Christophe Harbour, the 2,500-acre premier luxury residential resort and superyacht marina in St. Kitts, is delighted to announce that one of its private, custom-built luxury homes was recognized for the design of its pool house from the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) Florida North Chapter. The Pool House, which received first place in the  Outdoor Living category, was designed by Florida-based Robyn Branch Design.

The homeowners spend a significant amount of time in the Caribbean and wanted the home, and the Pool House in particular, to not only take full advantage of the panoramic Caribbean views but also bring some of the outside in. Branch answered that call by draping the Pool House in multiple shades of blues and greens accented by dark wood pieces and organic elements such as shells and nature-inspired original art. 

The ASID National Awards represent the American Society of Interior Designers’ highest level of professional recognition, collaborating with industry professionals to promote the value of interior design. Founded in 1975, it is the largest and only multi-disciplinary professional organization in America for interior designers, students and manufacturers who support the profession.

Robyn Branch, founder of the eponymous design studio, said “This is our second first-place ASID win in two consecutive years and is a fantastic achievement for the team.  We are committed to helping our clients achieve a comfortable, contemporary and timeless look for their homes, wherever in the world it is located.”

Gena Conroy, Christophe Harbour VP Sales & Marketing added, “To be recognized by a national body such as ASID is a wonderful accolade for one of Christophe Harbour’s private residences. We are fortunate to be working so closely with such a professional group who understand Christophe Harbour’s ethos for inspirational design rooted in indigenous materials and architecture.”
