Gourmet at heart, the Owners of this condominium did not find the remote location of their current kitchen, nor its 90’s generic design, efficient or adequate to serve their life style. With the desire to entertain their family and friends, the Owners wanted to reconfigure their condominium layout to provide an open kitchen with no physical barrier and a better connectivity to the dinning room and living spaces beyond. . . . . . . . . 📷 @rgammaphoto #hivearchitects #sarasota #florida #architecture #sarasotaarchitecture #sarasotamodern #floridamodern #floridaliving #modernhouse #architonic #minimal #design #archilovers #lovedesign #residentialarchitecture #modern #modernkitchen #condoremodel #lbk #longboatkey

Three enclosed phone booths provide privacy for phone calls in an otherwise open office space, and can also serve as solo work stations when needed. The use of color, selected from one of the company’s logo colors, activates the small rooms located on the side of the open ‘Work’ space . . . . . . . . . 📷 @rgammaphoto #hivearchitects #sarasota #florida #commercialinterior #interiors #architecture #sarasotaarchitecture #sarasotamodern #floridamodern #minimal #design #archilovers #lovedesign #phonebooth #wood #woodcladding #accentcolor #steel #customfurniture #framelessglass #tech
Located on Westway Drive In Lido Shores, the original house was designed by Sarasota Architect, Don Chappell, in the mid 80’s as his personal home. Although the current Owners requested the updating of all finishes, the original pastel colored cabinetry in the kitchen and its dynamic configuration designed by Don Chappell, known as a ‘trademark’ of the late architect, was partially kept and made a prominent feature in the new kitchen design. . . . . . . . . . . #hivearchitects #sarasota #florida #architecture #sarasotaarchitecture #sarasotamodern #tropicalmodern #floridamodern #tropicalarchitecture #floridaliving #sarasotaschoolofarchitecture #minimal #design #archilovers #lovedesign #indooroutdoorliving #residential #donchappell #lidoshores #kitchen #remodel

Our tenant improvement design for @adrizertech is fully operational. To celebrate the mid-century features of the building, the original structure is uniformly painted and remains exposed. The continuation of the homogenous ceiling and concrete floor from one end of the building to the other, ties every element of the program and eliminates boundaries between them. . . . . . . . . . #hivearchitects #sarasota #florida #architecture #sarasotaarchitecture #sarasotamodern #floridamodern #sarasotaschoolofarchitecture #minimal #design #archilovers #lovedesign #tech #advertising #advertisingagency #ryangammaphotography #tenantimprovement #midcenturymodern #steel #wood #cladding #interiordesign
The BOTA Center, formally known as the Baker’s Badcock Furniture store was originally built in 1957. After being rescued in 2015 by local developer, Howard Davis of Latitude 27 Properties, the abandoned mid-century building was carefully restored and adapted to serve as creative commercial space in the newly revitalized Rosemary District. Completed in 2017, exactly 60 years after its inception, the building has new tenants moving in and in a few months time will be the new home of hive architects! . . .

MCM1 Residence: Avid of mid-century architecture, the current owner fell in love with the few elements that remained untouched, such as the exposed post and beam structure, the original briquette, the large 8’x8’ sliding glass doors for cross ventilation, and terrazzo floors. In addition to revitalizing the mid-century character of the house, the owner also considered adapting the plan and program of the house to accommodate today’s new way of living.
