Embracing Opulence

The Ultimate Outdoor Living Experience at Gulf Front Estate

Luxury living has transcended the confines of indoor spaces, flourishing in the great outdoors. The days of simply having fine materials and modern features are behind us. Today, there’s a quest for creating an oasis akin to an all-inclusive resort, where every need is effortlessly met. The Gulf Front Estate by D’Asign Source, a paragon in luxury design and construction, epitomizes this trend in their latest project in the Florida Keys.

Spanning a breathtaking 23,913 square feet, Gulf Front Estate residence showcases some of the most meticulously crafted architectural details in the region. Yet, the true essence of luxury is embodied in its outdoor living spaces. From a lazy river and swim-up bar to four distinct pools, a putting green and a cozy fire pit, the estate offers an experience that rivals the finest luxury spas and hotels worldwide. Tropical plants seamlessly blend with hardscaped areas, providing shade and visual intrigue to the lush outdoor rooms that tantalize the senses with rich aromas and vibrant colors.

In an exclusive interview with Project Manager Nicholas D’Ascanio, we delved into the creation of Gulf Front Estate. Conceived as a resort-style retreat catering to both family and business needs, the estate’s design allows for multiple guests to enjoy privacy in separate quarters, all centered around the magnificent main pool area. Elevated six feet for hurricane protection, the pool area is a marvel of engineering, with nearly all surfaces pile-supported and pool equipment discreetly hidden to preserve the aesthetic harmony.

The outdoor space is a masterpiece of lush, functional design. Eschewing sterile simplicity, it embraces the tropical essence of the region, transforming every inch into a lavish, integrated retreat. The inclusion of modern technology is subtle, yet impactful, with hidden amenities like band plug-in areas and powerful generators ensuring the estate remains ultra-modern without compromising its serene atmosphere.

One standout feature is the transformation of an old excavation site into a stunning waterfall and pond, showcasing the design team’s ingenuity. High-quality, locally sourced materials, such as natural stone, ensure durability and longevity, while palm trees, chosen for their hurricane resilience, enhance the tropical ambiance. Many of the plants are custom-selected from D’Asign Source Botanicals, ensuring they are perfectly suited to the environment.

Maintaining such an opulent estate in a salty, coastal environment presents unique challenges. Materials like stainless steel are favored for their modern appeal but still require diligent maintenance to withstand the elements. The roofing material, the only one with a coast-to-coast warranty, exemplifies the careful selection process to ensure durability against salt water.

Attention to detail is evident throughout the estate. Striking blue mosaics, sourced from industry leader Ray Corral, adorn the pool areas, while the Pebbletec surface of the beach access pool mimics the look of sand.

Artificial turf, chosen for its eco-friendly and practical benefits, spans the property, addressing water limitations and enhancing the landscape.

Designing Gulf Front Estate demanded creativity and a deep understanding of the local environment. From incorporating salt, wind and drought-resistant plants to designing elevated outdoor kitchens, every detail was meticulously planned. The result is a testament to the expertise of the D’Asign Source team, creating a harmonious blend of luxury and nature in this unparalleled outdoor living space.
