Seclusion. Hidden. Privacy. These aren’t that would typically come to mind when describing a home in the middle of Downtown Miami, but that’s exactly what you get with this tropical refuge from Brillhard Architecture. Dense palm tree forests blanket the perimeter of the lot making the home feel as if it was conjured up from the floor of a remote rain forest.

The visual protection the palm trees provide allow the home to be composed of floor to ceiling, wall to wall glazing that modulates light and views with a series of shutters. The interiors are sleek and modern, providing a subdued compliment to the serene exterior space. It’s as close to an urban oasis that you could find, especially in a city known for its…loud…personality.
