A sense of dormant modernism lives inside this 1949 architectural marvel. Rufus Nims designed this modern tropical house within the premise of whom its residents would be— a farmer and seasonal summer resident— in a much less populated Miami. 69 years later, within the modern principals of architecture, Nims experiment has become a true reference of unusual construction and design methodologies, making this residence a timeless design piece. Doo Architecture, has taken the challenge of remodeling this marvel to present day centurial needs — a design based on the home's sense of place.
