Miami, for centuries since its discovery by early explorers, has lured new residents to its shores with the promise paradise in the Tropics. Located on the South Bank of the Miami River, and following the traditions of Tropical Living, this home designed by KI Architecture and Armando Montero R.A. LEED AP, incorporates design ideas that promote healthy living and mitigate Climate Change and Sea Level Rise threats in one of the most vulnerable areas in the Country. Miami and South Florida are often at the center of the Hurricane Track Forecast Cone and seasonal King Tides often flood streets.
The resilient design ensures that disruptions due to natural disasters are minimized. The house structure and adjacent outdoor areas are raised above potential and future flood levels. The structure is hardened and protects the home from wind damage, and is capable of withstanding 180+ mph winds, and the home is designs to function off the grid using photovoltaic energy and other green strategies. Other incorporated sustainable strategies include capturing and re-using rainwater, treating sewage on site and reclaiming grey water to irrigate rooftop gardens and landscape, Roof tops not used for PV panels serve as green roofs and recreational decks that allow home vegetable farming even during flooded conditions.
The house is also designed to maximize the well-being of the occupants by increasing the quality of air, water, natural lighting, and materials to create an environment that promotes physical and mental health.

This luxurious walk-in wine cellar on California's central coast is fully climate-controlled, and features a floor-to-ceiling WineHive Pro racking system. Safely holding standard 750mL wine bottles and magnum 1.5L bottles in the left column, this WineHive installation is a custom 10" depth and was left not anodized, as the owner wanted a "raw industrial" feel. It perfectly fills the wood enclosure and seamlessly contours around the AC unit. Notice the honeycomb floor tiles!

This 4-person hot tub is handcrafted from thick, solid Western Red Cedar, creating a strong and durable structure designed for long-term outdoor use in all climates.
The solid cedar walls provide excellent structural strength and natural insulation, helping the tub perform reliably in both hot summer conditions and freezing winter temperatures. Western Red Cedar handles temperature changes and moisture exceptionally well, remaining stable where many common wood species would warp or deteriorate over time.
This hot tub is equipped with integrated massage jets that provide gentle hydrotherapy while maintaining the quiet and natural soaking experience of a traditional cedar tub.
Unlike acrylic tubs, the all-natural cedar construction contains no plastic shell or synthetic surfaces. Western Red Cedar naturally resists moisture, mold, and decay, and releases a subtle natural aroma that enhances the soaking experience.
Built with thick solid staves and traditional construction methods, this cedar hot tub is designed to last 15–20+ years outdoors with simple and straightforward maintenance.
