torna design group inc. 20900 N.E. 30th Ave, Suite # 1001, Aventura, FL, 33180 T.786-206-7290 / F. 1305 425 0327 / info@tomadesigngroup.com Project Description and Applicant's Vision The proposed project involves the construction of a 2 -story single-family residence on the Property. The new home will have a unit size of 6,603 sq. ft. on an 11,250 sq. ft. lot, with a strong aesthetic focus on warm tropical modern architecture. The design for this warm modern 2 -story home on N. Bay Rd features a stunning double -height entrance with exquisite material selection and design. The refined marble accents, glass, and vertical wood slat cladding accents blur lines and distinctly set the house apart. The front vertical wood slats are contained and framed inside the double -height entrance, garage door cladding, and 2nd -floor wood accents, bringing warmth and modernity to the exterior while offering privacy to the 1st and 2nd floor areas of the interior space. For the rear design, the same aesthetic is maintained with consistent use of materials and a covered terrace that includes a 2nd -floor balcony parallel to the rear property line. Large glass sliding door panels bring water views, greenery, and vegetation into the interior space, seamlessly integrating the pool and pool deck and extending the view to the intracoastal and bay area. The project also features a roof terrace designed to maximize the exposure to the open water views of the bay and intracoastal. An exterior detached outdoor kitchen structure blends in with the main home's materials, creating consistency in the architecture style of both structures. The applicant's goal is to build a beautiful warm modern home surrounded by tropical vegetation that blends well with its surroundings. The location is ideal, with plenty of open green space across the street on N. Bay Rd and quiet streets that allow the house to take a back seat to the natural landscape while still enjoying water views and a natural setting close to the heavy traffic areas.
