Seibert Architects Awarded Merit Award
Seibert Architects is pleased to announce receiving a Merit Award for Architecture Historic Preservation for the 42nd Street Residence, from the AIA Gulfcoast Chapter.
This house was designed in 1960 by William Rupp, and over the years experienced a series of insensitive renovations and additions. It was initially designed to embrace prevailing breezes, have abundant natural light and provide privacy by the use of garden walls and strategically placed windows. This concept has been maintained throughout the renovation. The 1960's "low tech" systems have been supplemented with high efficiency air conditioning units, a gas tankless hot water heater and either impact resistant glass or impact panels for severe storm protection.
