Specifically designed to address a range of natural elements, tropical architecture focuses on issues of ventilation, integration and climate.
Made to reorganize and contrast with their surroundings, these projects showcase the tension between functional structures and organic contexts.
Light – Water, exterior courtyards, open floor plans, white surfaces reflecting the sun and shade are consistent elements of Tropical Modern.
Shade – Creating protective shade is paramount. Deep porches, extra-wide eaves, verandas, covered walks, lanais and canopies are incorporated to offset the heat.
Tropical themes are inspired by natural beauty, bringing nature indoors with organic colors, textures and forms.
Tropical style furnishings and decor can help inspire a casual, relaxing atmosphere with a resort-style feel.
