Casey Key Island

Waterfront Residence Designed for Gulf-to-Bay Living

This Gulf-to-Bay residence on Casey Key reflects CMSA Architects’ long-standing experience designing high-performance waterfront homes shaped by climate, context, and longevity. Spanning from the Gulf of Mexico to Sarasota Bay, the home is organized to maximize natural light, expansive views, and cross-ventilation while supporting a calm, livable rhythm across all three levels. Rather than pursuing trend-driven coastal expression, the architecture draws from British West Indies precedents that have proven resilient over time. Balanced massing, layered rooflines, and generous porches are employed as functional strategies—controlling scale, shading exterior walls, and reinforcing indoor–outdoor living suited to barrier island conditions.
