EAST HAMPTON CHICKEN COOP

East Hampton, NY

Only in East Hampton would the chickens get a place like this. Designed with a light hand and a sense of humor, this coop riffs on classical forms with its floating roof and Latin inscriptions, all scaled down for its feathered residents. Made from reclaimed wood and patterned shingles, it’s practical, but also a small architectural folly tucked into the landscape. Call it what you will—a chicken basilica, a farmyard pavilion—but the chickens don’t care; they just get to live in the best house on the property.
