The Lagoon Residence positions itself as a sophisticated outpost along a desolate and relatively untouched stretch of coastline in the Upper Florida Keys. Its unique and natural site offers an unhurried counterpoint to the intensities of the nearby Miami metropolis. The home partially engages a pre-existing berm while also demonstrating a certain degree of freedom from the low-lying landscape. Like Paul Rudolph’s concept for many of his Sarasota homes in the 1950s, the Reef is essentially a floating volume veiled by sun-catching and shadow-casting louvers.
