Sarasota International Office Park, Sarasota, Florida

THE NEW OFFICE AND OFFICE-WAREHOUSE CONDOMINIUM
for Fruitville Partners, at the Sarasota
International Office Park, Sarasota, Florida was
designed as a speculative three building complex
of two, single story office condominium
buildings composing a total of 19,600 square
divided into sixteen similar office suites and a
one story office-warehouse condominium building
of 13,500 square feet with nine almost identical
units. A Mediterranean aesthetic, with minimum
decoration located strategically for maximum
effect, coupled with an entrance tower attached
to the smaller 6,000 square foot office building
at the center of the three building grouping,
helps compose the interstitial spaces between
the buildings as a courtyard, rather than
fomenting an austere parking lot. Two smaller
courtyards are articulated in the large 13,450
square foot, twelve suite office building,
allowing light to access every occupied space of
this building.
Each of the occupied spaces including offices
and conference rooms (except two offices and a
conference room of one of the sixteen suites)
are day lit with a minimum twenty square feet of
green tinted laminated glazing in deep green
colored storefront framing; the office portion
of the office warehouse suites is day lit at the
reception area and office; the rear warehouse is
has translucent panel day lighting. In addition
to the courtyard composition of the three
buildings, two smaller courtyards articulated
the massing of the large 13,450 square foot, 12
suite office building, allowing daylight to
access every office of this building.
The aesthetic utilized engages a very simple but
clearly composed building geometry. High sloped
barrel tiled roofs accentuate the tower and
exterior entry features of each building; while
the main of the office building volumes are
roofed with a high reflectance, low slope PVC
roof membrane. The office warehouse building has
a white, low slope structural metal roof. The
office buildings feature concrete and masonry
walls; the roof structure is composed of
structural steel and open web steel joist roof
framing with light gauge steel deck. The office
warehouse building walls and roof are light
gauge steel framing and sheathing, supported by
a structural steel moment frame. All of the
building walls and roofs are fully insulated at
the exterior perimeter; all spaces, including
unused attic area, are a part of the insulated
envelope. The each of the office buildings
suites are individually air conditioned with
high efficiency roof top units; the offices of
each of the office warehouse units is cooled
with small split (air handler/condenser) units.
