ORANGE AVE HIGH-RISE

Located in the heart of Historic Downtown Sarasota, this 3,000-square-foot condominium was completely transformed through Eridel Construction & Design's integrated design-build approach, where both the construction and interior design were executed under a single, cohesive vision. While the residence offered generous square footage and an exceptional urban location, the homeowners desired a home that felt more reflective of their lifestyle—one that balanced sophisticated city living with the warmth, comfort, and elegance of a custom luxury residence.

The project began with a comprehensive reimagining of the home's interior architecture and functionality. As with many condominium renovations, building restrictions required that the overall plumbing locations remain largely unchanged, creating a unique design challenge. Rather than viewing these limitations as obstacles, Eridel Construction & Design approached them as opportunities for creative problem-solving. Through thoughtful space planning, strategic architectural interventions, and carefully considered design solutions, the residence was transformed while maintaining compliance with condominium requirements.

Existing spaces were carefully evaluated and redesigned to improve flow, maximize natural light, and create a stronger sense of connection between the home's primary living areas. Every square foot was intentionally planned to enhance functionality while creating a more cohesive and purposeful environment tailored specifically to the way the homeowners live, entertain, and experience their home.

Throughout the design process, every detail was considered through the lens of both beauty and functionality. Custom millwork, architectural detailing, carefully curated materials, and thoughtfully layered finishes were introduced to create depth, character, and a sense of permanence throughout the residence. Rich textures, sophisticated stone selections, custom cabinetry, and refined lighting work together to create an atmosphere that feels elevated yet approachable.

The design aesthetic embraces a timeless contemporary sensibility, balancing clean architectural lines with warmth and livability. Soft neutral tones, natural materials, layered textures, and carefully selected furnishings create a sophisticated backdrop while allowing architectural details and custom craftsmanship to take center stage. Every finish and furnishing was selected to contribute to a cohesive visual language that carries seamlessly throughout the home.

The kitchen, dining, and living spaces were designed as interconnected gathering areas that encourage both everyday living and entertaining. Custom cabinetry and built-in features provide beauty and functionality, while carefully planned furniture layouts create intimate moments within the larger open spaces. Decorative lighting, art, and accessories were thoughtfully curated to add personality and warmth without overwhelming the overall design.

From demolition through final installation, Eridel Construction & Design oversaw every aspect of the construction and design process, ensuring that each detail was executed with precision and intention. The result is a residence that feels dramatically transformed—a sophisticated downtown retreat where architecture, construction, and interior design work together to create a timeless home tailored to modern luxury living in the heart of Sarasota.

CLIENT EXPERIENCE

“Eridel recently completed a major renovation on our Sarasota downtown condo. From start to finish, the entire team exceeded our expectations. From communications to execution, they were responsive, creative, phenomenal listeners and solution-oriented.

We never thought we could feel so positive about a design team, but found Erin to be truly gifted, unflappable and the consummate professional.


Erin and Allison were a seamless duo and absolutely nailed every detail of design, reflecting our preferences. Oliver and his team coordinated at high standards to execute all plans, and also responded well to issues that arose, requiring creative and effective problem solving. The finished project flows so well that visitors can’t distinguish between this project and what remained from our original build-out 15 years ago.

We are thrilled with our new home, and marvel at our good fortune of being able to work with Erin and her entire extended team. Without question, we benefited from Erin’s varied design experiences and her deep connections to vendors in this market. Oliver ensured that, even in the pandemic, he employed only subcontractors who could meet our collective standards.

In sum, this team was professional, creative, thoughtful, meticulous and an absolute delight to work with.”
