Coral Gables Residence — architectural detail.
The challenge

A landmark-adjacent Mediterranean Revival home with failing original systems and interiors that hadn't been touched in decades.

The vision

Preserve the arches, the massing and the barrel-tile roofline that make the house belong to Coral Gables, and rebuild everything behind that shell.

The transformation

Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems were fully replaced, and every interior surface was rebuilt in a palette that respects the home's original character.

Coral Gables Residence — interior detail.
Detail

Restraint, in a historic shell.

Coral Gables' architectural character rules were treated as a discipline, not a constraint — the arches and massing stayed, everything behind them was rebuilt.

Coral Gables Residence — material study.
Detail

Old bones, new systems.

A full mechanical, electrical and plumbing rebuild sits invisibly behind original stucco archways and a barrel-tile roofline left untouched.

Before / after

Room by room, walk through the transformation.
