This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
Having completed his architectural studies in 1948, Paul Rudolph travelled throughout Europe until the summer of 1949 when the architect Ralph Twitchell offered him a full partnership.
Rudolph designed Leavengood House in Florida in 1951, in collaboration with Twitchell, focusing on the relationship between architecture and its surroundings (a central tenet of the ‘Sarasota Style’ with which both were later associated).
