Andrew Franz updates 1960s home on New York’s Fire Island
A new guesthouse and swimming pool are among the updates to a 56-year-old home on Fire Island that has been overhauled by American studio Andrew Franz Architect.
Called Fire Island House, the residence is tucked into a wooded site near the beach. The home takes its name from its location – Fire Island, a barrier island in the Atlantic Ocean that is a popular getaway spot for New Yorkers.

The project entailed the renovation and expansion of a two-storey, cedar-clad house that was designed by Florida-born architect Horace Gifford, who created dozens of beach cottages on the island. The house dates to 1965.

In the third of a trio of spring lookbooks this Easter weekend, we ve rounded up ten verdant rooftop gardens including a penthouse garden in Australia and a stepped vegetable garden in Vietnam.
The luxurious garden of this penthouse in Darlinghurst, Sydney, is made up of raised beds filled with indigenous plant, tree and shrub species.
Designed by landscape architect Matt Dillion, the plants were carefully selected to suit harsh rooftop conditions. The garden surrounds a pavilion-inspired penthouse with large windows.
This Mexico City rooftop garden was created as a getaway within a crowded neighbourhood in the bustling city.
