Four Florida Moderns allows readers to join the conversation of a mature quartet of architects who strive to create works appropriate to their place and time. It beautifully illustrates the power and importance of the modern movement's encounter with Florida's contemporary lifestyle as it evolved in a place of strong light, challenging climate, and sublime horizon., [A]n experiential visual and written tour of a thoughtfully curated review of architectural projects designed by four of Florida's new masters of modern architecture....beautifully written essays add a level of contextual understanding to the works of the four architects that pictures alone simply cannot convey....I highly recommend this book to architecture and design students, enthusiasts, and to all who are seeking a fountain of inspiration., If you think that Florida architecture is a mishmash of Mediterranean, Art Deco and Bungalow-style architecture with a splash of Caribbean color, then Four Florida Moderns by Saxon Henry will show you in colorful detail just how wrong you are., "This impressive gathering is amply supplemented by a series of essays from some of the country's biggest names in design, as well as extensive architect Q&Ars"s conducted by the book's author, Saxon Henry.", The architecture of Alfonso, Gonzales, Oppenheim, and Peterson testifies to the fact that modern architecture is not a style but a way of life. In their work, modernism evolves into a lyrical language....The buildings exist in harmony with their site and climate, mutating the tradition of modern into a melodic relationship between architecture and nature., In lush, striking photos, it highlights the work of four native architects, all of whom are acutely aware of the nature of the tropics and the romanticism of its qualities.

Synopsis
A colorful survey explores the diverse styles of the arbiters of modernism in Florida. As the offspring of modernism's founders, Alfonso, González, Oppenheim, and Peterson have embraced the movement and imbued it with their own flair, producing an array of architectural styles and statements in Florida today. This book explores each architect's repertoire, examines their collective bond to modernist traditions, and uncovers their unique design approaches., Alberto Alfonso, René González, Chad Oppenheim, and Guy Peterson--The Florida Four--are making a mark for themselves in contemporary architectural circles, infusing modernist traditions with their own flair. Practitioners of modernism in Florida--or, more accurately, tropical modernism--they are producing noteworthy works that display their commitment to distinctive regionalism. This book is the first to showcase their rich and varied repertoires. Each of the four architects has a unique take on modernism, resulting in four very different aesthetic approaches. From airports, medical facilities, and museums to open-air chapels, waterfront homes, and condominium complexes, their designs are fascinating for both their rootedness in modernist ideals and their dramatically different interpretations of it. More than 300 vibrant, full-color photographs offer a survey of work by each of the architects. At once a striking visual tour and a thoughtful examination, Four Florida Moderns treats readers to the rich and innovative styles of tropical modernism as conceived by four trailblazing architects., Each of the four architects has a unique take on modernism, resulting in four very different aesthetic approaches.
