For The Corduroy, we grounded the design in a narrative that reflects Montauk’s spirit at its most authentic. The existing buildings were architecturally raw, simple roadside motel structures weathered by salt air and sun. We enlivened with each space with color, pattern, and personality. We imagined the inhabitants will be surfers, creatives, and free spirits alike that were drawn to Montauk for its waves, its bohemian spirit, and its sense of freedom.
