The 3 townhomes will have living spaces at 2 levels, and 2 levels of outdoor balcony space will give residents skyline views of St. Joseph’s Sound to the west, and of the lively downtown nightlife to the north.

Because of the home’s waterfront location, the owners wanted a modern home built to withstand hurricanes. We designed with that in mind, as well as an aesthetic that expresses the true materials of the home and endures in the harsh Florida coastal climate: poured concrete, steel and minimal stone and wood. During the day, the rooftop solar array captures sunlight for energy use in the home, and the structural steel SIPS panel roof and deep balcony overhangs provide thermal comfort no matter the season. In the morning, sunlight streams through the colored glass blocks scattered on the east wall of the 3 story stair. At day’s end the home’s strong geometry and large openings frame spectacular sunset views to the west.

At the opposite end of the home is a private guest suite. Upstairs, the bedrooms all have views of the water, highlighted by a private master suite with a large shower room creating a relaxing retreat at the end of the day. Outdoors, the canal front location takes advantage of the waterfront with a pool, hot tub, and outdoor entertaining space as well as boating access to Tampa Bay.  [Project gallery](https://searchitecture.com/davis_islands?hsLang=en) ![Image of colonial home with light blue siding, white trim work and a red front door](https://searchitecture.com/hubfs/Residential%20projects/Residential%20-%20Photo%20Gallery%20-%20South%20Tampa%20Colonial%20Front%20-%201200%20x%20800.jpg "Image of colonial home with light blue siding, white trim work and a red front door") #### South Tampa ≈ FL ## Four square modern ### Colonial This new home in the Colonial style for a busy South Tampa family includes an acoustically designed music room for their grand piano.   The home is designed as a classic ‘four square’ with a modern twist: the front of the home is formal and classical in its organization, as the main entry hall, foyer and stair divides the dining and music rooms.   As you move through the arched opening under the stair, the back of the house opens up creating modern, relaxed family spaces.  Custom built-in millwork serves to both define rooms and divide the music room and family room, acting as the ‘occupiable wall’ between them.  Practically, the mechanical (A/C) ductwork is also housed within the depth of that space, both hiding it and creating an aesthetically pleasing feature to pass through as the family moves from one room to another.    [Project gallery](https://searchitecture.com/south_tampa_colonial?hsLang=en) ![Image of wood and stone modern mountain top home with two story balconies](https://searchitecture.com/hubfs/Residential%20projects/Residential%20-%20Photo%20Gallery%20-%20NC%20Mountain%20Modern%20Front%20-%201200%20x%20800.jpg "Image of wood and stone modern mountain top home with two story balconies") #### Fairview ≈ NC ## Mountain home ### Modern Mountain Built on a steeply sloping mountainside, the owners wanted panoramic views of the mountains and sky from their 2 story living space, while also enjoying warm fires in the fireplace.   The home is built of steel framing to accommodate both windy mountain winters and the rocky soil in the NC mountains and is clad in native North Carolina stone and wood siding making it simultaneously modern and timeless in the expression of materials.  -
