Miami architecture
As Miami prepares to host the World Architecture Festival this November, the city’s design identity is undergoing a powerful shift from spectacle to substance. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, South Beach, designed by Kobi Karp and Alessandro Munge, embody this evolution with 30 residences that balance restraint, modernity, and deep respect for Miami’s architectural legacy.
Max Strang, FAIA, of STRANG Design discusses the influence of Gene Leedy’s architectural legacy, environmental modernism, and sustainable design practices in the context of today’s evolving urban and environmental challenges. With STRANG’s growing recognition and commitment to preserving the Sarasota School’s principles, Max offers a thoughtful perspective on architecture’s role in shaping the future.
