Welcome from Showhouse Chairs

We are so fortunate to present this lovely 1926 craftsman-style home as one of the 2012 Showhouses. What is not known to many is that the two-story section of the house was built off-site and barged down Sarasota Bay from another location. Please enjoy and be inspired by the creative and colorful designs of the 20-plus Sarasota area designers and firms that share their time and talent for the benefit of the Boys & Girls Clubs. A most special thanks to David and Ilene Denton for giving their home in support of this event!-- Jeff Hart, ASID Chair Denton Home

This year, designers have created a renovation plan solving many old problems, by making the home more functional and updating the look of the interiors. Enlarging the garage, moving the kitchen, taking out dated built-ins, renovating bathrooms and making the master suite more luxurious were among the defined objectives masterfully achieved. Coastal is the interior design theme for this 50’s ranch- style home – fresh livable colors and furnishings. Traditional styles with new sea side finishes make it a perfect fit for Sarasota lifestyles. We hope enjoy the experience and the gratification that you are helping the future – the youth in our own community. -- Robert A. Henry, ASID Chair Robinson Home
