Large concrete slab floor tiles in
the gathering areas at the unit's
east and west ends reflect light
onto the plaster ceilings above
while providing a cool surface
underfoot. A hierarchical
arrangement of assemblies is
established as the structural
concrete deck extends beyond
the glass window wall before
transitioning into a plaster
ceiling. e concrete columns
are deliberately left unfinished,
offering additional context to
the nature of the intervention
and the layers comprising the
larger building structure.
Sheer curtains capture the
coastal breezes, and vibrant
textiles, woven baskets, and
patterned floor coverings add
a touch of softness. Amidst
the neutral backdrop, various
shades of blue, orange,
and red pay homage to the
native flora and fauna of
southern Florida. Designed
to be welcoming to guests
and resilient to the sandy
feet of children, this home
reflects its surroundings'
tones, textures, and tropical
climate, while the meticulous
craftsmanship and attention
to detail evoke a sense of
permanence not commonly
found in South Beach.
