Comparing the Aesthetics of Art Deco Revival vs. Contemporary Glass: Shore Club Private Collections vs. The Perigon
In Miami Beach, aesthetics are never simply about taste. They are about posture: how a building meets the sky, how it frames the ocean, and how it signals lineage or modernity before you ever step inside. This comparison looks at two distinct design temperaments now shaping the upper tier of Miami-beach new-construction. On one side, an Art Deco revival sensibility, calibrated for Miami Beach’s historic glamour and the ritual of arrival. On the other, a contemporary glass approach that leans into weightlessness, horizon lines, and the quiet theater of transparency. Both can be impeccably luxurious. The difference is what kind of luxury you want to live in: the curated romance of a stylized past, or the disciplined clarity of a modern envelope.
