Salt Spring was designed and built using German standards that meet hurricane codes of South Florida. Walls are concrete cladding over 2.5-inch interior interlocking block plates from Greek manufacturer, YTONG. This fireproof material provides strength and insulation ideal for warm, tropical climates. The peaked roofs of Salt Spring are slate grey Canadian shingles with copper guttering imported from Germany. Interior ceilings are vaulted with pressure treated timber, and superior grade plywood imported from Canada. German-made steel beams and cables add stylistic effect while ensuring structural integrity to the roof. Also imported from Europe are the custom-made aluminum windows and doors, with glass panes that are thicker and denser than other glass. All these ensure incredible resistance to weather elements. Interior floor tiles, imported from the Dominican Republic, are made of limestone. Laid in varying sizes and angles, this natural stone tile unites all rooms of the villa.
