Quogue -- Raich Residence

Object Details

General: This site took advantage of its seaside location in its landscape design and planting. The landscaping includes extensive use of beach grasses, pines, and native plants in a naturalized setting. Container gardening may be found in areas adjacent to the site's built structures. Architect Paul Rudolph created the original ideas and drawings for the house in 1969, but the actual construction greatly altered them and for many years it was generally believed that the project was never built. Nelva M. Weber was the landscape architect, with a design dating to about 1972 (see Weber Papers at Cornell University).
