Blaze Makoid Architecture scored four awards at the AIA Long Island Chapter’s annual Archi Awards—including the Excellence in Architecture Award for a residential project over $3 million, for an oceanfront home in Sagaponack.
Inspired by Norman Jaffe’s nearby Perlbinder House and Tod Williams’s Tarl “Wall House,” the home on Daniels Lane was one of the first in the village to have to meet both flood elevation requirements and height limits and at the same time be set back from the coastal erosion hazard line.
The Bridgehampton-based architectural company also won a commendation for outstanding achievement in the unbuilt category for projects at Bull Path in East Hampton and Fowler Street in Water Mill. Another project, at Mashomuck in North Haven, won a commendation for outstanding achievement in the residential $1 million to $3 million category.
The awards ceremony was held last Thursday, October 15, in Manhasset.
