This home on Sarasota Bay was designed to maximize natural daylighting, embrace aging in place, and living on the water. The challenge was to accommodate a couple with two growing children and address how they would live in the home today, 5, 15, and 25 years from now. The house was designed to take advantage of the water views on two sides of the property, providing a crucial connection to nature. To embrace the views, the house is designed to “float” over the ground plane.
Designed for aging in place, the home features wide entry doors, flush showers, easy-to-rotate handles, and accessible countertop heights. An elevator furthers these goals while a hand-crafted three-level staircase celebrates the journey from ground level to the uppermost floor.
The Owner and the Architect discussed “building the house of the future today” and a large part of this goal was to create a home that reduced dependency on the power grid and focus on nature. Addressing resiliency, the home was designed beyond code requirements for a VE floodzone, designated for coastal areas at the highest risk. As such, the home is over-elevated to protect from storm surges and flooding. Safety zones and impact resistant glazing are fortified. More than just a house, this residence looks to the future—where thoughtful design, sustainability, and resiliency are everyday priorities.
