Epoch Sarasota in Florida, an ultra-luxury residential tower designed by Nichols

Design: Nichols Architects

Location: Bay Park, Sarasota, Florida, USA

Inspired by the timeless design of the Sarasota School of Architecture the Epoch Sarasota ultra-luxury residential tower takes full advantage of the sites dominant position. Utilizing a delicate mix of glass and concrete bris-solei, the separation between inside and outside has been blurred to an extent that has not been experienced since the Sarasota School of Architecture was first established.

The loose definition of space with slabs that cantilever past glass lines and shadow patterns that infiltrate indoor spaces allow the occupant to feel free of the constraints of the architecture itself allowing for the full enjoyment of the views.

At the penthouse level, the effect is most evident with the glass enclosed living area being sheltered by a monumental brise soleil that also shelters the adjacent terrace along with the secondary upper terrace above the interior living space. All the while it cast shadows on all these space making sure that wherever the resident finds itself they are always conscious of the brise soleil constantly sheltering them.
