Designed by a founding member of Sarasota School of Architecture, Victor Lundy, this 1956 Japanese garden-inspired structure is a sight to behold near the bayfront. Built for the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce, the structure features a Japanese blue glazed tile roof. Lundy wanted the blue tiles to reflect the nearby blue waters of Sarasota Bay.

About Sarasota

Sarasota is a Gulf Coast city in Florida with white quartz beaches, the Ringling estate, mid-century architecture and barrier islands.

Sarasota sits on Sarasota Bay on Florida's Gulf Coast, sheltered by a chain of barrier islands. John Ringling, of the circus family, made it his home and the winter base for his circus in the 1920s. His Venetian-style mansion, Ca' d'Zan, and an art museum stand beside the bay, with a circus museum on the grounds. Downtown has theatres, galleries and a Saturday farmers' market.
