Rye, New York occupies a distinctive position in the Westchester residential landscape: a city with genuine waterfront access on Long Island Sound, a walkable downtown, and a housing stock that combines historic character with significant ongoing investment. YZDA, led by principal designer Satomi Yoshida-Katz, brings to Rye a design approach that is responsive to this particular combination of qualities — the informal ease that comes with proximity to the water and the architectural seriousness that the community's best homes demand. The studio's process begins, as always, with a thorough discovery phase: understanding how a family uses their home across seasons, what materials they are drawn to, and what the architecture of the house itself is asking for. YZDA serves clients across Westchester County and has earned thirteen consecutive years of Best of Houzz Design and Service recognition.

Designing in Rye
Rye's residential neighborhoods reflect the city's layered history: Federal and Greek Revival homes near the original downtown core, substantial Colonial and Tudor Revival properties on the larger lots of the Milton and Osborn neighborhoods, and a number of more recent luxury builds that take advantage of waterfront or near-water positions on Milton Harbor and along the Sound shore. Designing in Rye means working with a range of architectural scales and periods, often within blocks of one another, and finding material and color languages that are appropriate to each home's particular character and setting.
