So, the couple purchased two adjoining Intracoastal point lots and hired Benedict and Brosché to help realize their vision. “This house is contemporary in every way,” Benedict says.
“Glass is very important to the architecture
and the white-on-white scheme allows the forms to do the talking.”
Modernists at heart, the couple opted for a strong use of color “to give the interior drama without detracting from its architecture and views,” the husband says.

According to Brosché, the couple’s compatibility and mutual affinity for modern design made them the ideal clients. “They wanted a clean-lined, contemporary look based on classic modern
motifs but with a lot of energy in the color selection, accessories and furnishings,” he says. “They basically agreed on every design decision completely.”
