The Perigon Miami Beach 5333 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach, FL 33140

Led by OMA New York Partner Jason Long, the architecture was designed as a series of “towers,” rotated to orient and enhance views from all residences toward the Atlantic Ocean, while also optimizing views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami skyline overlooking Miami Beach. The towers are merged and lifted into a singular form that responds to the panoramic views and frees the ground-plane below, creating the appearance that the building is only gently touching the ground. The resulting reduced footprint maximizes space for the gardens below and the designfortheinterlockingtowers will obtain LEED Gold certification when completed. A subtle contrast in shape between the towers—organic meeting orthogonal—highlights their juxtaposition.
