Chad Oppenheim (www.oppenoffice.com), brilliant, young, award winning architect created this tri-level penthouse for his own personal residence on South Beach in its West Lincoln Road district.  This emerging star of the design world has received international recognition for his work while shaking up the skyline of South Florida and his penthouse home is a true reflection of his hyper modern design standard. His home is about soaring, open spaces on three floors built around a courtyard with reflecting pond which is open to the sky.



 

This very private apartment is accessed through its own elevator lobby which opens only to this home on all of its levels, including the rooftop pool level. From the elevator one is greeted with a small open plaza, anchored by the marble, reflecting pond. From this plaza, glass walls soar another two stories with two one bedroom suites opening to the plaza and the main living and dining room with its fourteen feet (4.27 meters) ceilings at the other end of the plaza. Once inside the living room, one is greeted with a space which is at the same time, grand and comfortable with elements of warm, tropical wood floors in the midst of white marble flooring which seem to float right outside to the wide terraces.

The living and dining rooms flow into each other as well as a private, comfortable den with guest bath on its north side and an open, Italian kitchen on its south side. All of the living and dining spaces enjoy tree top views of the urban neighborhood and a look across the low rise apartments between here and Biscayne Bay onto the islands beyond. The living spaces are accessed from this level with elegant wood and marble stairs which have a high tech railing system. On the north side of the second floor is a private, master suite with open plan bath and sinks, an inviting shower system with more body jets than a car wash, and the master’s enclosed water closet with bidet. On the south side of the second level are a generous guestroom with modern en-suite bath and a smaller guestroom adjoining it with en-suite bath and large planter terraces. The main event, however, is the rooftop playground featuring a swimming pool, barbeque, twin outdoor showers, and abundant spaces for sunning and entertaining. This area is destined to be a dining al fresco paradise due to its elevator connection to the floors serving both the kitchen and by-key-access-only, the ground floor.
