The house
Description
The Jalousie House is a fictional restoration used to show how the practice handles architecturally significant stock. Built in the concept in 1961 by a regional modernist and lifted on slender piers above the sea oats, it is presented as a house to conserve rather than replace.
Inside, the concept keeps what matters: poured terrazzo, walnut built-ins, a clerestory that stripes the floor by mid-morning, and jalousie windows that still crank. Mechanical systems, glazing and the roof are described as new in the scenario; the character is not.
The sunset room — a covered outdoor space between the house and the dune — is the argument. Our fictional advisory would launch this house at 6:40pm and let the photograph do the work.

Neighborhood context
Siesta Key
The concept places the house at the quieter southern end of Siesta Key: sand underfoot in ninety seconds, the village a short bicycle ride north.
