Very nice home. Love the bathtub. What are the things on the downhill side of the roof that look like white triangles about 45 seconds in to the video?

Wonderful concept and design. Just watching the video one can feel the calming effect they are creating within the home. Having been to Shelter Island, I'll add that it is the perfect setting for this house concept, it's a fantastic place.

Nice, overall, but a bit too cold and sterile for my taste.

I would love to live in that environment for about a week to see how my husband and I would enjoy it.

This home reflects the calm I sensed within the architects as they spoke. What an exquisite retreat they've created... a beautiful, cohesive space in a very wonderful place. Thank you for sharing it with us.
