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.

Mediterranean vs. Modern in South Florida: Which Style Protects Resale Best Right Now

In South Florida, architectural style is not just taste; it is a pricing signal, a maintenance profile, and a proxy for how today’s luxury buyers actually live. New national style data shows Mediterranean homes command the highest median listing prices, yet recent appreciation has been flat, while modern and contemporary product has posted stronger multi-year gains. For Miami Beach and adjacent coastal submarkets, the most resale-resilient choice tends to be the one that aligns with indoor-outdoor living, feels authentic to place, and minimizes renovation friction in a low-growth market.
