Twin Gables

Named Twin Gables, the residence echoes forms traditionally seen in rural settings, but a creative and varied use of Abodo timber claddings, roofing, trellis and slats provides a new angle on the classic barn style.

With over 8000 square feet of Abodo timber, Twin Gables exemplifies the product’s versatility. While Abodo Vulcan is used in a tongue and groove format for the exterior cladding and roofing, it also extends to slats overlaid on the timber-clad gable, creating rusticated texture, and to trellised sun shading over the patio by the pool.

With its soft, driftwood hue, the Sioo:x coating helps the building to assimilate with the Hamptons aesthetic, but Abodo was also an apt choice for practical reasons. Being by the sea, the cladding is likely to encounter some extreme weather - and as a thermally modified timber product, Abodo Vulcan is durable and hardy in all climates and won’t warp or bend when exposed to excessive heat.

Designed by local architecture firm The Up Studio, the home is designed to maximise views and to be bathed in natural light, with close connections to
the surrounding landscape and beaches. Rooftop terraces on both sides of the central living space provide private and elevated lookouts over the orchards
and sea.
