Our renovation of this historic home in Miami Beach was awarded the Barbara Baer Capitman Award from the Miami Design Preservation League in recognition of its significant contribution to preserving the city's architectural heritage. The 6,000 square-foot house dates from 1929 and has a distinctive plan that takes full advantage of its site. An arched gateway leads to a shaded loggia alongside a garden courtyard that gives the impression of a much larger house. In renovating the house, our approach was intentionally seamless so that the old and new would be in harmony. Interior rooms were reorganized to be larger and more efficient. A covered porch was added to the east façade with a terrace above to capture ocean views. Moroccan-flavored details include Moorish-style arched openings, carved plaster walls, and vibrant tilework in geometric patterns.
