Revere Quality Institute House, Modern architecture house in Sarasota, United States.

The Revere Quality House on Siesta Key is a single-story, flat-roofed residence of about 1,000 square feet, built almost entirely of concrete and glass. A low roof, under eight and a half feet high, rests on steel perimeter poles and overhangs the walls for shade, extending at one end as a carport. Sliding glass doors open onto patios, and a roof opening lights a screened porch with grass inside.

The residence was built in 1948 through a partnership between architects Paul Rudolph and Ralph Twitchell. It was later designated as a National Register of Historic Places landmark in Florida.

The house belongs to the Sarasota School of Architecture, the postwar Florida movement that fitted modernist design to a subtropical climate. Its name comes from the Revere Quality Institute, a consortium of the Revere Copper Company, Architectural Forum and selected architects that built prototype homes in 1948. The copper-hooded fireplace supplied by Revere Copper and Brass marks that link.

The house is located on Siesta Key and features natural ventilation systems with deep overhangs designed for Florida's intense sun and humid conditions. Plan your visit for early morning or late afternoon when the location is more comfortable to explore.

During its opening year, the experimental house attracted more than 16000 visitors who came to tour the property. It was originally planned as one of eight similar residences to be built across the country.
