Project Narrative

This site looks across the water toward the St. Petersburg skyline, and the whole section of the house is arranged to keep that view in play. Garage and entry sit at grade, the principal living floor rises to the level where the water opens up, and a covered deck on the third floor lifts the family higher still for sunsets over the bay. A broad low-pitched gable caps the composition with deep overhangs and exposed outriggers throwing shade across the elevations.

At the base, stone cladding wraps the stair and the piers, giving the approach a cool, tactile weight before the walls turn to board-and-batten and shiplap above. Inside, the living room sets exposed timber beams and a linear hearth against pale plaster, with windows placed low and wide so the palms and the towers beyond arrive as framed pictures.
