Woodsong
The Woodsong House remains a hidden jewel amongst the lush forests of Coconut Grove, FL. Designed and built by Alfred Browning Parker in the 1960s, the house is uniquely programmed and beautifully connected. This scale model is meticulously crafted entirely from mahogany wood.
Three pavilions anchor the house, with each serving a different function. Connecting the pavilions is a covered, meandering swimming pool and walkway. Wood batons layer the organic shapes of the exterior. In order to complete such an intricate and complicated model, a healthy balance of both man and machine oriented techniques was critical.
The finished replica was selected from a group of finalists to be prominently displayed in the
Alfred Browning Parker Architecture exhibit at the History Miami Museum.
The actual Woodsong House was recently sold in 2017, providing an up-to-date view into the project.
