The House That Greg Built
“The architectural firm of Greg Andrea and Richard Baker designs wondrous spaces for living, working, dreaming and being that bring practicality, aesthetics and environment to a harmonious resolution, regardless of budget.”
The House That Greg Built
“The separate buildings are composed around view, pool and courtyard, like your own small village – with your own special sunset,” says Andrea.
The House That Greg Built
“Each corner turned finds surprises like grottos, towers, and delicate wire bridges, all of which intertwine the sprawling spaces to create an entity that is whole and coherent, yet separated enough so that you can enjoy your family and guests while finishing that last great Pulitzer Prize-winning scene or the first movement of your very first symphony.

New Millenium Living
“The different elements create a village-like atmosphere that’s centered around the pool. The house is woven into the environment. Every window in the house was strategically located so that you would have water views” - Gregory Andrea
New Millenium Living
“When you’re in my house, you’re in a theater of architecture. My architecture is not about a rectangular box, it’s about creating space.” - Gregory Andrea
Architect Andrea delivers a sense of history to the North Shore
“Emotion he stresses is an important element of his work and he loves creating feelings of brilliance, mystery and wonder. To Andrea, this is true escapism, something as necessary as the elemental functions of a home.”
House Bountiful
“Call it new tradition. Tradition with a personal touch. A house that doesn’t scream how big it is but unfolds with more than ample space for a family with kids, dogs, antiques and all the modern creature comforts.”

LI Architect Lets Redone Restaurant Spook For Itself

Setting the Stage for Outdoor Living - NYT
“These sheltered areas can range from the very elegantly furnished and draped pavilion created by architect Gregory S. Andrea, A.l.A. and Locust Valley designer Jeff Lincoln for last summer's Southampton showcase, to rustic, open-sided gazebos which attractively provide a recpice from the sun.”
