Sarasota School

The Sarasota School of Architecture, developed in the mid-20th century in Florida, emphasizes designs that respond to the local climate and environment. It features open floor plans, large windows, and overhangs to maximize natural light and airflow, reducing need for air conditioning. The style also incorporates clean lines, simple forms, and innovative construction techniques, blending aesthetic appeal with practicality. This approach aimed to create comfortable, energy-efficient homes suited to Florida’s warm weather, influencing modern residential architecture both regionally and nationally.
