Not quite ready to jump both feet into the closed floor plan trend? The large archways in the featured home this week are a great way to dip your toes into the idea! By adding these large archways, we created the feel of a separate space without sacrificing light or the flow of the floor plan. #luxuryhomes #luxurylifestyle #luxuriouslifestyle #dreamhome #luxurydesign #darkdecor #moderndesign

Warmth, ease and an uplifting sense of unlimited possibility course through the heart of this award-winning sunroom. Artful furniture selections, whose curvilinear lines gracefully juxtapose the strong geometric lines of trusses and beams, reflect a measured study of shapes and materials that intermingle impeccably amidst the neutral color palette brushed with celebrations of coral, master millwork and luxurious appointments with an eye to comfort such as radiant-heated slate flooring and gorgeously reclaimed wood. Combining English, Spanish and fresh modern elements, this sunroom offers captivating views and easy access to the outside dining area, serving both form and function with inspiring gusto. To top it all off, a double-height ceiling with recessed LED lighting, which seems at times to be the only thing tethering this airy expression of beauty and elegance from lifting directly into the sky.

From our first meeting with the client, the process focused on a design that was inspired by the Asian Garden Theory. The home is sited to overlook a tranquil saltwater lagoon to the south, which uses barrowed landscaping as a powerful element of design to draw you through the house. Visitors enter through a path of stones floating upon a reflecting pool that extends to the home’s foundations. The centralized entertaining area is flanked by family spaces to the east and private spaces to the west. Large spaces for social gathering are linked with intimate niches of reflection and retreat to create a home that is both spacious yet intimate. Transparent window walls provide expansive views of the garden spaces to create a sense of connectivity between the home and nature. This Asian contemporary home also contains the latest in green technology and design. Photovoltaic panels, LED lighting, VRF Air Conditioning, and a high-performance building envelope reduce the energy consumption. Strategically located loggias and garden elements provide additional protection from the direct heat of the South Florida sun, bringing natural diffused light to the interior and helping to reduce reliance on electric lighting and air conditioning. Low VOC substances and responsibly, locally, and sustainably sourced materials were also selected for both interior and exterior finishes. One of the challenging aspects of this home’s design was to make it appear as if it were floating on one continuous body of water. The reflecting pools and ponds located at the perimeter of the house were designed to be integrated into the foundation of the house. The result is a sanctuary from the hectic lifestyle of South Florida into a reflective and tranquil retreat within. Photography by Sargent Architectual Photography
