This new home in the Estate Section of Palm Beach received the 2019 Schuler award, honoring “new architecture that is both in keeping with the character and tradition of Palm Beach while also advancing that character and tradition”.
Featuring an environmentally-friendly roof, 230 solar panels blend seamlessly with flush strips of grass for heat absorption and an ipe-wood deck for entertaining. State-of-the-art designs from Daniel Kahan of Smith and Moore Architects weave progressive thermal insulation techniques, LED lighting & high-efficiency air conditioning with minimalist architectural details featuring 12-foot-tall glass doors, bleached oak flooring, and pure Thassos stone panels.
The courtyard layout, gardens & axial lap pool creates a procession of outdoor ‘rooms’, inviting layered native greenery to co-mingle and expand the interior living spaces. Careful attention to landscape lighting washes the property with a subtle moonlight glow.
