Angel Oaks Residence

Miami is, of course, one of America’s most opulent and luxurious cities and it definitely has some architecture to match as is admirably illustrated by Angel Oaks Residence from Strang Design. This modern-looking residence has an eye-catching terrace garden and is highly influenced by Brazilian design aesthetics.

The five-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom property really is a sight to behold and Angel Oaks Residence pays homage to the client’s Brazilian heritage and serves as the perfect showroom for their fantastic selection of vintage furniture and artwork that the couple have collected through extensive travel all over the world.

The two levels of the stunning home are materially distinct. Rough-cut Jerusalem tile and exposed board-formed concrete act as a heavy ground-floor base. The second storey of Angel Oaks Residence in Miami is wrapped with vertical ipe wood fins that jut out from a densely landscaped planter and add a real visual impact to the property.

The U-shaped property centres around an expansive pool with family spaces positioned centrally on the ground floor and private bedrooms that overlook the backyard on the second level, set back from the perimeter by the aforementioned planter.

Vibrant colours and shapes are dotted throughout Angel Oaks Residence and these add surprise to the spaces such as a Janaina Tschape painting in the living room and a metallic octopus hanging in the trees in the home’s garden.

In the centre of the plot for Angel Oaks Residence, the Sukabumi tile gives way to a rectangular pool, which is enveloped by native species of plants that were picked by La Casona Garden. The majestic garden of this Miami home includes a dedicated wildlife habitat section, certified by the National Wildlife Habitat.
