SPIRE ARCHITECTURE

 

This waterfront home in Hillsmere redefines what’s possible on the bay. Navigating complex waterfront setbacks, the design team transformed a traditional brick residence with a modern entry sequence, a striking rear façade, and a completely reimagined interior—crafted to embrace natural light and contemporary living.

Through the synergy of SPIRE’s bespoke architectural design process, the owner’s keen eye for detail, and the construction excellence of Mininger Contracting, this renovation became a dynamic expression of form and function, celebrating the home’s sweeping southwestern views and the beauty of its natural setting.

At SPIRE Architecture, we are driven to create authentic living spaces through intentional design. Founded in 2013 by principals Kurt Shepard and Craig Martin, SPIRE believes that a home should not only be safe and beautiful, but also shaped around the way you live. By collaborating closely with our clients, we craft custom solutions that embody our philosophy of Authentic Living, through Design. | Photo: Brian Distad Photography
