AIA Peconic, the East End’s chapter of the American Institute of Architects, announced this month the winners of its 2017 Daniel J. Rowen Design Awards Program.

Design Awards Chair Bill Chaleff and AIA Peconic President Michele Hugo presented the nine awards during a ceremony on December 2 at the Ross School in East Hampton. The categories included Architecture, Historical Preservation, Adaptive Reuse, and Unbuilt Projects.

Bates Masi + Architects gleaned the most awards, winning an Honor Award and two Merit Awards in Architecture. The Honor Award went to the firm’s own North Main Street office in East Hampton. The Merit Awards were for Georgica Cove in East Hampton and Atlantic in Amagansett, both residences that previously won Archi Awards from AIA Long Island.

Blaze Makoid Architecture in Bridgehampton won an Honor Award for Architecture, for its Old Orchard residence in East Hampton, a complete redo of a 10,000-square-foot modern spec house, with the addition of a “tube” bisecting the main structure, and a new pool house and glass bridges. It was also an Archi winner.

Blaze Makoid took home a second award as well: a Juror Award for Adaptive Reuse, for a Huntting Lane project in East Hampton. The project called for reusing an abandoned foundation between a new house and a pool area on a 1-acre site that was originally part of a much larger circa 1903 estate.

Austin Patterson Disston Architects in Quogue won a Merit Award for Historical Preservation. The winning project, Mid-Century Modern Revived, is set on the tallest dune in Quogue. It was a restoration of a 1960s modern house, originally designed by architect Abraham Geller, that had fallen into disrepair, according to the firm.

Roger Ferris + Partners in Bridgehampton received a Juror Award for Architecture for a project in Wainscott simply titled Guest House, which previously won an Archi. According to the firm, it was designed—with two simple gable-shaped volumes of glass shrouded in horizontal wood slats—as a luxury reprieve for visitors to an adjacent traditional estate.

Oza/Sabbeth Architecture of Bridgehampton won a Juror Award for Adaptive Reuse for Black House in Wainscott. Taking a post-war era ranch, Oza/Sabbeth worked with what was there to retain the location—which could not have been rebuilt on had the firm demolished the original and rebuilt.

Stelle Lomont Rouhani Architects of Bridgehampton’s House on the Point in Water Mill earned the Juror Award for Architecture. An Archi winner, the modestly sized oceanfront house was designed for an informal, active family, according to the firm. The transparent first floor offers both ocean and bay views, and the second floor prioritizes indoor-outdoor living, including a hot tub placed to enjoy bayfront sunsets.

The jurors, who reviewed 30 submissions, were Stephen P-D Chu from Ennead Architects, William Randy McGee from ZGF Architects and Earl Jackson from Earl Jackson Architecture Workshop.
