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.

Seibert Architects Awarded Honor Award

Seibert Architects is pleased to announce that the AIA Florida Gulfcoast has awarded our firm with the Honor Award for Architecture Historic Preservation for the Rees-Schulaner Residence.

Seibert Architects working closely with Interior Designer Seth Schulaner, provided the restoration which focused on reinvigorating the original finishes and the introduction of modern conveniences which reinforced the original design's enduring value.

Strong indoor-to-outdoor connections are emphasized, along with the expression of structural systems and use of local standardized materials, which include stacked masonry units and regionally milled lumber and timbers.

This home has not only withstood the test of time, but continues to be relevant in today's world of environmental consciousness.
