In West Islip, New York, a large waterfront terrace with expansive views of the Great South Bay is framed by a natural aluminum wire railing system. Deck-mounted aluminum posts provide a clean, low-profile foundation, while a rich Ipe wood top rail adds warmth and visual contrast. Running seamlessly between each post, a sleek aluminum post-to-post support rail enhances both the structure’s strength and modern aesthetic. Tensioned stainless steel cables stretch horizontally, preserving the open sightlines to the bay and allowing sunlight and sea breeze to flow freely through the space. Natural hardwood, marine-grade metals, and a simple design embrace the easygoing, breezy vibe of Long Island's South Shore while balancing the house's architecture.
