House with Flood Protection on Long Island15 photos

This modern ocean-view house on Long Island, USA is not only interesting from an architectural standpoint but also practical — flood protection was planned for this location, where floods occasionally occur. The building is elevated above ground level, and screens on the lower level allow water to flow under living areas. The facade is also worth attention, resembling a children's construction set and seemingly made of glass and wood-sided cubes. The buildings are connected by glass corridors, through which the garden and backyard can be seen. The theme of geometry continues in the interior: lines, cubes, rectangles, and circular forms are the main design tool. These elements transform the interior just as effectively as various decorations. A notable project with impressive architecture!
