Underground House with Natural Background and the Pool Yard







Sagaponac House – a 4,500-sq.-ft. two-volume home nestled in an eastern Long Island community, designed by architect Richard Meier of New York-based architecture firm TsAO & McKOWN. Above the land line this house is a modern, minimalist cube; beneath it this elaborate swimming pool house is built right into the landscape. The upper white cube is a light-filled space balanced atop the lower volume, which is connected to the pool area. It consists only of simple lines and shapes but firmly rooting itself to the landscape and creating privacy by shaping the terrain. The private areas with amazing outdoor swimming pool are located the way nobody could see them from the street.
