The Perigon Miami Beach: OMA’s Oceanfront Condominium Vision on Collins Avenue
On Miami Beach’s storied Collins Avenue, The Perigon is positioning itself as a new kind of oceanfront address: architecture-forward, privacy-led, and intentionally resident-centric. Planned for 5333 Collins Avenue in the Mid-Beach corridor often called Millionaires’ Row, the 17-story, 73-residence tower brings together Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) with interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners and landscape architecture by Gustafson Porter + Bowman. With dual-water frontage between the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Creek, and an amenity program that emphasizes private hospitality, The Perigon reflects where today’s ultra-prime buyer is headed: fewer residences, more discretion, and design that reads as a long-term asset, not a trend.
St. Regis Sunny Isles vs Avenia Aventura: Two Distinct Service Models in South Florida Branded Living
In South Florida’s branded-residence surge, the most consequential differentiator is not the logo on the keycard. It is the operating philosophy behind daily life. This editorial compares two highly different expressions: St. Regis® Residences Sunny Isles, a private, resort-scale oceanfront proposition anchored by hospitality culture and signature butler service, and Avenia Aventura, a low-density FENDI Casa-branded boutique building oriented around design, privacy, and marina access. For buyers weighing second-home ease, long-term livability, and the practical realities of staffing and amenity scale, the contrast is instructive.

This guide outlines what is driving demand, which project attributes matter most, and how to underwrite value in a market where boutique inventory can command meaningful premiums.
Brickell’s Next Luxury Benchmark: Wellness-Forward Branded Residences, From Mercedes-Benz Places to ORA by Casa Tua
In Brickell, wellness has moved from a nice-to-have amenity floor to a defining part of the ownership proposition. Two high-profile, brand-driven projects illustrate the shift: Mercedes-Benz Places Miami, with its design-and-mobility lens, and ORA by Casa Tua, with a hospitality-first approach anchored by dining, service, and verdant respite. For buyers weighing lifestyle, privacy, and long-term desirability, the most revealing differences are not just what each building offers, but how each one intends residents to live day to day.
Palm Beach vs Miami: Two Luxury Lifestyles, Two Very Different Real-Estate Plays
Palm Beach and Miami can both deliver an exceptional South Florida life, but they operate on different social systems. One is organized around private clubs, seasonal traditions, and discreet codes of belonging; the other is built on global dining, high-energy nightlife, and a denser, more public urban rhythm. For buyers weighing a primary residence, a winter base, or a legacy second home, the lifestyle differences often matter as much as the floor plan.
From Your Dog’s Perspective: Condo Life vs. A Yard in South Florida Luxury Real Estate
