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.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEach 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.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMore 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, \u003ci\u003eFour Florida Moderns\u003c\/i\u003e treats readers to the rich and innovative styles of tropical modernism as conceived by four trailblazing architects.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                    \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSaxon Henry\u003c\/b\u003e has written for a variety of national publications, including \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eInterior Design\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRobb Report\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTraditional Home\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eModernism Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHome Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBetter Homes \u0026amp; Gardens\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWoman’s Day\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCountry Home\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLatitudes\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eCoastal Living\u003c\/i\u003e.
