One important aspect is that the sun is kept out on the West by the simple lack of windows in that dir- ection. The entire house was plan- ned to catch Key West’s prevailing southeast breeze. The patio with screened ceiling, though it gets en- ough sunshine in the morning to nourish the boxed plants and shrubs, becomes a shaded, breezy spot after 3 im the afternoon.

It seems much lar- ger because it opens onto the screened patio. Its windows and jalousies bring in not only the patio but the water outside. “It’s a big little house,” said George Curry happily yesterday.
