Nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and an active agricultural tract, the Gibson Lane Residence embodies the historical characteristics of Sagaponack. Choosing to develop a connection with the native fescue meadow that lies to the north of the parcel, the site design is oriented away from the ocean and, instead, focuses on a flowing native fescue meadow. Natural sandstone terraces and raised pool edge that reflect the clean lines of the architecture, disappear into drifts of fescue meadow, blurring the edges of the property and creating a connection to a ‘borrowed landscape’ beyond.
