River Road House
Sewall's Point, FL, United States
Main residence, Guest house, swimming pool, dock.This house is a complex
composition, reminiscent of the canvases of Georges Braque, in which
geometric forms appear and disappear in a constant dance of illusion and
materiality. The house comprises a series of distinct, yet interlocking
rectilinear volumes conjoined by a transparent longitudinal axis.
Positive volumes are balanced atop negative creating a heightened
tension and intrigue. A glass-skinned throughway connects and
distinguishes the two dominant volumes, or towers, capturing light and
adding to the sense of interior capaciousness. Exterior glass,
limestone, stucco and mahogany outline, augment and anchor what
otherwise might be a cacophony of
disparate forms.
Whether allegro, andante or largo, the varied rhythms of the internal
structure are adroitly composed. Denizens move with leisure or
efficiency, depending on need and mood. Interior spaces are carefully
orchestrated to conceal and reveal dramatic views to the water. Surprise
and delight are amplified by skillful interior and exterior framing. In
the same way, the arrangement of program and use moves inhabitants
through a logical gradient from public to private space, from activity
to slumber, from conviviality to introspection. At either end of the
longitudinal axis that connects the two domestic partitions, separate
stairways enhance circulation and provide discrete access to the
three-storied parapets.
