MICRO-COTTA"

If the beauty is timeless, it should be made to last over time.

If the architectural detail and ornamenta-
tion called for-on your new building or
restoration project is of timeless beauty,
create (or re-create) it with Micro-cotta.
Micro-cotta is a lightweight, proprietary,
polymer-based composite concrete that
can be used to create the delicate relief
work, color, interior and exterior orna-
mentation and subtle patterning of terra-
cotta. The niolds and tooling for any shape

or detail you can imagine are derived
directly from your originals or blueprints,
reproducing them in detail.
Resisting the ravages of time.
Micro-cotta composite Concrete goes
beyond fine duplication of originals. It is
also resistant to fire and environmental
conditions. Inert pigments are used to
achieve a durablecolor match that will
last without yellowing or other color -
deviations. There is no surface glazing to
crack or delaminate.
Ready availability.means fast delivery
times, .
Molding technology and the proprietary
physical makeup of Micro-cotta make.
fast delivery times possible -. often within
a matter of days from prototype to the.
.Jlast finished part.

The secret of a successful architectural
practice is combining good design with
good financial management. Unfortu-
nately, many design firm principals find
themselves stretched thin trying to do
both-and not doing their best at either.
Harper and Shuman, Inc. can
help-with CFMS, the most compre-
hensive, fully integrated computer-
based financial management system for
architectural firms. CFMS was created
by, and specifically for, design profes-
sionals, and is sponsored by the Ameri-
can Institute of Architects.

*CFMS is a Registered Trademark jointly owned by Harper
and Shuman, Inc. and the American Institute of Architects
Service Corporation.

Harper and Shuman, Inc. has over 10
years of experience working with more
than 400 design firms throughout the
United States and Canada. The CFMS
package has been designed as an inte-

Harper and Shuman

and CFMS*
grated system that will provide for all
the financial management needs of
design firm practice-in project cost
control as well as general accounting.
CFMS'is supported through com-
prehensive documentation, systems
design and custom programming. On-
site consultation, in-house seminars,
classroom training sessions and phone-
in consultation are available from
Harper and Shuman's staff of skilled
financial management specialists.

Whether your firm is large or small,
Harper and Shuman has the right prod-
uct and service options to meet your
needs-from MICRO/CFMS software for
operating on in-house microcomputers
like the IBM PC or DEC Rainbow, to
CFMS software for DEC VAX or Prime.

EDITORIAL

I have been involved with the FA/AIA's various awards programs for
several years now. My involvement began rather modestly, mainly in
conjunction with publicizing the projects in FLORIDA ARCHITECT, but
since that time it has grown to a point of interaction with jury members
and gaining some insight into why certain projects are selected. I'm still
new enough at the whole process, however, to sit back and wonder how
juries can meet in other states, see only photographs and drawings of a
project, and unfailingly select the very finest designs.
It's more than just good insight on the part ofjury members. Criteria
for selection has a lot to do with it.
This year's design awards jury met in Boston and jury members
Norman Fletcher and Earl Flansburgh summed up their design criteria
very eloquently. Fletcher stated that, "Something has to be heightened
for [a project] to receive an award. Something overly simple or overly
exaggerated may be selected, but it has to work."
Flansburgh perceives design criteria somewhat differently. He
thinks that jury members "should be sure to give awards for the design
solution, and not just because the problem is unique."
Interesting. Not only is beauty in the eye of the beholder, but differ-
ent criteria are in the minds of different jurors. More interesting, however,
is that in my limited experience all the criteria I've seen exercised have
led to the same place. Awards for good design.
Since the road to good design is not always a smooth one, we prob-
ably should consider the means to the architectural end. We should
consider the problem as well as the result. Among the Design Award
winners presented in this issue of FA, for example, are a City Hall that
sits suspended over thin air because there was only a sliver of ground
available for a site. Faced with setback restrictions, there is a 21-story
condo on Tampa Bay that could not be built with its broad dimension
facing the water. The architect's solution to the situation still permitted
a large majority of the tenants a view of the Bay. In Jacksonville, an ap-
pealing new design for three of the city's utility buildings turned a ple-
bian kind of structure into something very distinguished.
In each of this year's winning projects, there seems to have been
an overriding goal on the part of the architect to give a humane quality
to the building, either through scale, siting, fabric or color. "Gaiety" and
"spirit" were two of the adjectives the jury used a lot to describe these
fourteen really fine designs.

Evans Group Wins "Detached Home of the
Year"
For the second time in three years the
Evans Group has earned a distinguished
Best-In-Show honor at the Aurora Awards
design competition. This year they won the
"Detached Home of the Year" for the de-
sign of the Villa Christina at Villa D'Este in
Deerfield Beach. In addition, the Orlando-
based architects and planners captured
one Grand Award and nine Merit Awards
to finish with a total of 11 awards recog-
nizing achievements in residential and

Survey Shows Design Firms Profits Falling
The 1984 Finanical Statistics Survey,
sponsored by Professional Services Man-
agement Journal (PSMJ) reveals the prof-
its of design firms are still falling. Accord-
ing to Atlanta management consultant Bill
Fanning who conducted the survey, the
survey found the median pre-tax profit for
design firms to be 2.6% of gross revenues,
down from 2.9% in 1982.
The chief factor contributing to this re-
sult is the continued rise in overhead rates.
The median overhead rate has now risen

non-residential design in 11 southeastern
states.
The "Detached Home of the Year", a
three-bedroom, 2/2 bath zero lot line patio
home with 2,102 square feet of living area,
was designed for Trendsetter Homes. The
$245,000 home features an open floor
plan oriented to a pool and several unus-
ual features such as eight-foot carved en-
try doors and a "good morning" room with
greenhouse solarium.
The Evans Group pulled in another
honor in August with the designation by

to 161.1% from 155% in 1982. This rate
has been showing a steady rise since the
inception of the surveys in 1980.
The survey also revealed that firms
with Computer Aided Design and Drafting
(CADD) capabilities are more profitable
than firms without this capability. Reve-
nues per employee are, on the average,
6% higher for CADD firms, and overhead
expenses are reduced due to better labor
utilization. The survey also found that
28% of the surveyed firms now have this
capability.

Builder magazine of its Sawyer Park town-
house development as "Project of the
Month." Builder is the official magazine of
the National Association of Home Builders
(NAHB). The 12-unit contemporary Victo-
rian townhouse project is situated in what
used to be the backyard of a 66-year-old
private residence in Vero Beach. It is the
first in-town luxury townhouse project for
Vero Beach and it offers a single floor plan
with 2,046 square feet of living space with
rooms on three levels.

Even with the overall downward trend,
some firms performed better than the av-
erage results. The firms that exceeded the
overall averages include architectural
firms, firms practicing in the southwestern
region of the country, and the firms whose
staff ranged in size from 21 to 100. Worse
than average results were reported by
firms from 201 to 500 total staff and firms
located in the midwest.

Banyan Manor Coconut Grove, Florida

Good Urban Architecture
On A Restricted Site and
A Modest Budget

This three-unit housing development
contains the maximum number of units
S and square footage allowed by code
within strict height and open space re-
strictions. The lot is very sensitive and
narrow and is tightly wedged between
two modest single family homes to the
north and south and lightly traveled
streets to the east and west. The need
for uniqueness and creativity in the
design and massing of the units was
imperative.
The resulting design called for three
typical units, two of which are attached
and the other connected only by an open
trellis. The units were designed to give
a feeling of spaciousness and to open
the interior spaces to the outside. The
interior spaces are stacked vertically with
the semi-private spaces on the second
and third floors. The use of low mainte-
nance materials and the simplicity of
construction were the owner's special
requirements.

One of the things that is rather nice
about this project is that it is a very simple
small scale series of buildings in which
the same design ideas are repeated in
different ways. Given the obviously mod-
est budget, a very handsome piece of
urban architecture was created. The cut-
outs on the exterior and the use of color
are very handsome." Earl Flansburgh

City Hall and Municipal Theatre Bayamon, Puerto Rico

An Ingenious Design For
An Airborne Building
The unusual site available for the con-
struction of a new City Hall called for an
innovative structural-architectural de-
sign. Various alternatives were tested for
feasibility and architectural expression,
and one exposing the steel trusses was
chosen for economical and dramatic rea-
sons. It was found that the deeper the
truss, the more efficient it would be, there-
fore, a frame was designed which was in-
tegrated with the building module. The
steel was exposed outside the window
wall to avoid fireproofing, although a row
of sprinklers was provided inside the
building next to the windows. The whole
building is carried by two exterior trusses
with steel girders spanning the 55 feet in
between the office space which is totally
free of columns. Steel was chosen for
economy and ease of fabrication and
erection.

"This is a project where a municipal
government has taken adversity and
turned it into an asset. The project had a
minimal amount of square footage to use
in terms of land, so air rights were used
to provide space. The building is a strong
powerful statement which links two sec-
tions of the community and in its expres-
sion it has a positive quality that one -a
hopes to find in a municipal building. The
building is reinforcing, strong, interesting
and clear in expression. The auditorium
is the detail that gives the entire build-
ing substantial human quality." Earl

Hicks Residence Boca Grande, Florida

Layered Terraces Create
A Setting for Art

This bayfront residence was designed 4.
for an artist who moved from the West
Indies to a remote island off the West -'
Coast of Florida. The client wanted to re-
tain a sense of openness and out-of-door
living in her new home. The client insisted
that the house and grounds were to func- -
tion well for frequent entertaining and also
as a setting for a growing collection of
painting and sculpture. ,e".
The building form is derived from the
view lines, sun angles, privacy control,
winter wind control and from the shape of
the site itself. With its pool acting as a
dominant linear element, the house is fo-
cused on the inlet connecting the bay to
the larger harbor beyond. The building is
basically a series of terraces which step
down and open to the bay. The main liv- Photos (c)Steven Brooke
ing area of the house is an enclosed por-
tion of the upper terrace. The floor directly
below this has the painting studio,
garage, and storage room. The separate 11
guest -,ouse, connected by a roof link,
opens onto a mid-level terrace.
As with an open seashell, the house
has hard protective outer walls contrast-
ing with the total openness of the oppo- iI[
site side. The forms of the layered terraces iI "
reflect the sense of movement on the
water. f

"The way this house orients itself to the
view creates a very dynamic geometry. .
This house has some overtones of some .r
of the best house design I've seen, in-
cluding dramatic cantilevers and a very
clean use of glass." Norman Fletcher

Jacksonville Electric Authority Church, Main and Water Street Substations

An Elegant Enclosure of -
Utilitarian Space

In the early 1980's, the Jacksonville
Electric Authority undertook a major pro-
gram for expanding and modernizing its
electrical distribution network. Three new
substations were required and the major
emphasis was placed on designing facili-
ties that would be environmentally sensi-
tive to their neighborhoods.
Each of the three buildings is one-story
high with walls enclosing transformer
yards, small switchgear buildings and
maneuvering areas for large utility trucks "
requiring access to major equipment.
The Water Street Substation combines
four disparate elements into a unified -
composition. The functional elements are
arranged compactly within a rectangular
enclosing. Wall columns extend upward
to support an open lattice of precast con-
crete beams. At the Church Street Station
a circular enclosing wall thirteen feet high
is placed in the center of the site, permit-
ting the development of small public
parks at the four corners. Textured ma-
sonry walls emphasize light and shadow
and also discourage vandalism. The
Main Street Substation is similar to that on
Water Street. Major determinants were [C '.. '
the turning radii for large vehicles and
minimizing the substation's visual impact
on its immediate environment.

"I think the architect has contributed
something to the neighborhood. What
might have been an eyesore has been
turned into something that is fun to walk
by and adds to the overall urban feeling of
the site." Paul Dietrich

The Townhomes of Blue Heron, Aquarina

Melbourne, Florida

A Geometry of Sloping
Roofs and Curved Forms

This project consists of 20 town-
homes, four per building in five buildings,
arranged in a U-shaped configuration on
a two-acre site within a 200-acre seaside
community. Much of the land is preserved
in its natural state. Nature walks meander
throughout the site. The townhomes fea-
ture cedar siding over solid block con-
struction. High pitched roofs have cedar
S shingles over cedar planking. All rooms
open onto cedar decks. Theexterior of the
S homes has been stained smoke gray to
blend well with the weathering of the shake
roofs.
The requirement in the project was to.
S create a private townhome neighborhood,
on a nicely wooded site compatible with
neighborhoods of garden apartments and
oceanfront mid-rise apartments. The re-
sulting plan called for a semi-circular stair-
case contained within the radius column
which ascends from the foyerto the sec-
ond floor gallery. Decks and balconies
extend from all rooms and square footage
ranges from 1,766 to 2,174 square feet per
home.

"The scale of this project is very ap-
pealing. The color scheme and roof treat-
ment is very sympathetic and the forms
and landscape are simple and hand-
some. The overall scale of house to site
works well." Norman Fletcher

Point Washington, Florida

A Planned Presence
For A Seaside Village

This small mixed use development in
the Florida Panhandle is a new vacation
resort of 350 dwellings of different types,
100-200 units of lodging, a retail center, a
conference facility and recreation com-
plex. The design intent of the program
was to generate an urban environment
similar to that of a small town of the period
prior to 1940. A study of towns throughout
the American South indicated that a com-
munity of genuine variety and authentic
character relies on public spaces (plazas
and streets) of specific size and charac-
ter. The architects have designed a Mas-
ter Plan and Zoning Code for the town
which provides a variety of public spaces
with a coherent character while allowing
buildings to be designed by many differ-
ent people. The Code has been tested
several times in university design studios
and has proven workable. It is now envi-
sioned that the town will be substantially
built in ten to fifteen years, depending on
economic conditions.

"The arrangement of open spaces has
been carefully thought through to give di-
versity to the neighborhoods and maxi-
mum access to the water, even though it
is a very small, informal community. De-
spite its size, this town has a presence."

Charles Wharton Johnson Pavilion

A Public Facility With
A Sense of Spirit
The City of Clearwater sponsored a de-
sign competition for a bandshell to act as
a spearhead for the revitalization of its
downtown area. In order to link the urban
park site with the civic buildings to the
east and the bay immediately to the west,
the architects wanted to create a visual
point of reference to be viewed from land
or water. The design was also to be un-
obstructive and sensitive to its context.
Coachman Park gently slopes from a
bluff at the eastern side down to the bay
on the west. By locating [he bandshell in
the southwestern corner of the site, the
architects preserved the existing fabric of
the park, maximizing audience areas and
views of the bay. To further bring out the
existing topography and create a natural
"bowl" effect, subtle berming within the
oval path was suggested. An airy, light
performing space was buffered from traf-
fic noises by trees and ancillary spaces
containing storage and restrooms.
The prominent site called for a strong
image. In plan, the form complements the
bandshell function by assuming the
shape of a "speaker." In elevation, the
evocative triangle shape recalls the
shape of old Florida houses to those on
land and a sailboat to people on the
water.

"Certainly the focus of the sparkling
little gem at the end of the bowl-shaped
amphitheatre is a very entertaining and
visually delightful accent. It's a public
facility with a lot of gaiety and spirit."

2600 Maitland Center Building Maitland, Florida

Offices Within A Grid
of Polished Aluminum

The program for this building required '
160,000 square feet of office space to be
constructed on a 10-acre site within a
suburban office park. The solution locates
the three-story building in the center of the PA
site with two entrances accessible to the .'
parking area. A system of pool, swales, V,
berms, walkways and landscaping sur-
round the site. The plan ofthe building is a
square, 250 feet on each side surround-
ing a three-story atrium at the center.
To reinforce the double entry state-
ment, a 3V2-story precast concrete wall
bisects the building beginning at one en-
trance and terminating at the other. A
water feature follows the wall through the
building.
Exterior curves, angles and planes are
formed with silver reflective glass panels Photos (c) Eric Oxendorf
set within a grid of polished aluminum
mullions. This grid is repeated on the sur-
face of the diagonal concrete wall.

"The contrast of materials is interesting
here and so is the contrast of form. The
overallscale of the wallis broken down by
the diagonal wall in the atrium. The use of FLOOR PLAN
the diagonal also defines both entrances -
and provides the element that linnks the

A T & T Operations Center Jacksonville, Florida

A Human Scale On The
Grand Scale

The required construction schedule
was a dominant factor in this project.
AT&T could allow only 11 months for the
entire design/build schedule.
The building complex is organized .
around a sloped glass pedestrian circu-
lation spine which links all separate build-
ings with a continuous environmentally
conditioned walkway at the ground level.
This walkway connects all vertical trans-
portation points. In addition, all buildings
are interconnected at the second and
third floors. The sloped glass system
steps up the facade of the computer sup-
port office building to note its special
usage.
The office space is designed as a con-
tinuous ribbon of floor area, approxi- Photos (c) Richard Payne
mately 72 feet in width with vistas
provided to either the outside or the
atrium. Four major atriums were created
for use as offices, cafeteria, reception
space and for visual upper level offices.
Fabric covered open office work stations
are provided for 1600 employees, with
built-in expansion in all areas.

"The architect has taken great pains to
achieve a human scale and character
within this very large building. The offices
are essentially low clusters of space con-
nected by a single corridor. Each one of
the office spaces has its own special
view. The interior, although spartan in
character, is very handsome." Earl

Avero House Restoration
St. Photios National Greek Shrine St. Augustine, Florida

A Shrine To Symbolize .
the Byzantine Heritage
The Avero House, built in St. Augustine
around 1749, is recognized as the site of
the earliest recorded regular worship ser-
vices of Greeks on the North American t .
continent, held in the year 1777. The A
existing structure was restored to its 1777
characteristics and detail and the one-
story section to the rear of the site was uti-
lized to create a shrine to symbolize the
Byzantine heritage of the Orthodox faith.
This building is the only Greek Orthodox
Shrine in the Western Hemisphere and it s
is on the National Register of Historic
Places.

The Miller House Siesta Key Sarasota, Florida

A Simple House That
Embraces a Lake

This lakefront house is built on an ex-
tremely small triangular site which fronts
on a water-fowl sanctuary. The clients
wanted a house that would work closely
with the site and would be open, light and
low in maintenance. Architecturally, the
building is a strong, simple, sculptural
form whose triangular plan is generated
from the shape of the site and the view
lines. With the small confining site, the
building extends to the setback lines on
all sides. For privacy, two sides of the
house are walled while the view side is
totally open to the lake with its mangrove ___
rookeries. The main space, the living
room, dining room and kitchen, is a large
double volume. A den and guest room
adjoin these rooms and above is the mas-
ter suite with its private deck. Penetrating
the form of the building is the wooden
deck which begins at the entry and ex-
tends out from the opposite side of the
house to form a dock in the lake. Visually,
the building seems to reach out and em-
brace the lake, completing its own form
with the wall of mangroves on the oppo-
site side of the inlet.

"I think of all the houses we looked at,
this one has the greatest amount of clarity
and simplicity, but with an inherent rich-
ness that is built into the design by com-
bining the outside deck with the interior
spaces. This is a very sophisticated and
handsome house." Earl Flansburgh

Luminaire Showroom and Offices Coral Gables, Florida

A Showcase of
Good Design

The owner of this furniture showroom
wanted a building created which would
showcase a philosophy of good design as
a way of life. The client asked that the
building be as transparent as possible,
so that the furnishings could provide
color and excitement.
A mutual belief, between architect and
client, in modular systems led to the
choice of a 50-inch module which is ex-
pressed on the facade and regulates all
proportions within the building. The lower
ceiling height (100") allows furniture to be
viewed at a residential scale. Washing
the interiors with soft, reflected light, a
central atrium and skylight create a light-
filled moment through which customers
move upstairs. For fashion shows, the 1
white steel stairway serves as a stage in
the center of the space. The south facade
setback underlines the visual and physi-
cal separation of the adjoining women's
boutique.

"The clarity of the exterior that says,
'come in and visit,' is what really gives this
building its strength. In addition, the
simple interior does not at all take away
from the objects on display which is the
rationale for doing a building of this kind."

Gilldorn Savings Association

A Distinguished Approach
To A Commercial Problem

Gilldorn Savings Association required
the construction of two modest facilities in
central Illinois. Each of these branches
contains a drive-in teller area, a com-
munity room accessible to the public
when the offices are closed, and future
expansion capabilities. The owner re-
quested that the buildings be highly
energy efficient and that their designs
respect the architectural traditions of
prehistoric earthwork constructed in the
central Illinois area.
Both facilities are constructed on
8 foot 8 inch by 40 foot modules with
carefully controlled daylighting. Paired
laminated timber beams clearspan the
interiors and bear on sandblasted, cast-
in-place concrete walls.
Daylighting was a major design deter-
minant for both facilities. High sidewall
windows and continuous clerestories dis-
tribute glare-free daylighting to interior
spaces. Natural wood ceilings and
beams are treated with a bleaching stain
to increase light reflectivity. Clerestory
overhangs block out direct sunlight dur-
ing the summer and permit penetration in
the winter. Earth berms protect the inter-
ior spaces from temperature extremes.

"I think the design of branch drive-in
banks can be pretty ordinary and uninter-
esting. Here, the total integration of the
building with the landscaping and the
sloped berms has done a very nice job of
solving a commercial kind of problem."

The Atrium on the Bayshore Tampa, Florida

A High Rise Atrium Soars
21 Stories

The Atrium is a highrise luxury condo-
minium on Tampa Bay. A2.5 acre heavily
wooded site on Bayshore Boulevard was
to be used to its maximum allowable
density of 50 units per acre to create a
highrise apartment. Stringent setback
constraints plus the desire to save trees
and take advantage of the water views
produced a very efficient sawtoothed
building footprint of six units per floor cre-
ating in the process a naturally ventilated
atrium space. The resulting 126 apart-
ments are situated on 21 floors.
The naturally ventilated atrium has a
positive airflow caused by the stack effect
of the skylight heated by the sun and the
large louver vents have created fantastic
cross-ventilation of the units allowing
apartment owners to virtually eliminate air
conditioning of their units much of the
year.

"This is, I think, a genius of a response -
to what can be a very standard highrise
problem concerning a narrow piece of
property and how to give many tenants a
water view. The architect has succeeded
in giving the maximum number of tenants
a view and instead of having a very
clumsy building rear, he has developed a
wonderful atrium." Norman Fletcher

New Plant Care System is Energy
Efficient
Aqua/Trends, of Boca Raton, has a
new line of automatic, foliage plant water-
ing systems for interiorscape, building
management and construction industry
use. These "Plant-Minders" are fully-auto-
mated, multi-plant central systems spe-
cially designed for watering interior and
patio potted plants. Although not intended
to replace human plant care, their purpose
is to reduce the time, effort and cost that
goes into the maintenance of decorative,
interior plantings in residential and com-
mercial applications.
The new line is the MIRAGE III Sys-
tem which waters all interior foliage auto-
matically through a central network incor-
porated into the framework of a building
during construction or renovation. Incon-
spicuous plastic tubing simply plugs into
receptacles provided at convenient loca-
tions along the walls of rooms and run to
nearby potted greenery... also outdoors
on terraces and patios. An adjustable
mini-valve at each plant provides pre-
cise, individual watering control. This
equipment is also capable of being tied
into a building's computerized energy
management or security systems.
Brochures and information can be
obtained from Aqua/Trends, Blair Build-
ing, 215 North Federal Highway, Boca
Raton, Florida 33432.

Low Maintenance Bathroom
Partitions Good for Schools
Santana's POLY-MAR HD partitions
are a possible solution to the architect's
toilet and shower partition needs. All pan-
els, doors and pilasters are fabricated
from solid polymer resins forming a solid
one-piece component. POLY-MAR does
not rust like metal, delaminate like plastic
partitions or absorb odors like marble.
There are no seams to come apart.
For the architect, Santana offers com-
plete design consultation with special em-
phasis on handicapped accessibility. Our
system can be easily adapted to meet the
specific layout requirements of building
codes in your area.
The special "Plasti-Glaze 280" self-
lubricating surface resists marking with
pens, pencils, cosmetics and ink markers
to discourage writers of graffiti. The parti-
tions never require paint and are virtually
maintenance free.
Contact local sales representatives
for more information.

New Bay Window Available from
Marvin Windows
Marvin Windows' new Sun Bay Win-
dow claims to collect more light than tra-
ditional bay and bow windows. Designed

The Sun Bay by Marvin Windows
with 90 degree angle flankers (side units)
and sloped glazing, the Sun Bay is ideal
for replacement, remodeling and new
construction projects where additional
sunlight is desired.
Energy-saving features of the Sun
Bay include insulating or optional tripane
insulating glass (three panes of glass with
two dead airspaces) on flankers and view
unit; the slope is available with one inch in-
sulated glass. Weatherstripping on the side
units virtually eliminates air infiltrations.
The sash, frame and seat board of the
Marvin Sun Bay are constructed of fine-
grained Ponderosa pine, chosen for its in-
sulating properties and the way it accepts
a stain or paint finish. The wood is treated
to protect it from rot and decay and an
additional low-maintenance exterior is an
available option.
For more information, write Marvin
Windows, Warroad, MN 56763.

New Roof Deck System from
Loadmaster
Vigorous activity in the construction
of outlet malls, the latest and fastest grow-
ing concept in discount merchandising,
has hit on an able ally in a roof deck system
employing expanded polystyrene (EPS)
insulation.

The Loadmaster Roof Deck system, a
dry installed system using modular com-
ponents, has been specified for several re-
cently erected outlet malls in Florida be-
cause of its ability to meet requirements for
fast, dependable, economical construc-
tion with long-term energy savings.
In Tampa, Architects McElvy, Jenne-
wein, Steffany, Howard, Inc. recently spe-
cified this roof deck system for the new
Bay Area Outlet Mall, a one-story, 330,000
square foot, "Y" shaped structure. The roof
deck was installed by American-Southern
Roof Deck Company of Tampa. Following
Loadmaster's recommended practices,
the builder first installed high tensile steel
sections as a structural base for the roof
deck assembly. Next, EPS board in two
layers of two inch thickness, a total of 1.3
million board feet, was placed overthe cor-
rugated steel. High density mineral board
was then installed and a four-ply fiberglass
BUR membrane roofing system was ap-
plied on top for weatherproofing.

Kohler Adds Two Spouts To
Faucet Line
Two new spouts, the Crescent and the
High Country, are now available for both
baths and lavatories from Kohler.
The Crescent Spout was designed to
expand the decorator's options. Its curved
shape is very elegant and fashionable, and
it is offered in five finishes, including pol-
ished chrome and gold, brushed chrome
and gold or polished brass with a baked
epoxy-coated finish.
For information, write Kohler, Co.,
Kohler, Wisconsin 53044.

LETTERS
Dear Editor:

In a 1971 issue of Florida Architect, a
profile was published on my office. As a
part of this profile, I wrote some aphorisms.
Perhaps some additions might interest
your readers.
MORE APHORISMS for ARCHITECTS
Quality is expensive .. and priceless.
When a desired commission is lost, the
ego of a true architect requires that he
mourn the lost client's misfortune.
Restraint is the greater part of beauty.
If we didn't want it pronounced ARCH-I-
TECH, why didn't we spell it ARK-I-TECT?
The question is often asked, "Are you
an architect?", the honest answer, "Some-
times."
We architects contending with roof leaks
are usually humbled to realize that water
runs downhill.

ABOUT LANDSCAPING
I saw a man clipping his hedge and wished
he had waited until the flowers had gone.
A geneticist spent his life trying to pro-
duce a watermelon without seeds. He fi-
nally succeeded only to learn there was
no way to reproduce the fruit.

OBSERVATIONS (UNSOLICITED) After
visiting the recently completed Center
For The Fine Arts in Miami designed by
Phillip Johnson.
Mr. Johnson and many of us who profess
to be architects have yet to learn that ar-
chitecture is not an art of regurgitation.
Mr. Johnson now remembers that smoke
rises. Incidentally, he should view the roof-
top air conditioning units from the adjacent
expressway.
Mr. Johnson would be an ideal client. He
is knowledgeable, appreciative, articulate
and able to afford any building he desires.

The Journal has excellent content,
layout, photographs, reproduction, etc.
Congratulations to you and your staff.

Sincerely,
Alfred Browning Parker, FAIA

Take A Closer LookAt

Why Your Competition Builds

With Natural Gas.

Availability.
From Pensacola to Miami, natural
gas is found in more new homes
and developments than ever
before. Take a closer look at the
availability of natural gas. You'll
find a future supply on which you
can build. And sell. And profit.

Marketability.
People moving to Florida
depended on natural gas in their
old home and prefer it in a new
home. Cleanliness, low mainte-
nance and low operating costs are
qualities that every homebuyer
appreciates.

Gas: America's Best Energy Value

Profitability.
A new home buyer is willing to
pay more for an energy efficient
natural gas house. That means
better homes and better profits.

VIEWPOINT

KIDS CREATING A WORLD -

AND THEMSELVES WITH BLOCKS
Victoria Stuart

First they cheer a unison shout that
lights up their faces with the ligntning-flash
joy that only children know.
Then they rush to the block box and
dive in with abandon, P's and Q's flying
out over their shoulders to become castles
and towers and cities and houses and
roads to imagination.
Blocks, the kids call them. The profes-
sor, who studies the kids and the blocks,
calls them "3-dimensional manipulables,"
which doesn't make them any less fun for
the kids. Every day during recess here at
Miami's West Laboratory Kindergarten
and Elementary School, kingdoms rise
and fall, all made of blocks.
"Blocks are among the most impor-
tant toys of an inventive nature available to
children," says the professor, Dr. Eugene
Provenzo, Jr., who teaches educational
psychology at the University of Miami.
"They allow children to create, rather
than use."
Provenzo is co-author of The Com-
plete Block Book, the first book on the
history and educational significance of
blocks. The Complete Block Book is pub-
lished by Syracuse University Press.
"Blocks, more than any other toy, rep-
resent what's in a child's mind, whether
it's a "Star Wars" fantasy or a medieval
castle," Provenzo said.
"Literally, they allow the child to play
God, to create, experiment, add and sub-
tract, and try again. They learn indepen-
dence, and since most children react in
response to the things an adult world im-
poses on them, this can be critically
important."
Linda likes to skate on them. "D"
blocks are the best for this, she says, be-
cause they slide over the carpet better.
Paul has "hunerds and hunerds of
blocks at home."
Kim likes to build "whatever-a build-
ing office or a kingdom, it doesn't matter,
it's just fun."
Lance just wants to know if he can
help the others build with blocks.
They work by sixes, by twos or by
themselves, and they are very serious
about what they do. For Joey, choosing
the best block to represent a smokestack
on "the most biggest ship I ever builded"
can take long minutes of intense concen-
tration, and the testing of possible candi-
dates by size, weight, shape and esthetic
value.
When the masterwork is complete,
Joey stands back, arms folded, consider-
ing the final structure. His expression
is as serious as any masterbuilder sur-

veying the framework for a 70-story sky-
scraper, but slowly, a smile of pride and
satisfaction spreads over his face and he
nods imperceptibly, as God might have
on the Seventh Day.
Sometimes, the children won't even
know what they're building until it's fin-
ished, and sometimes even then they can
only guess. Whether it's a cathedral, a
ship, a moat, a jungle, a launching plat-
form, an elevated mass transit system, a
city, or an entire kingdom, it doesn't matter.
What they like about it so much is just doing
it. The structure doesn't have to be any-
thing in particular, or be useful and justify
itself. Those are adult notions. These are
kids.
Yet what parents and teachers like is
that the children are not only playing; they
are learning.
Block-play can help improve a child's
sensory, motor and intellectual develop-
ment, the authors say.
"Children play with blocks because it
is fun; they don't realize that they are learn-
ing. The learning comes from spontaneous
activities," said Arlene Brett, University of
Miami professor of early childhood edu-
cation and co-author of the book.
Playing with blocks, Brett says, teaches
children pre-reading skills through the rec-
ognition of the letters painted on the blocks,
mathematics through counting and shape-
building, and even the laws of physics as
children learn that a triangle can't stand
up on its pointed end.
But the only way to initially stimulate a
child's interest in blocks is to personally
introduce him or her to a set of them.
"They don't advertise very well on tele-
vision," Provenzo explains. "Small, plain,
wooden squares and triangles just can't
compete visually with a G. I. Joe action ad-
venture series or 'Star Wars' spaceships.
But blocks have a timeless quality that chil-
dren instinctively recognize, and the make-
believe element is very strong. For ex-
ample, G. I. Joe can only be G. I. Joe, and
R2D2 can only be R2D2, but a block can
be anything and that, to children, is very
exciting."
It was Frederick Froebel, the founder
of the kindergarten movement in the 19th
century, who initiated the use of blocks as
a standard part of school curriculum, In
the early 1920's Maria Montessori followed
suit in her unique nursery and elementary
schools. Today, a set of blocks whether
they are traditional alphabet type, bristle
blocks, sophisticated Legos or giant Su-
perblocks can be found in almost every
elementary and pre-school classroom.

"Playing with blocks can also teach
children verbal interaction, sharing, organi-
zation a lot more skills than even a video
game," Provenzo said, "because they
learn how to concentrate, create, and they
receive recognition of an accomplishment."
Video-game enthusiasts maintain that
these games develop similar skills in chil-
dren. "But blocks are three-dimensional in-
stead of two-dimensional," Povenzo points
out, "and the range of activities possible
with blocks is much more diverse and com-
plex. We live in a three-dimensional world,
and the opportunity to learn, manipulate
and master that reality is critical."
The architect Frank Lloyd Wright, in
nis autobiography, says building blocks
were so important in his childhood that
most of his designs, including the Imperial
Palace Hotel in Tokyo and Chicago's Mid-
way Gardens, can be reconstructed in de-
tail with children's building blocks.
Plaio regarded play as "the means to
test the limits of the universe," and an es-
sential part of the entire human experi-
ence, not only childhood.
Recently, however, blocks have either
been ignored or demoted to a minor role in
early childhood education, according to
Brett. "Lately ... teachers are concerned
with improving students' mathematic and
science skills at an early age," she says.
"Play has been de-emphasized, but it is
an important factor in children's develop-
ment, and blocks have a lot of potential in
this area."
Provenzo says, "The almost total ex-
clusion of block-building activities from the
world of adolescents, young adults and
adults mean that we are ignoring a very
important area of development."
A set of blocks on an executive's desk
could be "therapeutic, even soothing as a
sort of 'fidget bead,' and architects and
designers could use blocks to lay out their
designs in three dimensions."
Almost everyone has experienced
building with blocks, but strangely, almost
no one admits it after age seven. "Aw, it's
baby stuff," said one block-jaded eight-
year-old, although he shyly admitted to still
owning a well-used set of Legos "in a se-
cret place" in his closet at home.
But ask young children what their fa-
vorite toy is, and the answer-sometimes
shouted for sheer joy is unanimous:
Blocks.
Eager to start all over again, the chil-
dren gather into a circle and rush head-
long into their creations, yelling and laugh-
ingand kicking the pieces to the four
corners of the room.
