“Our goal was to have natural flow. So that the interior of the home was one with the outside.”

-Max Strang

[Underscore] tropical modernist ambiance while kneading in sophistication, elegance, and a sense of timelessness.

- Highlighted by natural materials.
- Supported by the staples for which we’ve become known.
- Exemplified by conscious consideration of flow and geometry.

Five Palms succinctly captures the sophistication, elegance, and timelessness of modernist designs, rooted in traditional Florida vernacular methods. The home, located on a protected waterway in Miami Beach, exhibits a carefully considered assemblage of interlocking horizontal and vertical forms organized around a small central courtyard

“What makes us so excited about his work is that it continues the evolution, of a specifically Floridian version of Modernism.”

- John T. O’Connor, Tropic Magazine

The main residence offers a refined application of natural materials in conjunction with modern design elements. The use of locally sourced coral stone, combined with hardwood accents, underscores the tropical modernist ambience of the home, and ensures a warmth to the material palette. Large balconies and deep roof projections provide relief from the subtropical climate.
