North Lake Way Residence (Palm Beach, FL)

North Lake Way Residence (Palm Beach, FL)

One of Shoumate’s first recorded commissions was this Art Moderne residence for the Stechers. The avant-garde structure resembles a ship and features many Moderne elements such as a flat roof, scalloped details, and rounded corners. It’s believed that the plans of the house were submitted for the 1939 World’s Fair House of the Future Award. It was designated in 1986.
