OUR TEAM

Peter Sabbeth

Peter was a fine art painter in the mid 90’s when he first started designing and building luxury loft spaces in Brooklyn’s DUMBO neighborhood. Lofts transitioned to East End homes when the allure of the ocean beckoned. Merging his fine art sensibility with a non- traditional approach to home design, Peter became enamored with space creation and manipulation as a medium.

Modern Green Home was born. Since then, Peter and Modern Green Home have helped transform the “traditional” Hamptons building industry with dozens of projects including the 2008 Hamptons Cottages & Gardens Idea House. From an early age, Peter was submerged in construction materials through his family’s distribution business. This exposure fostered sensitivity towards incorporating sustainable materials into his designs as visits to factories and wood mills exposed him to the tremendous environmental impact of materials manufacturing.

Peter is a graduate of Tufts University, an 9-year member of the US Green Building Council, a contributing writer to the Southampton Press, a Skateboard Designer, Trans Oceanic sailor, and father of two boys. He lives in Sag Harbor.
