In this episode of 100 Day Dream Home, the hosts Brian and Mika Kleinschmidt are tasked with creating a stunning and functional new home in Key West, Florida for a couple who are relocating from Seattle. The couple is looking for a home that combines the breezy tropical vibes of Key West with the sleek, modern design of the Pacific Northwest.
The couple has a clear vision of what they want in their dream home, but they also have a budget that the Kleinschmidts must work within. As always, time is of the essence, and the design-build pair must finish the home within 100 days.
The episode starts off with the Kleinschmidt team scouting suitable locations for the couple's new home in Key West. They finally settle on a waterfront property with sweeping views of the ocean and a private dock for the couple's boat.
The next step is to work out the design details of the home. The couple insists on an open-concept layout that combines the kitchen, dining, and living areas to create a seamless flow throughout the space. Brian and Mika suggest a modern kitchen with high-end appliances and custom cabinetry that will fit the couple's needs.
The couple also wants a large master suite that overlooks the water and features a walk-in closet and spa-like bathroom. The Kleinschmidts get to work to design a luxurious and functional master suite that meets all of the couple's needs.
The couple has a unique request for the home's exterior – they want it to feature both tropical and modern design elements. Brian and Mika must come up with a design that blends Key West's vibrant colors and patterns with sleek, minimalist finishes.
As the construction phase begins, the Kleinschmidt team runs into a major challenge. The city building codes require them to raise the home's foundation by several feet, making it more expensive and time-consuming to build. The couple wants the home to be as close to the water as possible, so the Kleinschmidts must come up with a compromise that satisfies both the city's requirements and the couple's desire for a waterfront home.
As the deadline approaches, the Kleinschmidts work around the clock to finish the home. They encounter several unexpected delays along the way, including inclement weather and supply chain issues, but they manage to push through and complete the project on time.
In the end, the couple is thrilled with their new home that perfectly blends their desire for a tropical and modern aesthetic. The home features a sleek, airy design with breathtaking ocean views and all the high-end amenities you'd expect in a dream home.
