Relevant Design For All Time By Mary Lou Janson
No corners were cut and quality was never compromised, despite the intricate and elaborate architectural design and globally-sourced, one-of-a-kind features and finishings found, within this custom-built Island Estates residence, located between Clearwater Beach and downtown Clearwater. Several years passed from the time ground was broken for the waterfront home, offering eastern views of Clearwater Harbor from its backyard, until it was move-in ready. The work is now complete and the wait has ended, as commissioned paintings have been hung in place, wine cellar racks filled and final touches were finally applied. Within the walls of the 10,000square-foot, four-floor residence, are subtle details that delight and non-traditional touches that intrigue. Corners weren’t cut, but instead, were frequently bypassed in favor of curved walls and windows that can only fit with specially designed banquettes, made without seams, custom wooden cabinetry and melted glass, molded to sit snugly against a rounded surface.
