Located on a Florida barrier island with over 200 feet of beach frontage, the residence is elevated to respond to state flood requirements, with the main living level positioned 18 feet above grade. The entry sequence engages visitors with a grand staircase flanked by water features, while a glass-enclosed circular stair and central elevator provide vertical circulation to all three levels. Ground-level spaces are reserved for storage and mechanical functions due to dune and flood constraints.
To maximize beach views from every space, the home is organized primarily one room wide, with three interlocking wings connected by a continuous grand hallway running parallel to the shore. A two-story living and dining space anchors the center, flanked by more private areas on either end. Material selections are restrained and coastal in character, including stucco, wood cladding, expansive glass walls, and wood louvers that provide both privacy and sun protection.
