Historic "Woodsong" Home In Coconut Grove Designed By Legendary Architect Alfred Browning Parker Sells For $4.2 Million

The famed “Woodsong” home at 3003 Seminole Street in Miami’s hot Coconut Grove neighborhood has sold for $4.2 million. Featuring a stunning tropical modern design, surrounded by lush vegetation and a fresh-water pond, this home is truly one-of-a-kind. The buyer Pamela Day, developer and founder of Crimson Holdings, now owns a one-of-a-kind home that was built, and lived-in, by one of Miami's most iconic architects, Alfred Browning Parker. Known for his environmentally sensitive designs, this tropical modern home is one of his few remaining masterpieces and is affectionately named "Woodsong" as it is engulfed in mahogany wood, both inside and out. Compass represented both sides of the deal with Karina Reyes represented the seller Hans Feringa and Monique Feringa and Megan Probst represented the buyer.

The uniquely designed “Woodsong” home is made up of three distinct "pods" which are connected by an exterior breezeway featuring a 90-foot lazy river runs throughout the property. The backyard contains a sauna and a swimmable, freshwater pond.

The 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom, 2,600 square foot house is clad with solid Honduran mahogany, a valuable, high quality, durable wood that is one of the only genuine mahogany species that is grown today.

As an ardent art collector and owner of multiple real estate assets in South Florida, Day's immediate connection to Woodsong was profound, perceiving it as a true work of art. Despite her extensive experience as a developer spanning over two decades, Day has no intention of altering Woodsong. Instead, she envisions herself as a guardian of the property, committed to preserving the architectural significance and original vision of Alfred Browning Parker, the esteemed architect behind Woodsong. Day regards it as Parker's magnum opus and aims to showcase it as such, carrying forward his legacy.

Iconic Swiss Brands Hublot and Nespresso Join Forces To Reveal Big Bang Made From Recycled Nespresso Capsules

Hublot and Nespresso, two Swiss icons, have joined forces to reveal a fusion of innovation and sustainability with the creation of a Big Bang timepiece based on recycling and circularity. The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin is the first watch to be made using recycled Nespresso aluminum capsules and coffee grounds.

As part of its Second Life initiatives over the last seven years, Nespresso has partnered with prestigious Swiss brands to create new products from used aluminum capsules. In a world’s first, Hublot’s and Nespresso have transformed the used coffee grounds from the capsules into watch straps; the recycled aluminum fused with the aluminum capsules becomes the case, the bezel, the crown and the pusher.

The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin shares the values of innovation, excellence and sustainability, which are at the core of both brands. Founded in 1980, Hublot is renowned for its Art of Fusion, developing new alloys, materials and composites, pushing the boundaries of different materials and placing rubber at the heart of the watchmaking industry by using it for its straps.

Since 1986, Nespresso has not only revolutionized the Art of Coffee with its portioned system that perfectly blends precision with an unforgettable taste, but has also added even greater value with its recycling system, designed in 1991, that separates the aluminum from the coffee grounds, enabling each component to be repurposed. And that’s how a coffee capsule can now become a watch, from strap to case.

This is an unprecedented collaboration, signaled by Nespresso’s iconic “N” engraved on the crown, and its iconic colour – a nod to the Master Origins Peru Organic capsule. The density of the two materials is expertly blended to ensure the durability of the product. The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin’s 42-mm case is crafted in recycled aluminium, of which 28% comes from Nespresso coffee capsules, anodised in vibrant green, then satin finished and polished. The crown and pusher undergo the same treatment. The bottom of the case and the container are both made from Eco-Titanium (recycled titanium). The titanium deployant buckle of the rubber strap, with its decorative recycled aluminium cap, and the sport buckle of the Velcro strap are also in the same anodised green colour.

The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin takes the recycled coffee grounds from Nespresso capsules and applies the magic of Hublot’s patented One Click interchangeable strap system to them. To create the rubber strap, Hublot has skilfully balanced the ratio of each ingredient to achieve the perfect colour and quality. For the fabric strap, Hublot has collaborated with SingTex, one of Nespresso’s partners who was already using recycled coffee grounds to produce a fabric called Scafé. This 100% recycled fabric (composed of 5% coffee grounds and 95% recycled polyester) is being used for the first time to make a watch strap. A subtle balance, to ensure the durability of the bracelet, which also sees the rubber strap fusing 4.1% coffee grounds, 8.2% recycled white rubber and the usual Hublot formula.

It took Hublot an entire year of R&D, working closely with Nespresso, to finally achieve the perfect harmony of colors between seven different materials that make up the watch, from its case to its straps (anodized aluminum, the varnish on the dial and hands, the Hublot logo decal on the glass, the rubber of the strap, and the fabric, lining and hook & loop tape of the Velcro strap) and to ensure that this uniformity of color would stand the test of time.

In another first, the Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin will come in the Hublot Greenbox case, a brand new case developed by this watchmaking manufacturer that will be used for all its watch collections in the future. Created entirely from oak, including its hinges, it is carved from mostly massive, traceable wood, whose sourcing and manufacture both promote short supply chains. It is designed to be a reusable item, with 98% of its removable interior made from eco-friendly and recycled components. It is made from recycled fabrics, plastic yarns and PET, as well as recycled paper and cardboard that are eco-labelled. For the collaboration with Nespresso, the Hublot Greenbox case is specially decorated with the two brands’ logos, affixed using coffee grounds.

“The Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin is a watch born out of a close collaboration between the product development teams of Nespresso and Hublot, two pioneering Swiss brands, both of whom were founded in the 1980s. This is a watch that delivers three world firsts: a symbol of the infinite possibilities for upcycling: a Big Bang made from the recycled aluminum of Nespresso coffee capsules; the first watch with a rubber strap containing 4.1% recycled coffee grounds from Nespresso capsules and 8.2% recycled rubber; and finally, the first watch with a Velcro strap made with SCafé, a fabric containing 5% recycled coffee grounds and 95% recycled polyester. It took the R&D teams a whole year to achieve the uniformity of colour of the watch’s seven different materials, find the right balance of ingredients and perform the quality and durability testing on all the product components.” Said Hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe.

Related Group Breaks Ground on Nearly Sold-Out Oceanfront Casamar Residences In Pompano Beach

Related Group has broken ground on Pompano Beach’s newest beachside condominium, Casamar Residences, as the building nears sell-out. Set upon nearly 300 feet of pristine white sand, the boutique luxury property will house only 119 oceanfront condos with world-class designs by the award-winning Arquitectonica and The Rockwell Group. With completion expected in 2025, only select units remain.

Casamar Residences marks the second of Related’s developments in Pompano Beach, following the success of sister property, Solemar. Launched in March 2020 and now fully sold-out, the firm’s maiden Pompano Beach project helped establish the seaside village as one of South Florida’s most promising markets, setting up Casamar to be a resounding success in the process.

“We launched sales on Solemar days before the COVID pandemic shut the world down. While many developers took a step back, we doubled down knowing that we had something special on our hands,” said Nick Perez, President of the Related Group’s condominium division. “Thanks to that decision, Pompano Beach is now discussed in the same light as Fort Lauderdale and West Palm - it’s been really incredible. We look forward to continuing to support Pompano’s thoughtful progress through Casamar and subsequent projects.”

Set upon 283 feet of oceanfront, Casamar is Pompano Beach’s newest luxury condominium offering a boutique, on-the-water living experience unlike any other. The 21-story Casamar draws inspiration from the Atlantic Ocean’s turquoise waters to immerse residents in a tranquil, resort-like lifestyle.

The focus on life on the sand and sea extends to the wellness-forward amenity package, which features luxuries such as sunrise and sunset pools, a Promenade Lounge where residents and guests can relax and entertain, a state-of-the-art fitness center with his and her saunas, as well as several open-air lounges. Sports fans can enjoy the virtual reality golf simulator room, regulation-size pickleball court, as well as access to a variety of aquatic activities. Residents and guests will also enjoy personalized, 24/7 concierge services.

Floor plans start at $1.8 million, ranging from 1,000 to 3,900 square feet. Each unit comes equipped with private elevators opening directly into the residence and open layouts with stunning, floor-to-ceiling windows allowing for maximum natural light and endless views of Downtown Pompano, the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterways. Each turn-key residence also includes spacious master bathrooms and Chef’s kitchens designed with Italian cabinetry and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances.

“Pompano Beach sits right in between South Florida’s major markets of Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach. It’s a hidden gem that gives residents access to everything this region has to offer, but at more attainable prices,” said Wendy Marks Pine, Sales Director for the Related Group. “What many thought was a short-term trend has become a full-blown movement. Make no mistake - Pompano Beach is here to stay.”
