On November 30th Miami’s design elite descend on the YoungArts Jewel Box for From Memphis to Miami – an evocative, 180-minute flash exhibition unveiling the work and message of Italian design legend Massimo Iosa Ghini.
For one night only, Brickell Flatiron joins forces with the National YoungArts Foundation and leading Italian design brands; Barausse, Casalgrande Padana, Milldue, Margraf, Oikos, Platform, Snaidero, and Zucchetti.Kos, to showcase Iosa Ghini’s prolific work and 30 years of creative activity.
The Design Matters Conference presented by the Association of Architecture Organizations is the world’s only dedicated annual meeting that seeks to bring top designers, journalists and civic leaders into exploratory dialogue with those not-for-profit professionals and volunteers charged with creating cultural programs (exhibitions, tours, lectures and symposia, festivals and films, youth outreach) to spur broader public interest in architecture and design.
A soaring new skyscraper dubbed the "Brickell Flatiron" is set to rise 213 meters above the skyline in Brickell, Miami. Designed by Luis Revuelta, the tower features an organic floorplate profile with wide elliptical terraces, maximizing sweeping views of Biscayne Bay and downtown Miami.
These curvilinear, flowing lines are complemented by the interiors, designed by acclaimed Italian architect and designer Massimo Iosa Ghini of Iosa Ghini Associati. The Italian craftsmanship and renaissance-revival air of Iosa Ghini's design together with the clean functionality of Revuelta's architecture, presenting two harmonious elements of design in Miami; old school glamor, and contemporary luxury.
Inspire by Modernist aesthetics, Elysee’s is a luxury condominium where the floor plan expands as it grows higher, “creating a multi-tiered exterior structure.” In this sense, the tower is meant to become three vertical neighborhoods.
Lina Bo Bardi: Together, will be on display at the Miami Center for Architecture and Design from May 13 - July 29th. The exhibition celebrates and explores the vision of Brazilian modernist Lina Bo Bardi. Curated by Noemi Blager, Together reveals Bo Bardi's legacy in social design both through her own works, and with new works by artists who share her philosophy.
