Sands Point Residence is a stylish home located in Long Island, New York, USA.This dream home was designed by Narofsky Architecture.
Sands Point Residence by Narofsky Architecture:
“The
residence started out as an idea to accommodate 3 generations of the
same family. So it took its form, that the private spaces surrounded a
great public space, which is the 2 story central living, dining, entry
and lounge space, a sort of indoor court yard. With its larges glazed
areas this space as others in this home feel very attached to the
outdoors. There is great continuity from indoor to outdoor also
reinforced by using the same materials inside and out.
The
house is slated to receive a LEED for homes Silver as we incorporated
many sustainable systems, such as: geothermal heating and cooling (
fossil fuel is only used for cooking); LED lighting; water reclaim;
super insulation ( the entire house is foamed); steel frame ( no wood
was used); no maintenance materials like the slimtech and zinc; radiant
heat throughout.
Other
elements in the house are an indoor /outdoor pool area, with
retractable doors for use in the warm weather seasons; an indoor
squash/multi court; gold simulator/theater room; two kitchens ( one is
for cooking indian food and isolate the spice odors); 7 full bedroom
suites; billiard room, and family room and a 5 car garage.
The
house is mostly clad in a unique material, which is a 3mm (0.12in)
porcelain panel. Slimtech, manufactured by Lea Ceramiche in Italy. These
panels some as large as 1m x 3m (3.28ft x 9.84ft) are mounted rain
screen fashion ( ventilated facade), on vertical insulated furring
strips. The entry and the surfaces surrounding the main courtyard are
clad in Zinc. All the roofs are green and are all accessible as usable
as outdoor terraces
