I’m riding shotgun in a surprisingly roomy helicopter cockpit with Vincent Laforet, one of the foremost practitioners of DSLR video, over New York City. I’ve never ridden in a helicopter. The asphalt below fades from black to grey.

The Sagaponac House is a 4,500 square foot house at an east Long Island community, Wainscott, NY is master-planned by Richard Meier. It consists only of simple lines and shapes but firmly rooting itself to the landscape and creating privacy by shaping the terrain.
Even though the site was nearly flat before the construction, architects has managed to establish the first level slightly below grade and sculpt the surrounding terrain into a gentle rise. That allowed the visible volume to be reduced and gave place for creating indoor/outdoor spaces that are very open to their surroundings.
