Sarasota Art Studio and Master Suite Addition

This project involved a major interior renovation and addition to a 1950’s Sarasota ranch house. The Owners, avid art collectors, requested a contemporary, 2nd story master suite addition that provided privacy from the street and views of Philippi Creek. The steel and concrete block structure was designed as a safe house during hurricanes with back up generator and impact glazing. An art studio and two car garage were added beneath the master suite, which tied into the existing house with a steel and bamboo staircase. Photo: Sweet Sparkman Architecture
