House in Florida

Located on the inner coast of Palm Beach, this single-family residence was designed with an eye toward casual luxury and modern simplicity. The layout maximizes flexibility and opportunities for indoor/outdoor living. Strategic landscaping enhances street-front privacy, shielding the front of the house from view, while the rear of the house opens up to the backyard, highlighting the pool and the waterway beyond.  A kitchen, dining room, living room are situated in the center of the plan and open to one another, while bedroom suites in the corners are sequestered from these social spaces. Throughout the interiors, wooden elements add a sense of warmth to the white stucco walls.
