A dated full-floor unit with its best rooms facing the street and its ocean-facing rooms treated as an afterthought — a poor use of an oceanfront address.
Reorient the entire plan around the water, with the living areas and primary suite both opening directly onto the ocean-facing terrace.
Interior walls were removed and rebuilt to flip the plan, with salt-air-rated materials specified throughout so the finish quality holds up to the exposure.
Reoriented toward the ocean.
The original layout buried the best rooms on the street side. The plan was rebuilt so the living areas and primary suite both open to the water.
Built for salt air.
Every material specified for oceanfront durability first, warmth second — and it still reads as considered, not utilitarian.
Room by room, walk through the transformation.
“You could always hear the ocean. Now you can see it from every room that matters.”Homeowner, Sunny Isles Oceanfront Residence
