The project involved the remodeling of an
existing 1950s duplex located in Coral Gables,
Florida. Purchased by a single family, the owners
wanted to transform the existing
compartmentalized structure into an open plan
capable of meeting the needs of their growing
family.

To this end, the design reconfigures the existing
building, capitalizing on the long-span truss
system to open-up the upper floor and create a
new living/dining space.  .

This room, flanked on one side by terraces that
open to the garden and on the other by secondary
program including a kitchen and bathroom, becomes
the most important space of the new house.
