"West Wind", the magnificent residence created by New York architect Toshiko Mori, former architecture department chair
at Harvard, is situated on north Casey Key, an eight mile island with fewer than 400 single family homes, a hidden gem
just south of Sarasota. The modern glass dwelling is a rectangular structure elevated on pilings to capture water views of
both the Gulf of Mexico and Little Sarasota Bay. The illustrious architect James Carpenter designed a dichroic glass prism
which diffuses daylight from clerestory windows into a spectrum of colors that shift with the viewing angle to reflect subtle
nuances in the center of the house during daylight. A two-bedroom guest house provides plenty of accommodations for
large gatherings. The ambience of this extraordinary estate is breathtaking.
