Overlooking Sarasota Bay, Bayview is an interesting mid-century modern home owned by a young couple. They want to reconnect with their former hometown, Sarasota, Florida. Designed by Sweet Sparkman Architects, this home has a new structure that used to create the three distinct outdoor environments with a separated program.

The backyard undulating topography of this home can provide awesome views of the bay and also the Lido Key. While the courtyard is located within the main house and the guest’s house, creating a private green space for the children of the young couple to play. There is also a sea of grasses and ferns, framing the eastern and northern facades that create a contrast to the dark limestone walls.

Bayview has a large gate that can welcome the guests into the courtyard. In order to create some gaps, architecture from Sweet Sparkman Architects uses the separated roofs, steel columns, and slabs cantilevering. The roofs are separated from the walls by some and the steel columns terminate to the thin knife plates

The staircase continues the home design concept, it is floating above the monolithic plinth. The home spaces, including the guest’s house located at the extreme eastern side of the home site, are offering awesome views to the bay.
