A Contemporary Pool House In The Hamptons

May 19, 2015

ICRAVE was asked by a home owner in Amagansett, New York, to transform the outdoor area at his house into a contemporary pool and spa retreat, ideal for entertaining in the hot summer months.

About the project

A wood and steel structure creates a modern indoor outdoor oasis featuring three open, yet defined living areas. On either side are two enclosed cedar shingled boxes, one a bedroom and one a spa, with a connected roof stretching over the central entertainment area.

The structure is scaled proportionately to the length of the rectangular pool, with a beach entrance and deep lap lane, highlighting it as the main focal point for the outdoor space.

Airy white curtains surround the bedroom, offering privacy while continuing to blur the line between indoors and outdoors. The room itself contains splashes of color throughout, including a large beach scene mural, vibrant blue pillows, and large brass Moroccan pendant light fixtures hanging from the ceiling.

In the center lies a sunken mezzanine, creating a romantic lounge outfitted with a dark steel fireplace, outdoor grill, and large, intricately carved wooden daybed and ottoman.

The spa room, located to the right of the mezzanine, offers the owner and his guests a pristine wellness and relaxation center. The Jacuzzi Sasha made by Purificare and designed by Alberto Apostoli features three pre-designed modules in a maple wood palette, including a sauna, shower, and hammam option.
