About The Florida Five
The Florida Five is a group of five Florida-based architects—Albert Alphonso, Rene Gonzalez, Scott Hughes, Chad Oppenheim and Guy Peterson—that has teamed up in the spirit of The New York Five and the group’s common allegiance to a pure form of architectural modernism that harkened back to the work of Le Corbusier. The goal of The Florida Five is to bring the concept of modern design to the attention of Florida residents, particularly in the realm of residential design. These five architects participate in joint presentations to show examples of their recent work that offers alternatives to the architectural styles imposed upon Florida residents by developers. Each member of The Florida Five designs with a modernist’s vocabulary and has been awarded AIA Awards of Excellence.
