Шаблон:Infobox person Alfred Browning Parker, FAIA (September 24, 1916 – March 11, 2011) was a Modernist architect who is one of the best-known post World War II residential architects. He gained fame for his highly published modern houses in the region around Miami, Florida. He was born in Boston, MA and moved to Miami when he was eight years old.[1] Parker graduated from the University of Florida in 1939 with a degree in Architecture.[2] Influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright but with regional touches, Parker's designs have been published in many magazines such as House Beautiful, as well as in companion books.

Parker began his practice in Miami in 1946.[3] He experimented with lower cost housing, included the "Tropex-pansible Home",[4] which was constructed with high quality but modular parts.

Alfred Browning Parker designed well over 500 projects in his 60-year career. Most notable were his own homes, especially the homes he designed for himself on Royal Road and in Gables Estates (both recognized as Pace Setters by House Beautiful magazine[5]), as well as the home he called Woodsong, his mother's Jewel in the Treetop home, and the demolished Alliance Machine Company building (all in Coconut Grove), plus the Hope Lutheran Church on Bird Road, the General Capital Corporation building on NW 54th Street, Miamarina ("remuddled" into a Hard Rock Café on the Bay) and Temple Beth El in West Palm Beach.[6]

Other works include the renovation of the Coconut Grove Playhouse (1954).[7][8]

In 1952 he designed the George Washington Carver Middle School.[9] Parker also served as a professor emeritus at the University of Florida School of Architecture.

The University of Florida is the repository of the architectural papers and drawings of Parker.[10] In 2008 the University of Florida announced the creation of the Alfred Browning Parker Architecture Archives Endowment to support and strengthen this effort to preserve the architectural history of Florida.[11]
