Nigel Dancey, Head of Studio at Foster + Partners, emphasized the design's integration with its environment. "The tower's tapered form unifies its various functions, enhances structural efficiency, and creates an elegant marker on the Miami skyline," he said. "An environmentally responsive facade draws on Florida's vernacular architecture, with a louvered shading system to create a comfortable internal environment, while maximizing views out from this amazing location."
This new development adds to Miami's growing list of notable skyscrapers.
Recent designs by OMA, KPF, and Kengo Kuma and Associates also reflect a trend toward high-impact architectural projects in the city.
