Miami
has long been known for its miles of sandy beaches and for the melting
pot of Hispanic immigrants who reside in neighborhoods extending inland
from Miami Beach. But the third most popular American city after Los
Angeles and New York is also famous for its unique contemporary
architecture. Miami Houses is a beautifully produced and copiously
illustrated tour of residential design by renowned architects such as
Ramon Pacheco, Pablo Uribe, Barry Sugarman, Alain Schuhmann, and
Santiago Bernal. The dazzling re-designs of houses in the landmark Art
Deco District and the distinctive Latin-inspired interior design on view
here have succeeded in making innovation the hallmark of Miami style.
