NORTH FORK FARMHOUSE
Cutchogue, NY
The iconic North Fork Farmhouse is a signature project that embodies our passion for blending historical charm with sustainable, evolving landscapes. The design seamlessly marries classic formal gardens with a wild, naturalistic planting palette, creating a dynamic outdoor experience that shifts with the seasons. At its heart, a luxurious pool garden with an integrated hot tub offers a serene escape, while a thoughtfully designed vegetable garden and potting bench encourage hands-on engagement with the land. An inviting outdoor BBQ area, complete with a mini herb garden, fosters connection through cooking and gathering. Adding a deep sense of place, an antique lanolin rendering kettle—original to the former sheep farm that once occupied the property—now serves as the striking centerpiece of the gravel garden. Every element of this landscape is crafted to enhance the relationship between people and place, proving that beauty and sustainability can coexist in perfect harmony.
