Editorial Reviews
Review
"This excellent book makes a strong case for a renewed appreciation of regional modernism."
-- Erika Belsey, Art New England
Product Description
Foreword by Michael Sorkin
Introduction by Richard Guy Wilson
Inflected by local climate, construction practices, regional culture, and Florida lifestyle, the work of the Sarasota school of architecture marks a high point in the development of regional modernism in American architecture.
Although the Sarasota school wasn't a consciously organized movement, it was an important chapter in American modernism that, unlike the earlier Bay Area school and Chicago school, has received little study or published scholarly treatment. John Howey provides the first solid documentation of the Sarasota group's designs and theories. He has interviewed all of the surviving architects and original clients and has included a rich archive of photographs by Ezra Stoller, Alexandra Georges, and others.
