Zendo Bungalow


Lido Beach Bungalow Zendo

MyGreenBuildings was hired to construct a zendo (meditaion room) addition and a uniquely playful front facade for one of the oldest homes on Lido Beach. The design by Claude Armstrong of Armstrong + Cohen Architecture, Gainesville, Florida, created a contrasting shape to the original 1940's hip-roof bungalow, and transformed the entry into a playful and inspiring space. One of the notable features of the zendo is the way the entry showcases and protects a cherished Cuban laurel tree, which has become the owner's most-prized landscape feature.
