Finding a place to park is never a problem at the Livingston Woods home of Todd and Sara Rosenthal. Their 270-foot main driveway seems to stretch as long as the Champs-Élysées; they have plenty of garage space; and the couple routinely pulls a car or two, or eight, directly inside their dwelling.
Working with Brandt Henning of HLevel Architecture, the Rosenthals—who own Naples Motorsports, one of the nation’s most prominent exotic car dealerships—set out to rethink domestic space as an extension of their showroom life. Together, they created a property that dissolves the line between garage and gallery.

Todd and Sara Rosenthal, owners of Naples Motorsports, commissioned Brandt Henning of HLevel Architecture to design a Livingston Woods residence centered on their passion for exotic automobiles. Set on 2.5 manicured acres, the property blurs the line between garage and gallery, with glass-fronted display bays and a looping go-kart track encircling the car barn.
The 7,658-square-foot main residence pairs with a 4,392-square-foot car barn on a manicured 2.5-acre lot. From the onset, glass-fronted garages and a lofty entry telegraph the intent: architecture as a frame for automotive art. Step through the 10-foot glass front door and the theme continues. The 22-foot-tall foyer features a scaled-down Formula One single-seater mounted on the wall. Straight ahead and across the pool, more mechanical wonders are displayed in their appointed bays, curated to match the mood or season. “[It’s] like an ever-changing art installation,” Henning says. LED track lighting, recessed into sleek coves, frames each vehicle as an object of contemplation. When the owners need room for gaming or events, the cars can be moved or swapped out.
The home’s layout organizes five connected ‘pods’ that articulate different facets of the Rosenthals’ life. The main entertainment pod centers on the double-height foyer, featuring an island bar and framed staircase leading to the guest rooms and children’s quarters. A glass-and-aluminum ‘bridge’ connects to the owners’ wing, housing their private suite. Additional pods hold a theater and more car display space, each balancing utility with spectacle.

The interplay between residential and mechanical space reaches its peak in the four-bay garage. Two traditional doors handle the functional side; the others are full-height glass doors framed in black aluminum, which showcase the collection, creating a cinematic arrival. Henning extended the gallery concept inside of the garage with marble-like porcelain tile instead of traditional concrete or epoxy and inset, linear LEDs that cast a soft, directional glow.

LED track lighting frames vehicles in glass-fronted bays as objects of contemplation—in the living room, a gorilla sculpture by Eddy Maniez adds unexpected wit to the collection. The exterior layers white stucco with travertine-look porcelain tile and black-framed glass for a clean, linear rhythm.
Behind the main house, the freestanding car barn began as simple storage and evolved to include a lounge and bar with space for more than a dozen vehicles. A central turntable rotates one of the Rosenthals’ prized cars, and in the bathroom, 15 rearview mirrors constitute a theatrical vanity.

Even smaller spaces reinforce the automotive theme. Fifteen rearview mirrors make up the powder room’s vanity mirror in the car barn.
Just outside lies the property’s most whimsical feature. “A friend of mine said, ‘Put in a go-kart track!’” Todd Rosenthal recalls. He did. The track loops around the building, its start-finish line aligned with the home’s main axis, visible from multiple vantage points. “[Our son is] out there every day,” Todd says.
Henning’s larger challenge was to make the showroom concept livable; the space still needed to feel and function like an inviting family home. To balance the gleam of glass and metal, he introduced warmth through details: wide-plank hickory flooring, textured porcelain tiles in place of stone, wood cabinetry offsetting the precision of steel and glass. “We looked at a lot of things we like about car design,” he says.

Henning extended the gallery concept with marble-like porcelain flooring and inset linear LEDs that cast a soft, directional glow. A central turntable brings one of the Rosenthals’ prized cars into focus.
But instead of mimicking the elements directly, the architecture translates those ideas in an abstract way. The exterior layers white stucco with travertine-look porcelain tile and black-framed glass, giving the house its clean, linear rhythm. At the entry, narrow vertical fins evoke classic Range Rover vents. “Some people don’t care about cars,” Todd says. “Some people want to take them to the track, some just drive them daily. I could look at them all day.”
The kitchen continues the home’s clean-lined restraint. Done in a minimalist palette, the space has two islands—a utilitarian one in granite and a sculptural one in quartz. Distinct pendants define each zone, and the cabinetry’s textured finish adds contrast to the kitchen’s modern feel. Retractable corner doors open the space to the pool and outdoor living areas.

Todd and Sara’s private sanctuary unfolds beyond the glass ‘bridge’ on the other side of the entryway. The pod includes a study and an expansive en suite with his-and-hers vanities, a freestanding tub and an integrated sauna accessible from the shower. Vertical fin windows allow natural light to pour into the walk-in closets, maintaining the overall design vocabulary even in smaller spaces. Meanwhile, the children’s wing is on the second floor, above the main living areas, allowing everyone secluded corners.

“I equate projects to puzzles,” Henning says. “The clients give you the pieces, and we put the puzzle together.” This one, with its turntables and track lighting, racecourse and display bays, has all the pieces clicking neatly into place: a home where garages aren’t hidden but celebrated, and where even the most mechanical elements serve a sense of place.
