Located just south of downtown in a developing neighborhood, this new home was inspired by the mid-century architecture for which Sarasota is known. The homeowners – avid architecture enthusiasts – selected the design team for its ability to deliver a project that emphasizes how they live and that seamlessly melds architecture with its environment. The team collaborated on a singular design, modern in its aesthetic as well as its integration of the inside with the exterior environment. The overarching goal was to employ the tenets of modernism – clean horizontal lines, a minimal material palette and precise details – to create a harmonious and tactile experience from the ground up. The layering of architecture and landscape in this suburban site facilitates the owners' lifestyle as active residents of their neighborhood and community, while maintaining a sense of privacy and quite in their vibrant landscape.
