FLORIDA DESIGN WORKS
Local home experts share guidance and hottest trends for new ideas and inspiration in building and decorating.
FLORIDA DESIGN WORKS Looking for a way to offer a sense of grandeur and expansiveness to your space? Take the “bigger is better” trend into your home when revitalizing your kitchen, outdoor space, or bathrooms. Large format tiles, typically measuring 24’ x 24’ or larger, have revolutionized the way spaces are adorned and perceived. The expansive surface area of these tiles can make any space appear larger and more open. The reduction in grout lines, compared to smaller tiles, contributes to a cleaner, more streamlined look, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal. The appeal of large format tiles is not limited to their visual and functional advantages. These tiles also allow for more innovative design possibilities – with advancements in print and manufacturing technologies, large format tiles can mimic the appearance of various natural materials, such as marble, wood, and concrete with astonishing realism. This versatility empowers designers and homeowners to achieve the aesthetic they desire while benefiting from the practicality and durability of ceramic or porcelain tiles. Florida Design Works is dedicated to help transform your next remodel or new-build project with any of the 40,000+ exclusive products through our showroom.

Domicile LEE WETHERINGTON HOMES Consistency is an art. For decades, this core belief has driven Lee Wetherington Homes to transform bold, beautiful ideas into timeless masterpieces. A truly shining example is the Solstice model – the longtime local homebuilder’s innovative take on modern ranch-style architecture – nestled amid the “hometown” feel of Star Farms at Lakewood Ranch.
A showstopper during the Parade of Homes and winner of “Best in Show” and “Best Single-Family Custom Home” at the Southeast Building Conference’s Aurora Awards, the Solstice’s spacious single-story floor plan perfectly blends dark metals with organic materials. An experience starts in the foyer, surrounded by elegant wood trim and slim wall sconces, and flows throughout, from the primary bathroom’s soft, backlit stone to the bourbon room’s eye-catching floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and bar island. With forward-thinking features and breathtaking spaces that evoke a oneness with nature, the Solstice embodies how aspirations turn into reality for discerning homebuyers.

The latest trend to have captured the hearts of Southwest Florida homeowners has to do with dimensional wall tile or tile with depth to take that spa look home. Imagine a tile that captures the linear wood-inspired Zen of a spa. These are large format tiles that focus attention on the dimensional pattern of the tile rather than the grout lines. They are very modern, yet intensely classy in design. Take Filletto Camel, an 18”x48” ceramic wall tile. It will create a warm, relaxing setting whether you install the tile horizontally, vertically, or in combination. These tiles add a touch of depth to the room and complement many different room finishes depending on what you select as a floor tile, and what type fixtures you select in a bathroom. You’ll find these looks and more at Tile Outlets of America, established in 2002, and with stores in Sarasota, Fort Myers, and Tampa. Visit www.tileoutlets.com for hours and directions.

JOHN CANNON HOMES The Oulina is a new model that John Cannon Homes has in the works for Kingfisher Estates in Waterside at Lakewood Ranch. The Oulina will feature a modern look that has never been seen before in Lakewood Ranch. Based on Kingfisher Lake and its spectacular views, it features soaring windows, warm wood tones, mixed metals, and wood slat detailing. In contrast to the openness of the massive windows, the dark moody kitchen is a sight to see. Fire elements, innovative ceiling treatments, and fitness spaces will also be featured. Electronically switchable glass changes the glass in the master suite from clear to opaque, as it would in the finest resorts. The Oulina’s clean lines strip away unnecessary details, allowing the materials and textures to shine. The Oulina model is projected to open in late 2024. For more information, please contact us at 941.924.5935.
