    UC Irvine Journal for Learning through the Arts Title Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County Civic School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1479d3wp Journal Journal for Learning through the Arts, 9(1) Author Paley, Nicholas B. Publication Date 2013 DOI 10.21977/D9912643 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Can Architects Help Transform Public Education? What the Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) Teaches Us Author: Nicholas Paley Graduate School of Education George Washington University Washington, DC 20052 [email protected] Word Count: 10,270 Abstract: The Sarasota County School Building Program (1955-1960) is revisited through a detailed examination of how architects and educators collaborated to design an innovative group of public schools that provided opportunities for the transformation of learning space. This multi-dimensioned examination is grounded in a historical contextualization of the school building program, in visual and discursive archival analysis related to three of the schools considered especially notable, and in the integration of contemporary voices of some of the teachers, students, and educational employees who worked in these schools. A concluding section discusses four key lessons of this artistic-educational collaboration that might be fruitful for educators to ponder as they seek to create the kinds of community-based learning environments that optimize students’ educational experiences. Introduction From 1955-1960, one of the most remarkable public school building programs in the history of American education took place in Sarasota, Florida. In less than a decade, projects for nine new elementary and secondary schools or additions were commissioned, designed, and constructed --and almost immediately--were being acclaimed as some of the most exciting and varied new schools being built anywhere.

  • El Dibujo. Primera Construcción De La Arquitectura De Paul Rudolph Drawing
    67 VLC arquitectura volume 6 issue 1 El dibujo. Primera construcción de la arquitectura de Paul Rudolph Drawing. The first construction of Paul Rudolph’s architecture Noelia Cervero Sánchez Received 2018.11.14 Universidad de Zaragoza. [email protected] Accepted 2019.03.05 To cite this article: Cervero Sánchez, Noelia. “Drawing. The first construction of Paul Rudolph’s architecture”. VLC arquitectura Vol. 6, Issue 1 (April 2019): 67-95. ISSN: 2341-3050. https://doi.org/10.4995/vlc.2019.10967 Resumen: El arquitecto americano Paul Rudolph (1918-1997) concede al dibujo un papel central en su proceso creativo, que responde a una concepción altamente emocional de la arquitectura. Durante su formación y sus primeros años de trabajo, adquiere un tipo de representación que le permite transmitir una visión personal del proyecto. Su constante inquietud por la superación del estilo internacional, parte de seis factores determinantes: emplazamiento, condiciones naturales, materiales, función, psicología del espacio y espíritu de la época, que le guían en la búsqueda de respuestas y marcan su obra hasta finales de los años sesenta, cuando alcanza su madurez creativa. Tomando el dibujo como eje de la investigación, se analiza cómo intervienen estos factores en sus proyectos residenciales en Florida, cuya tectónica concibe desde la unidad espacial; en sus proyectos de vivienda colectiva, cuya componente social orienta en agrupaciones modulares urbanas; y en sus proyectos de escala monumental, cuya materialidad imagina y define con precisión. En todos ellos, las decisiones espaciales y constructivas están tan íntimamente relacionadas con su método de representación, que establecen un paralelismo constante entre dibujar y construir.

  • History of the Siesta and Nokomis Beach Pavilions
    Siesta and Nokomis Beach Pavilions Historic Context Sarasota's barrier islands, or keys, have attracted human habitation for centuries. Current traffic congestion and full parking lots at any of the keys' beaches on a sunny day attests to their continuing popularity as places of habitation and recreation. Archeological sites on Siesta and Casey Key reveal evidence of human long before white settlers arrived. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, these islands were sparsely inhabited, sometimes by fishermen who caught fish for sale in local markets and to passing vessels. Factors that contributed to sparse settlement on the barrier islands were the lack of arable farmland, lack of bridge access from the mainland, and mosquitoes. From the 1800s to well into the 1900s, Siesta Key was known by a variety of names, including "Little Sarasota Key" and "Sarasota Key." The formation of the Siesta Land Company in 1907 by Harry Higel, Captain Louis Roberts (who had opened Roberts Hotel the previous year) and E.M. Arbogast marked the first attempt to develop the key. On the north end of the key, the Company platted "Siesta on the Gulf," 1 dredged bayous, and built docks. Harry Higel operated the Siesta Post Office and built the Higelhurst Hotel. Few people moved to the key, however, (the 1910 US census listed thirty-one residents) and not until the first bridge opened in 19172 did the advertising effort result in increased use of the beaches by Sarasota residents and tourists. The name "Siesta" gradually came to be applied to the whole key and by 1952 it was officially Siesta Key.

    Coastal Architecture Reinterpreting Florida Modern Dan J Johnson I 2017 I Masters of Architecture I Chair: Martin Gold Co-Chair: Guy Peterson Contents Introduction 1 Looking to the past 3 Current Advancements 27 Embracing Nature 39 Pursuit 81 Local Context 87 Master Plan Intervention 97 Neighborhood Intervention 109 Bibliography 154 Illustration Credits 155 Introduction Looking to the Past Current Advancements Embracing Nature Pursuit Local Context Master Plan Intervention Neighborhood Intervention Can architecture of the 21st Century employ methods for passive climate control used during the early Florida Modern movement and can these methods help define how our architecture participates within Florida’s coastal environment? The energy efficient materials and mechanical systems used in our architecture today are important to sustainability and a reduction in our use of fossil fuels. As architecture has moved towards a climate controlled, super insulated dwelling, one may argue that inhabitants have begun to lose their connection with the exterior environment. The early modern architecture designed to exist in Florida’s tropical climate remained decidedly connected to the exterior environment. Mid-Century modern structures were designed to be open to elements and remain comfortable year around without mechanical climate control. The aspiration of this research is to address the disparity between the constrained energy efficient buildings of today and the environmental connections found within early Florida Modern architecture. A case study of one of the earliest forms of architecture known to exist in Florida, the Seminole Indian chickee hut, will be conducted. Exploring the design principles used in this early structure will expose the basic features needed to inhabit the tropical climate of Florida.

In the 1940s and '50s. Twitchell and Rudolph, as partners and then individuals, set local architecture on a path of revolution and evolution that continues to this day, as Mediterranean Revival buildings battle contemporary structures for dominance in the skyline. "We're in this big development period, and it's useful to talk around what are we up to, and put it in the context of time," says Joe King, a forum panelist and co-author of "Paul Rudolph: The Florida Houses." "It's on everybody's mind. Architecture matters here." But when you look at the high-rises going up downtown, it's apparent that the developers' minds are in different places.
