SeaThru is a new, waterfront, modern home. SeaThru was inspired by the mid-century modern homes from our area, known as the Sarasota School of Architecture. This homes designed to offer more than the standard, ubiquitous rear-yard waterfront outdoor space. A central courtyard offer the residents a respite from the heat that accompanies west sun, and creates a gorgeous intermediate view fro guest staying in the semi-attached guest suite, who can actually SEE THROUGH the main living space and enjoy the bay views. Noble materials such as stone cladding, oak floors, composite wood louver screens and generous amounts of glass lend to a relaxed, warm-contemporary feeling not typically common to these types of homes.

This spacious, covered patio is the perfect retreat for enjoying the outdoors with all the comforts of an indoor setting. The neutral color palette of the sandstone paver patio, and natural wood tones of the tongue & groove ceilings and privacy screen are in keeping with the modern aesthetic our homeowners desired. Whether you are dining alfresco in the outdoor dining room or gathering around the beautiful modern limestone fireplace with mounted TV to watch your favorite team, this versatile space is a harmonious blend of natural beauty, functionality, and modern design.

It was pretty much a blank area but with some elevation issues. The seating wall served 2 purposes as a seating space but also to retain some of the patio. Natural fieldstone steppers lead from the driveway area to the patio. An assortment of perennials and plantings soften the hardscape project. Serviceberry, hybrid dogwood, and a large dwarf pine are the anchor plants. We also created a raised vegetable garden space off the patio too. Marc Depoto (Hillside Nurseries Inc.)

The room was to narrow to photograph in its entirety so I made three images across the top and three images across the bottom of the scene and stitched these together in Autopano Giga. Copyright Carl Mayfield Photography
