The Perigon Miami Beach

By: Gustafson Porter + Bowman

The Perigon at 5333 Collins Avenue, Miami, is a large residential complex consisting of beachfront dwellings designed by architects OMA and landscaped by Gustafson Porter + Bowman.

The site’s gardens offer stunning views of the ocean and reflect the rich diversity of Florida’s tropical flora in a sequence of ‘garden rooms’ that connect with the Perigon’s elegant interiors. Here you will find four different character areas: the dune terraces that face east towards the Atlantic Ocean; the water garden that is placed alongside the buildings south elevation; the shade garden that connects the entrance to the club house; and the entrance hillside that looks across Collins Avenue to the lagoon. The combination of curved and rectilinear planters reflect the geometry of the building, while the presence of a soothing, linear water feature filled with aquatic plants adds to the tranquillity of the place. Finally, on Collins Avenue, Palms interlaced with silver buttonwood trees provide shade on the street and announce the entrance to the building.
