SHOU SUGI BAN HOUSE

Shou Sugi Ban House

 
Set on three woodland acres bordering the Parrish Art Museum in the pastoral hamlet of Water Mill, NY, Shou Sugi Ban House is an understated but luxe holistic healing retreat that embodies Japanese culture and Wabi Sabi principles, with respect for the natural world and its healing properties.

The grounds, which comprise a pebbled courtyard and a three-acre garden, were designed by Kwong in partnership with Topiaris of Lisbon, Portugal and are intended to form an important element of the upscale retreat. Winding pathways, reflective pools, fountains, and a landscape inspired by the local dunescape and Japanese gardens allow guests to connect with the natural world around them.
