Inside an Architectural Sanctuary
Ponce-Davis | Miami
Hidden within the lush canopy of Ponce-Davis stands a residence that was never built to follow trends only to endure.
Designed in the ’70s by architect Chayo Frank as his personal home, this 5,000+square foot steel-framed sanctuary was conceived as an environment, not merely a structure. Inspired by the organic philosophy of Frank Lloyd Wright, the home blends geometry, nature, and permanence with rare intention.
Exposed structural steel beams form its skeleton, while California redwood wraps the interior and exterior in warmth. Curving 10-foot coral rock walls and expansive glass dissolve boundaries between living space and jungle.
A cavernous redwood clad great room with sunken lounge anchors the home. A sculptural staircase hugs coral stone. A ladder-access office floats above like a private aerie. The double height primary suite rises with quiet authority, while upstairs bedrooms open to a terrace immersed in tropical canopy.
A 50 foot lap lane flows into a free form pool bordered by coral stone patios. Winding paths reveal coral grottos & rare imported botanicals a curated ecosystem of extraordinary value.
This is not speculative luxury. It is authored architecture.
A steel & redwood sanctuary that can’t be replicated.
it is rare to encounter a masterpiece of this magnitude and rarer still to deliver a sanctuary like this to the one person capable of truly becoming one with it. Also for sale $9,990,000
