photographed by cristóbal palma, the building is clad with dark timber boards that enclose a series of private spaces and direct views towards the crashing waves.
the main feature of the design is the huge kitchen, dining and living space that opens out to the pool and the horizon beyond.
the house consists of three separate brick volumes set above a continuous living space on the ground floor.
the renovation preserves the original masonry façade but carves out a new world inside, one which prioritizes light, space and openness.
One thing I like about this is the “courtyard.” When I lived in North Carolina (USA), I had a wrap around porch under roof on which I could sit outside and watch the incredible rain storms. This space is not that inviting yet, but possibly with a landscape, someday it might be.
I wish the exterior of the house was the color of the red roofs of the surrounding structures. How about a “a little red dress”.
nellie, really? where in florida
I wish I could afford having such wonderful interior!
Really? I grew up in a house similar to this in Florida. they are everywhere in Fla. Only they are far more inviting than this black one. Nothing that new under the sun.
