SUMMARY
400 SOLA was AADMIXX’s first solo design+build project & our first attempt at redefining the urban landscape of Historic Hyde Park here in Tampa, Florida. At the time it was built, this part of Hyde Park was a wide open landscape for urban design exploration & implementation. There were no governing design review boards which meant that we had free range to infuse our own unique Urban Progressive design aesthetic into the neighborhood with no restrictions. Admittedly, there were sleepless nights. Would this otherwise historically leaning community welcome something new & forward thinking into the mix or would it reject modern progress? We took a leap of faith hoping that by simply bringing honest design, integrity & quality, our work would speak for itself. The gamble paid off & in the end we couldn’t have been more encouraged by the outcome. The community embraced us wholeheartedly, from the next door neighbors to some of the block’s original & last living matriarchs. We even brought home 5 of the 9 possible awards from the Tampa Bay Builder Association’s annual Parade of Homes that year including Best in Class for the categories of, Architecture, Curb Appeal, Price Category $1.25M - $1.5M, Primary Suite Design, & the GRAND DIAMOND AWARD for the best overall project. Needless to say that not only provided some validation but it set the bar, & more importantly, inspired us to keep pushing forward with our newly awarded design style. In the mixx indeed.
