Project Stats

Year: 2022

Area: 1,800 SF 

GC: Cornerstone of Florida, Inc

Project Role: Architect + Project Manager

Architect from concept to construction administrations

Scope: Full Interior Renovation

Concept:

A consulting wizard and a non-profit doctor recently acquired an apartment in a 1970s 'Tropical Brutalist  apartment building  on the barrier island of Key Biscayne,  “Island Paradise”.

This very active couple wanted to create a part-time refuge that fits their current and future needs for quiet introspection and occasional entertainment/visits.

We decided to open up the plan to allow for flexibility in use and be able to enjoy the views of the ocean and the bay from all spaces.

The project palette is neutral with warm whites and grays in order to allow for the their colorful art and wood furniture to pop.
