Project Description
Choeff Levy Fischman are experts in the field of Modern and Tropical Modern architecture, the use of indoor-outdoor living design and environmental architecture which focuses on the melding of the elements that surround an individual site. According to Choeff Levy Fischman, many of their clients specifically ask for Tropical Modern, drawn not only to its aesthetics but also to its principles. Baseball star Alex Rodriguez’s former home at 4358 North Bay Road in Miami Beach is a good example of both. The entire rear façade of the house is comprised of glass sliding doors opening it up to stunning Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay views, bringing them into the interior of the space. A 450-square foot, double-height greenwall atrium – situated between the living room and kitchen on the first floor and the master bedroom and bathroom on the second floor – draws natural light into the deeper interior areas. The high-ceilinged living area can easily evolve into a lavish entertaining space. Lines and tones are consistent, pure, and clean; floors are beeswax-finished white oak, and art selected by the client adds warmth, color and character.
