Sarasota Through the Eyes of One of Its Most Outspoken Architects
The Florida city would be a much different place without Tim Seibert and the Sarasota School of Architecture.
Picture a one-story wooden house shaped more or less like a box, situated along a Florida canal. Its living space opens to the outside, with wide glass doors, louvered blinds, and a glass roof covering an unadorned grass patio. Basically, Frank Lloyd Wright goes to the beach.
While that simple home on Siesta Key near Sarasota no longer exists, its designer, and one of the original members of the Sarasota School of Architecture, is very much around.
