BIRD KEY RESIDENCE
Sarasota, FL, United States
Located on Bird Key, this house has a strong horizontal organization to reflect the sweeping view of the Sarasota mainland across the bay as well as the Gulf of Mexico. Floating one level above grade, this two-story structure is a carefully articulated rectangle that provides order and logic in its organization but drama and mystery in its spatial experiences.
Glimpses of the bay are provided as you arrive into a two-story entry that links the garage to the house. Contact with the ground plane is maintained as you move up into the house and then continues internally with the interior stair floating above a glass floor overlooking the reflecting pool below. This 4,800 SF home has the major living spaces and master bedroom on the main level and guest bedrooms and owner’s study on the upper level. All spaces are extended out onto a series of large covered terraces overlooking the bay.
The siting of this house and its relationship to the ground plane, courtyard, pool and other exterior spaces all reflect the owner’s desire for privacy while still taking advantage of the magnificent views. In lieu of window treatments, combinations of clear and translucent glass are used to provide both privacy and views.
