Nothing like a Miami sunset at sea!! Never gets old and stops you on your tracks - and the last pic by @mrmiamism showing everything dialed in at 305: warm air, salt on your skin, skyline just close enough to feel it! #miamilife #305 #sunset

That stack of cubes rising over downtown isn’t random, it’s a deliberate break from the typical glass tower we’re used to seeing.

The Waldorf Astoria Miami is designed by Carlos Ott with Piero Lissoni, and it shows. The offset volumes shift as the tower rises, changing light, views, and the way it reads against the skyline.

At 100 stories, it’s set to become the tallest tower in Miami, with completion expected around 2028. (DM me if you have interest in purchasing)

Still under construction, but the intent is clear. This one was never meant to blend in

(Last 2 images are artist renderings)

Documenting the Miami skyline the way it’s meant to be seen

From the water, on a perfect boating day, chasing light and whatever the sky decides to do

This is Miami in motion, and yes… we’re always paying attention #miamilife #miamiboatlife

The beginning of something new in Brickell Key.

We stopped by the Mandarin Oriental Miami on its final day and captured it just before the implosion.

Sharing a couple of perspectives from @adventureroadtrippers and @designcleo that documented the moment from different angles.

And just like that, the site clears for what’s next. The renderings show a completely new vision taking shape here, one that will redefine this stretch of the skyline.

Miami keeps moving. #miamism #mandarinorientalmiami #miamilife

Miami was trying to figure out what it wanted to be… and this showed up.

The Bacardi Tower, 1963. Clean, sharp, unapologetically modern. One of Miami’s first true International Style office buildings, designed by Enrique Gutiérrez when Bacardi was busy reinventing itself after leaving Cuba.
Right in the heart of Edgewater, now one of the most electric places to live in Miami. New towers, new energy… and this still holds its ground without trying too hard.

But the part that stops you isn’t the glass box.
It’s the skin.

Over 28,000 hand-painted ceramic tiles by Brazilian artist Francisco Brennand, wrapping the tower in these surreal, tropical blue murals that shift with the light. Not art hung on a building, art built into it.
Mid-century modern, but make it Miami.

What’s even better… it didn’t get frozen in time. Today it’s home to YoungArts, still active, still evolving, still being used the way good architecture should be.
Not preserved like a relic.

Maintained, programmed, alive.

We see the intention. You feel the impact.

I’ve noticed a pattern looking back at my photos 🌴🌴Palm trees keep showing up!

Somehow I always stop to capture them.

Maybe it’s the light, maybe it’s the movement, how they frame their surroundings. Maybe it just feels like Miami

Am I the only one?
