The Home Is Classic Hamptons. Its $1.5 Million Pink Pool House Is Anything But.
In the middle of a manicured grassy lawn, juxtaposed against a classic shingle-style house in Sagaponack, a village in New York's Southampton, stands a sleek, cantilevered pink pool house that blurs the line between art and design. Completed in 2024, the structure is the latest—and perhaps most personal—collaboration between architect Roger Ferris and longtime client Frank Gallipoli.
Designed to accompany the 75-foot Corian-clad lap pool, the adjacent pool house came about over time. The above-ground pool itself—installed in 2012 for $350,000—was an ambitious project that turned a pool into a sculptural object. 'We decided collectively it would be interesting to reflect the sky with a light pink trough that happens to be a lap pool,' said Ferris about the form—and the color choice of the Corian in Strawberry Ice.
