On Sarasota High School
"The second Sarasota High School was a move from clear form, from clear structure, from lineal structural elements defining space, to the organization of planes in space. It depends much more on the space and the handling of light, which really meant planes rather than linear elements, which in turn commenced my investigations into scale… I'm affected by everything I see. I make no bones about it. I haven't invented anything in my life. For instance, the entrance to the Sarasota High School can be traced directly to Corbusier's High Court Building in Chandigarh."
