they have to be driven down the highway at 75 miles per hour, he says, and be hoisted by cranes; the homes also come with warranties. “It’s not a knock on stick-builders,” Colucci says. “They just don’t have to build them as strong as I do.” While modular homes may seem like the next big thing, the Hamptons has seen them before, thanks to architect Andrew Geller. Best known locally for his 1959 “double diamond” Pearlroth House in Westhampton Beach, Geller, working for Raymond Loewy & Associates, designed a U-shaped modular on Old Northwest Road in East Hampton that still stands today. Built in New Jersey, the sections of the home had to be narrow enough to squeeze through the tollbooths on the George Washington Bridge, says Jake Gorst, Geller’s grandson, who is working on a book about his grandfather. (Though many assume the Leisurama homes in Montauk were modulars, they had only some pre-cut sections and had to be assembled individually on-site, Gorst explains.) A child of the Depression, Geller “was thrilled with the idea that somebody could own a house—that you could essentially go into a showroom and say, ‘This is the house I want,’” Gorst says.
The company’s Wainscott House is a year-round playhouse for a family with four kids and a multitude of guests.
AS DESIGNS AND CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES IMPROVE, IT CAN BE HARD TO PICK OUT MODULARS ON THE LANDSCAPE. For all the upsides of modulars, stumbling blocks remain. Some criticize the lack of style variety, although at least one company, Resolution: 4 Architecture, based in New York and active in the Hamptons, offers Legolike forms, with squared-off roofs and wood and metal panels that contrast sharply with the shingles across the East End. “Most people come to us because they’re interested in a clean, open space,” says Joseph Tanney, a Resolution cofounder. In the Hamptons, the permitting process can also be onerous, though perhaps not much more so than for any new-construction home. But modulars may still have their work cut out for them to win over skeptics who equate mass production with inferiority, or who think anything prefab belongs in a trailer park, says Howard Kipnes, president of Cedar Knolls, the contractor who set up Dr. Louis Fiore’s house for Westchester Modular Homes. “It’s not so much that there’s a stigma anymore, but there’s a perception that curb appeal can be limited,” Kipnes says. “But without a doubt, we’re seeing growth.” H

eveloper and Saunders real estate broker Alan Schnurman remembers as if it were yesterday the first time he strolled around a 42-acre Sagaponack farm. “It took me 45 minutes just to walk the perimeter of the property,” he says. All he needed to do was convince his business partners that this land was a must-buy for development. “They all wanted to see the comps. I said, ‘You cannot comp 42 acres south of the highway in Sagaponack! It’s never existed before.’ ” Years later, Schnurman has built seven homes on that farmland between Hedges and Daniels Lanes, each with views of the ocean to the south and pristine, protected agricultural reserve land to the east. Now, the eighth and final one—a nine-bedroom home priced at $18.95 million—is just about completed and ready to hit the market. “The house is all about the vistas and the location,” says Schnurman. Nearly every room in this 11,340-square-foot masterpiece was designed to take advantage of the sweeping reserve views to the east, created by combining existing farmland with two-thirds of the original 42-acre purchase that were set aside to remain untouched forever.
Those views are on display throughout the open floor plan, with a kitchen, family, and living room that overlap to create an area where groups can mingle as part of an easy, natural flow that lends itself to large gatherings. “This house is an entertaining dream,” says Schnurman, who worked with the firm of Val Florio AIA Architect to design a space that was equally guest-friendly in the nonsummer months, highlighted by a lower level that includes a movie theater, billiards room, and glass-enclosed wine cellar. (An exercise fanatic, Schnurman also made sure the oversize downstairs gym was a true destination, complete with a patio that brings in natural light.) Still, the outdoor entertaining areas can’t help but steal the spotlight, including a sunken tennis court, an oversize 18-by-72-foot pool, and a pool house with full kitchen, pizza oven, and fireplace. But the real showstopper is the home’s one-of-a-kind roof deck. “It’s without parallel in Sagaponack,” Schnurman attests. “It’s truly remarkable. We created this large area where you have 360-degree views. You can see the ocean. You can see the protected reserve. You can see west for the sunset.” continued on page 128

“When it comes to market desirability, Sagaponack is leading the Hamptons.” —NANCY MIZRAHI
full-time residence in a renovated 18th-century home. Of his projects on tap, an oceanfront Sagaponack home tops the list, on a site where Martin will get to take advantage of the area’s legendary beaches and ocean views. “It’s really special,” says Martin, and another home on the market emphasizes that point. One of Schnurman’s Saunders colleagues, Nancy Mizrahi, is tasked with selling a $19.95 million home on behalf of a very special seller. “Billy Joel has renovated the home on a continuous basis since he purchased it in 2007,” Mizrahi explains, and that included creating an inverted floor plan that relocated all the common areas to the second floor to better maximize that Sagaponack light. “Having the living areas on the second floor maximizes the beach and long ocean views,” adds Mizrahi. “The views make this the nicest oceanfront property I have ever seen, and as soon as Billy purchased the home he recognized this potential.” Outfitted with interiors that combine classic Hamptons charm (exposed beams) with newer touches (an eclectic wall-dividing bookshelf), in addition to permits to install an oceanside pool on the acre-plus lot, the home represents a unique buying opportunity in one of the hottest spots on the East End. In an area of such high demand, homes rarely last long on the market. “When it comes to desirability, Sagaponack is leading the Hamptons,”
says Mizrahi. “Prices are increasing at the high end, and we are having multiple bids on many of our homes.” While it seems that would be enough to make Schnurman misty eyed about completing the final chapter of his 42-acre deal, the 35-year veteran knows not to get sentimental. “Real estate development is a creative process,” he explains. “I look back on anything I create with fond memories, then I go on to the next project. You learn to experience it.” Saunders, 2287 Montauk Hwy., Bridgehampton, 537-5454; 14 Main St., Southampton, 283-5050; hamptonsrealestate.com H
KEEPING THE PEACE Local architect Nick Martin, who is a member of Sagaponack’s Architectural and Historic Review Board, says his firm tries to preserve the essential look and character of the area by implementing environmentally sensitive techniques in its projects. Solar technology plays a large role in this, but so does the way other materials and the design of a property engage with it. Martin Architects does more than add solar panels and reuse original materials in existing constructions; Martin has been known to pick up and rotate a home to make better use of solar angles and increase energy efficiency. “It’s a matter of using natural materials and methods: location, sun shelf, placement of windows and doors,” he says. “[We are] able to figure out the best methods for the different solar angles to help aesthetically and also with heat and heat gain.” Martin Architects, 2913 Montauk Hwy., Sagaponack, 613-6555; martinarchitects.com

continued from page 127 Famous throughout the East End, those Sagaponack sunsets are ingrained as part of the village’s charm. “I love Sagaponack’s agricultural heritage and unique community, but number one is the light quality,” says Nick Martin, a local architect and member of the village’s Architectural and Historic Review Board. “There’s a special quality to it that’s a formulation of proximity to the ocean and the openness because of all the farm fields. The ocean and bay winds move so quickly and the light follows them. It’s almost like when you’re in the tropics and get a sudden rush of storms, then incredible sunshine.” Martin estimates his company, Martin Architects, has completed half a dozen projects in Sagaponack over the years, including his own

M LET THE ADVENTURE BEGIN
ost second-home buyers still want the traditional Hamptons experience on the East End. But, increasingly, others want the sleek, modern touches more reminiscent of a high-end stay at a tropical resort. “There’s a movement going on where the second home is like more of a vacation spot,” says Corcoran broker Matt Breitenbach. “You’re seeing new construction more like what you see in a five-star hotel in Miami or Turks & Caicos.” Even in homes with a traditional exterior, a certain amount of modern bells and whistles inside is expected. “It has to have an edge to it,” explains Breitenbach, who points to the popularity of sleek, narrow infinity pools and Savant home automation systems. “The technology revolution has hit a lot of homes out here. —MATT BREITENBACH People want the ability to take an iPad mini off the wall, hang out by the pool, and play their music.” As an example, Breitenbach points to a home he’s selling on Erica’s Lane in Sagaponack, with its two-story glass foyer and floating, glassencased wine cellar straight out of a South Beach penthouse. Out back, the old-fashioned cabana is gone, replaced by an indoor-outdoor space with a fully retractable screen that opens to reveal a double-sided fireplace with an outdoor kitchen on one side and a Jacuzzi on the other. “The Hamptons needs some of that instead of the same stereotypical gambrel traditionals,” says Breitenbach. ‘It’s very sexy and cool. I actually showed it last week to a big athlete, who loved it.” Welcome to the new Hamptons. Corcoran, 2405 Main St., Bridgehampton, 537-7773; corcoran.com H

Wrecking Ball SAUNDERS’S JAY FLAGG SAYS TODAY’S HIGH-END BUYER ISN’T SCARED TO KNOCK DOWN A HOUSE—NO MATTER HOW NEW IT IS.
THE HAMPTON CLASSIC HORSE SHOW AUGUST 24 - 31, 2014
T
he nearly 6,200-square-foot mansion was so nice that a former governor, New Jersey’s Jon Corzine, called it home. It sat on a piece of oceanfront property in Sagaponack so gorgeous that the buyer, a billionaire hedge funder, gladly dropped $43.5 million to own it—and knock it down. To replace the 11-year-old structure, he built a neo-Georgian home almost double the size and better suited to take in the sunset. Back in 2011, who knew this highly publicized bit of ostentatious wealth was the start of a trend? “On the high end, people are buying houses that are in extremely good condition and tearing them down,” says Jay Flagg of Saunders. “I never even saw that during the height of the last market.” Teardowns are nothing new on the East End, of course, but these —JAY FLAGG aren’t musty beach cottages. Instead, Flagg sees homes made of quality materials and built as recently as five years ago meet the wrecking ball—all at costs that rival (or surpass) buying vacant land and starting from scratch. Considering the current heights of the market, it is doubtful that such an investment can pay off in the long run. But at the highest reaches of the market, the numbers don’t necessarily have to add up. “They’re not looking for it to make economic sense,” adds Flagg. “It’s a whole different economy when you get into that very high echelon. They have the money and—price be damned—they’re going to get what they want.” Saunders, 14 Main St., Southampton, 283-5050; hamptonsrealestate.com H

love coming to the Hamptons because it means I get to work in private residences, which allows me to incorporate elements that are personal to my clients and their homes,” says world-renowned events designer Preston Bailey, whose glamorous clientele includes Oprah Winfrey, LeBron James, and the Trump family. His newest book, Preston Bailey: Designing with Flowers (Rizzoli; $45), features a breathtaking Southampton wedding he designed last July. The Manhattan-based designer is known for his largerthan-life arrangements, from flower-covered carousels to crystal palaces, which suit the East End’s romantic aesthetic. “As a wedding destination, what makes the Hamptons unique is that it has everything: breathtaking beaches, gardens, and vineyards as well as some of the best caterers and
rental companies I’ve ever worked with,” Bailey says. His Southampton clients wanted a ceremony that mirrored elements of their estate. “They asked that the décor center on a distinct shade of blue—that of the hydrangeas blooming in their garden at that time of year,” Bailey explains, “and they wanted their tented reception to have the same sensibility as the interior of their home.” This summer Bailey will spend a few weeks out East, as most of his clients have homes in the area. Despite his busy schedule, he always makes time to see friends and enjoy the summer. “My favorite thing to do in the Hamptons is house hopping,” he says. “Spending time out East always forces me to slow down.” Preston Bailey Entertainment & Set Design Inc., 147 W. 25th St., No. 11, NYC, 212-691-6777; prestonbailey.com H

FEW THINGS COMPARE TO THE MAGICAL LIGHT OF THE SETTING HAMPTONS SUN. BY DANIEL KRIEGER

When the weather is nice, we all cram into the cars and make our way to the beach about an hour before sunset. Everyone climbs up to the lifeguard tower, and we sit together watching the waves and the sun as it sinks behind the dunes. This image was photographed at Sagg Beach with my iPhone and posted to my Instagram (@danielkrieger). What caught my eye were the patterns of the fence and the way the light was barely catching small pieces of it. It was a great day in the Hamptons for us. H

or the past two years, my girlfriend and I have rented a house in Sagaponack for a week in June. It’s a great time to be out there as the weather is warm but the madness of summer hasn’t quite begun. Both years we’ve invited friends to stay for a night or two. Being a food photographer and with my girlfriend working as a food writer, we have many talented friends—we’re lucky to be treated to the same food and cocktails found in some of the best spots in New York City.
