Island Georgian
A Georgian-Inspired Gulf-Front Residence
Island Georgian is a Gulf-front residence designed as a multi-generational retreat, balancing classical Georgian architecture with the realities of island living. Set along Florida’s barrier islands, the home is elevated and composed to meet environmental requirements while maintaining architectural clarity. The exterior is defined by generous overhangs, deep terraces, and shaded outdoor rooms that capture Gulf breezes and provide relief from the sun. These elements adapt traditional Georgian proportions to a coastal context, creating a composed yet relaxed exterior presence. Inside, the home blends refined detailing with barefoot ease. Interior spaces range from formal, Georgian-influenced rooms to relaxed family areas oriented toward panoramic water views. Living spaces and the pool are elevated to the main level, strengthening the connection between indoor life and the Gulf beyond.
Island Georgian reflects CMSA Architects’ ability to reinterpret classical architecture through a coastal lens, resulting in a residence that is both dignified and comfortably lived in.
