Latitude modernism

The sun crosses our meridian at noon. Everything else is design.

Meridian designs residences, waterfront structures, and cultural rooms for South Florida: openings sized to sun angles, plans organized around breeze, structure that treats storms as a fact and not a fear. The lineage is tropical modernism and the Sarasota School; the practice is measurement.
