Two beautiful homes on Lido Key are being featured as the designer showhouses for the 18th annual Jewels on the Bay. The annual event benefits the Boys & Girls Clubs of Manatee and Sarasota counties.
The two homes featured in the tour boast different architectural styles and features. The Morris home is a 6,400-square-foot Mediterranean-style home, for which 16 spaces were redesigned by 12 designers. The Marr home is a 5,500-square-foot ranch-style home, for which 14 spaces were redesigned by 12 designers.
Though many designers took part in the event, they made sure to make a point to work together to give the rooms a cohesive style for better flow.
