Owned by a Torontonian couple in Vero Beach, Florida, this 7,200 square-foot vacation retreat is located on the waterfront near John's Island. The interior derives from the home's strong architectural elements and sports a vibrant blend of colours - fuchsias, turquoises, and kiwis to reflect the bright, natural beauty of that part of the state.

This bioclimatic custom residence on a small lake in Orlando, Florida, brings open, flow through living to its tropical garden site. Three pavilions provide live/work/guest spaces, intertwining architecture with awesome mature live oaks. Dramatic cantilevers provide shade and dynamic movement. The simplicity of the architecture meets a cooly casual materials palette, including ocala block, galvalume, and corrugated cement siding on the exterior, with terrazzo floors, louvered windows and exposed block on the interior.

This is an example of a tropical bedroom in Newcastle - Maitland with white walls, light hardwood floors and beige floor.

Design ideas for a large tropical master bathroom in Little Rock with a freestanding tub, blue walls, medium hardwood floors, brown floor, white benchtops, shaker cabinets, white cabinets, an alcove shower, granite benchtops and a hinged shower door.

The clean, uninterrupted sight lines of this bathroom lead the eye to the arched shower room opening, where on the right is the shower and to the left, a built-in whirlpool tub. The clerestory daylighting contributes masterfully to the ambient light while affording privacy, and unique touches like above-mount sinks, wall-mount fixtures, framed mirrors and teak mats provide the bathroom with plenty of personality.
