Look up to the master bedroom’s 10-foot dome, and you’ll see 1,500 points of light, programmed to replicate the night sky as seen on April 14, 1961—a significant day for the owner. Even the Aqua logo is used as wallpaper on the Crestron touchscreens.

This was certainly a different project, Jochum admits. “We usually do something where people are living every day, but because this is more of a showpiece, we weren’t limited by that,” he says. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t difficult. The project’s completion had to be delayed when a hurricane hit and the floors were damaged by water. And in this case, the homeowner was uninvolved until the very end; his project manager oversaw everything. “Then the [homeowner] walked in and saw the project, and that’s [stressful].”

It was all about making an impact here—and in that sense, the condo works like a charm.
