florida evergreen estate [tandem garage + DWELLING]
Project Size: 1000 sq.ft Garage + 1000 sq.ft Apartment
This project adds an impressive new structure to the Labelle Estate, with a 1000 sqft four-car tandem garage below and a matching 1000 sqft one-bedroom apartment above. The garage serves as both a storage haven and a mancave, designed for the client’s outdoor lifestyle, complete with floor-to-ceiling storage, a built-in workbench, and access points on either side. Above the garage, the apartment is a stylish retreat, featuring 20 foot, angled ceilings, faux beams, and expansive windows that showcase the height and unique roof structure. The apartment’s back terrace offers a luxurious outdoor lounge area with a fire pit and hammock, while the front terrace provides a cozy reading or relaxation spot, immersed in the existing gorgeous trees. In the bathroom, two types of tile are smashed and collected to create a unique mosaic floor.
