I am in a Physics class (i am a senior in highschool) and we have been asked to create a building plan for a house in florida. This isnt a super-fancy project, but the more details provided, the better. So far have agreed that the square footage should be around 2400 feet. So if you guys have any ideas, they would be welcomed! thanks

Bungalow with big kitchen/eating area facing the W. Definitely a veranda and/or closed-in porches/terraces in different directions.For example a veranda facing SW but a closed-in terrace towards the SE.
Living room would be best SE.
Garage built with direct access to kitchen. And 3 bedrooms is a must since there will always be visitors!

I have several family members who live in Florida. A common house design centers around the outdoors with sliders in bedrooms that spill out into the back yard where the pool and patio area is. Outdoor kitchens. An outdoor shower. Single level. Tile floors. A master bedroom suite on one side of the house with guest rooms on the other side of the house and living/kitchen between the two. Open floor plan for the kitchen/living room. Storage closets. Luxury bathrooms. Citrus gardens. Stucco, not wood exterior. Hurricane shutters. Solar panels.
Good luck with your Physics project.
