300 Woodcrest
300 Woodcrest is a strategically elevated home for a new family looking to live in an established, family-friendly, but flood-prone neighborhood in South Florida.
Located in a flood zone, the first challenge was to elevate the first level 4 ft from the street elevation, Not enough to have a full ground level, but still high to be challenging.
Within the tight lot, we also had additional outdoor activities requirements, such as a pool and outdoor kitchen with dining space.
Therefore we design the house around a central staircase with half-height levels accessible from each of the stair's landing.
This allowed that one side - the half-level side - to elevate the ceiling from four to eight feet, sufficient space for a carport and the outdoor kitchen.
Results:
- The use of half heights allowed the project to maximize the lot area and include space for outdoor activities that otherwise wouldn't be allowed.
- A modern, contemporary-look facade with a central breezeway to connect the different levels with plenty of balconies and planter spaces.
- The family was happy they could get most if not all their requirements to live in their dream neighborhood without sacrificing outdoor area or having to wait for a larger lot to accommodate their wants.
