RIVERCAMPS AT CROOKED CREEK

Panama City Beach, FL

This 1,500 acre woodland preserve is the site of a new development that restores the native landscape and develops an ecologically sensitive residential community that actively embraces the environment. The RiverHouse, various model cabins and the Southern Living Idea House are simple structures that facilitate cross ventilation, provide balanced day lighting and rest lightly upon the land. Screened porches, balconies, broad overhangs and elevated first floors all respond to the climate and are used consistently to define the cabins and structures.
