Breezy Point beach house by BAAO Studio

A newly published New York coastal residence with a clear editorial hook: BAAO uses nested domestic forms, offset gabled massing and strategic cuts to introduce daylight within the constrained fabric of Breezy Point’s beachfront cooperative. Its combination of formal experimentation and dense coastal context merits timely human review.

About this story

Dezeen reports that Brooklyn-based BAAO Studio designed a 2,655-square-foot (247-square-metre) beach residence in Breezy Point, a beachfront cooperative at the western end of Queens’ Rockaway Peninsula. The house is organized within an offset gabled volume whose indents and slices bring natural light into the interior. The publisher characterizes its principal spatial device as a “house within a house.” No corresponding project page or press release was located in BAAO’s current official portfolio, so the official project name, detailed room organization, material specifications and complete consultant team remain unconfirmed.

Status and timeline

Completed residence published by Dezeen on September 12, 2026. Design, construction and completion dates were not independently verified.

Design highlights

A nested “house within a house” concept; offset gabled massing; recesses and sliced openings that draw daylight into the plan; contemporary residential design within the closely spaced fabric of a private beachfront cooperative.
