BELOW & FACING PAGE: The elevated pool for the Compass Haus interplays with the home and extends the visible exterior space
beyond the setbacks. A roof terrace is accessed by an interior stair and provides a private outdoor area in close proximity to the water
views. The landscape was critical to this project. Several of the larger species were in place and nursed to health during construction,
while the rest of the landscape was intentionally set to lend scale and to soften the rigid forms of the architecture, all while ensuring
that views were not obstructed, but enhanced. Only Florida friendly, drought-tolerant plants were used and site permeability was
maximized.
