The vision for this 4,800-square-foot Longboat Key, Florida, residence was that of a minimalist structure, built beyond
the code in terms of systems and performance. Sitting on a peninsula, the LEED Platinum Certified home is closely
bounded by waterfront setback lines and elevated one story to meet flood regulations. The design intent was to
reconnect the elevated house to the exterior and take advantage of the waterfront views.
The kitchen sits as the centerpiece of the home and the open plan is designed to connect the kitchen to the entry, living,
and dining areas while capturing views of the pool and Sarasota Bay beyond. The elevated pool interplays with the house
and extends the visible exterior space. 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.
