Client: Home Owner
Location: Hutchinson Island, FL
Project Type: Residential / Landscape / Hardscape
Timeline: Â 6 Days Printing / 3 Days to Install (by Contractor)
The Challenge
For the owner of this premier waterfront estate, standard outdoor furnishings and pre-cast architectural elements from a catalog simply did not measure up to the property’s grandeur. The client sought a finishing touch that felt as extraordinary as the view, a privacy screen spanning two floors was needed to shield the home without blocking the air or ruining the aesthetic. They required a material capable of surviving the harsh, salty coastal environment while offering a level of sculptural beauty that traditional construction methods could not achieve.
The Solution
What began as a single commission for a privacy screen quickly evolved into a comprehensive design partnership. Printera’s ability to print organic, free-flowing shapes allowed us to create a unified design language that echoed the natural surroundings. We crafted an outdoor kitchen with undulations inspired by driftwood and poolside tables featuring intricate textures reminiscent of coral reefs. The scope expanded to include massive 7-foot planters that anchor the landscape, and distinct, star-shaped geometric vessels for the third-floor balcony. We even solved functional eyesores by printing custom covers for utility piping, seamlessly blending infrastructure with art.
The Outcome
This project stands as a testament to the versatility of 3D concrete printing in high-end residential design. By moving beyond simple construction, Printera acted as a sculptural artisan, delivering a cohesive suite of features that are as durable as they are beautiful. The result is a fully integrated outdoor living space where every element; from the functional kitchen to the decorative planters, feels like it grew naturally from the site. Perfectly tailored to the client’s vision and the coastal atmosphere.
