Meticulously updated in 2005, this home offers a wealth of architectural details including a colossal pyramid-shaped skylight over a central great room allowing natural light to bathe the home in a soft glow. Fronting the property is a gated and walled courtyard, covered with lush foliage and colored glass. The courtyard itself is spacious and private, with a paved area, abundant yard space and tall bamboo, highlighted at night by warm spotlights.
Anchoring the house and flowing in a curved pattern, the brick flooring seemingly leads from one unique area to another guiding one through the house. Treister designed the home without 90 degree angles (except for skylights). Curved, non-linear walls and soffits abound. Unique tiles, glass stones, colored glass windows and concrete & brick flooring add to the distinctive and unparalleled design. But the awe-inspiring feature is the voluminous ceiling topped by the pyramid-shaped skylight in the living room, which brings the outside, in.
For entertaining or just relaxing, the spacious rear yard offers privacy via a fence that is covered in beautiful "Blue Sky" vines from Southeast Asia.
Inside or out, front or back, this property is a dramatic piece of work by a world-renowned architect, artist and sculptor, who has left his creative imprint. Yet, it still conveys the warmth of a family home.
About the Neighborhood
Sans Souci Estates is a guard-gated, waterfront community along the northern edge of Biscayne Bay. This secluded neighborhood offers privacy and security while at the same time providing proximity to Downtown Miami and South Beach. Many fine-dining restaurants are minutes away as is a newly opened Whole Foods. Also nearby is world-class shopping at the Bal Harbour and Aventura Malls. Close to the beach, bay, and state parks, Sans Souci Estates offers a multitude of opportunities for recreation and relaxation.
Since its development, this family oriented neighborhood has grown to 200 homes in a variety of building styles from classical Florida architecture to modern, multimillion dollar estates. An active home owners association promotes an atmosphere of community and family by organizing social gatherings for residents. With “A” rated elementary, middle, and high schools, this is an ideal family neighborhood. Sans Souci, from French meaning “No Worries”.
About the Architect
The architect of 11590 NE 21st Drive is Kenneth Treister, an extraordinary, award winning architect, artist, and author. With a career that spans more than 50 years he is one of South Florida’s most iconic designers. His works include large commercial and residential developments, hotels, parks, monuments, and several private residences. Influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, Treister is part of a movement known as Subtropical Modernism and his designs are anything except ordinary. His acclaimed works include The Mayfair Hotel in Coconut Grove, Yacht Harbour Condominium, the Gumenick Chapel, Elizabeth Virrick Park, and the monumental Miami Beach Holocaust Memorial for which he was both sculpture and architect, to name a few.
Kenneth Treister was an Adjunct Professor of Architecture at both the University of Miami and the University of Florida. He has published 9 books on architecture, produced 4 television documentaries and written more the 50 articles on the subject. His awards include the Gold Medal of the Americans Institute of Architects as wells as its Life Time Achievement Award. Treister is a member of Real Academia de Belles Arts de Sant Jorge, Barcelona, Spain, one of the oldest academies of architecture and art in the world. He has lectured on the subject at Universities in Asia, Europe, and North and South America. An archive of his work, the Kenneth Treister Collection, has been established at the University of Florida.
In 11590 NE 21st Drive, Treister’s Wrightian and Subtropical Modernist influences can be appreciated with the characteristic use of the roof as a major design element, use of natural light, and free flowing interior space.
