Oceanfront Minimalism, Precisely Drawn
The Perigon Miami Beach is conceived as a study in restraint on one of the most coveted coastlines in the country. Rising 17 stories on an unusually wide, two-acre site along Collins Avenue, the building keeps the focus on water, sky, and light rather than ornament. Only 73 residences are planned, each oriented to drink in panoramic exposures over the Atlantic Ocean to the east and Biscayne Bay and the downtown Miami skyline to the west. The effect is intimacy at scale: a limited collection with the spatial generosity and privacy of a boutique hotel, interpreted for long-stay living.
This is Oceanfront living interpreted through precision. Rather than the typical podium massing, the tower is lifted roughly 45 feet above grade on tapered columns so the landscape flows beneath it. The architectural move unlocks garden-level transparency to the shore and opens breezeways that capture salt air and diffuse daylight across the grounds. Deep wraparound terraces, generally 10 to 12 feet, are integral to the composition and extend living rooms outdoors. From morning sunrises to cloudless midday horizons and pastel evening skies, daily life is framed by an ever-changing seascape.
As a Pre-construction opportunity, the project delivers the advantages of next-generation building systems and flood-resilient elevations while preserving the refined calm of Mid-Beach. The palette throughout is pared back and tactile. Glass, travertine, and light woods are handled with the exactness of yacht joinery. Detailing is quiet but consequential, channeling minimalism not as sparseness but as the disciplined editing that lets essential qualities - proportion, light, views - carry the experience.
For buyers who value understatement, the promise is a home that recedes behind the spectacle of the setting. The Perigon Miami Beach does not chase attention; it rewards attention. Materials are authentic, lines are clean, and service is delivered with the hush of a best-in-class hotel. The result is a sanctuary that reads as composed and modern today and assuredly timeless tomorrow.
The Perigon Miami Beach occupies a rare stretch where Miami-beach serenity meets cosmopolitan access. Minutes to cultural touchpoints and premier dining, yet set apart on the sand, it presents a lifestyle that is both effortless and discreet, exactly what many long-time Miami residents and new arrivals are seeking.
Architecture by OMA: A Floating Form Between Two Waters
The Perigon is the first ground-up Miami Beach residential commission for the Office for Metropolitan Architecture. Under partner Jason Long, OMA reframed the parcel's remarkable condition - Atlantic beachfront to the east, Indian Creek to the west - as a dual-waterfront experience. The massing was conceived as a procession of slender volumes subtly rotated to angle views toward water and away from neighbors, then fused into a single, faceted structure. The resulting diamond-like plan yields a sculptural silhouette that appears to hover above the shore while opening sightlines through the property.
Most consequential is the decision to raise the building on slender structural supports, eliminating a conventional base and freeing the ground plane for gardens instead of garages. By seating the lowest residential level high above the floodplain, the architecture future-proofs for coastal resiliency while gifting virtually every home with unobstructed horizons. At grade, meandering paths thread through tropical plantings and water features, offering framed glimpses of the ocean under the hovering tower and restoring a sense of porosity between Collins Avenue and the beach.
Balconies here are not appendages; they are living rooms in their own right. With generous depths, continuous glazing, and corner conditions engineered for wraparound vistas, terraces become the place for morning espresso, afternoon calls, or evening aperitifs as the skyline glows across Biscayne Bay. Inside, floor-to-ceiling glass and approximately 10-foot ceilings amplify the sense of volume. The faceted geometry also means a high percentage of corner rooms, enhancing outlooks and cross-ventilation while increasing privacy from adjacent buildings.
Landscape architecture by Gustafson Porter + Bowman braids the building's geometry into the terrain. Paths arc and interlace, enclosing quiet nooks for reading or conversation and expanding into wider lawns around a 25-meter pool deck. The choreography of movement - always with a glimpse to the ocean ahead or the waters of Indian Creek behind - reinforces the idea that arrival and everyday circulation should be as pleasurable as being still.
Interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners: European Ease, Miami Light
Interior architect Tara Bernerd & Partners translates the exterior's clarity into spaces that feel tailored rather than styled. Her vocabulary is European in spirit, drawn from Riviera hotels and contemporary yacht design: honed white travertine laid in a subtle diamond pattern under a double-height lobby; fluted natural stone and burnished metal details; light oak that reads warm by day and quietly luminous after sunset. The aim is cultural familiarity without nostalgia, rooms layered with tactile finishes that feel both cosmopolitan and at home on the beach.
Residences privilege flow and proportion over ostentation. Kitchens are fitted with custom Italian cabinetry and integrated appliances, arrayed as elegant furniture within open great rooms that touch glass on two sides. Primary suites are conceived as complete retreats with dressing rooms, spa baths, and terraces deep enough for loungers and dining. The soft, neutral palette - sands, creams, pale blues - mirrors the beach and sky, providing a composed backdrop for art collections and personal pieces gathered over time.
Detailing acknowledges how design-savvy residents actually live. Service zones are planned for discretion, with back-of-house storage, generous laundry rooms, and secondary entries where layouts allow. Bronze hardware is robust and cool to the touch. Lighting is layered and dimmable, with concealed tracks and cove moments that wash walls rather than hot-spotting art. The result is a domestic calm suitable for long stays as well as extended lock-and-leave periods, supported by staff who know the rhythm of the building and its owners.
For those seeking the exhilaration of the highest vantage points, the Penthouse collection is anticipated to elevate scale and privacy further, pairing expansive indoor volumes with rooftop terraces set for dining, entertaining, and star-gazing above the shoreline. As elsewhere in the building, the design intent is not showmanship; it is composure, residences meant to be inhabited, not exhibited.
Private Amenities Curated for Everyday Resort Living
The amenity program extends more than 20,000 square feet and is reserved exclusively for owners and their guests. At its heart is a residents-only dining experience helmed by acclaimed chef Shaun Hergatt, complemented by a discreet speakeasy bar for nightcaps or intimate gatherings. Mornings begin in a glass-walled conservatory serving as a breakfast lounge where an on-request barista calibrates cappuccinos just so, framed by garden greenery and the shimmer of the Atlantic beyond.
Outdoors, a beachfront, 25-meter lap pool anchors a landscaped sun deck with cabanas and attended service. A private beach club unfolds over approximately 200 linear feet of sand with umbrellas, loungers, and food and beverage to the shoreline. Dedicated sunrise lounges and garden terraces create flexible settings for contemplation or hosting, whether a children's birthday or an evening tasting under the palms.
Wellness is addressed comprehensively. The spa offers sauna and treatment rooms for personalized therapies, a private salon for hair and beauty services, and relaxation areas that mediate between garden and sea. The fitness center, daylit and fronting the water, pairs next-generation equipment with spaces for yoga and movement. For families, a children's playroom provides a design-led environment that engages younger imaginations without visual clutter. Cultural life finds expression in a screening room equipped for cinema-style evenings and presentations. A private wine room keeps prized bottles in climate-controlled storage and hosts intimate tastings.
Hospitality-caliber services complete the offering. A lifestyle concierge and residential butlers orchestrate in-residence dining, housekeeping on request, personal shopping, and special events. Twenty-four-hour security and valet come standard. A house car answers for short trips, while beach and pool attendants anticipate needs on the sand. Eight beautifully furnished guest suites, uncommon in condominium living, allow owners to extend true hospitality to friends and family without leaving the property.
Location & Lifestyle: A Private Oceanfront Oasis
Set on one of Miami Beach's broadest, calmest strands, the property reconciles seclusion with connection. Direct access to the Miami Beach Boardwalk makes sunrise jogs and twilight strolls effortless, while Collins Avenue places dining, galleries, and cultural venues within minutes. Yet the inward-looking plan and elevated base protect tranquility, so that the prevailing soundtrack is surf and rustling palms rather than traffic.
The scale of the parcel - roughly two acres spanning east-to-west - means The Perigon Miami Beach reads as a campus rather than a parcel. Meandering circulation mirrors the tower's geometry, linking gardens with amenity zones so that routines play out as a sequence of green rooms and framed horizons. For owners who split time among several homes, this choreography matters: returning from travel feels like re-entering a private resort calibrated to a familiar pace.
This is New-construction with a studied point of view, and it shows in the details. Flood-conscious siting, high-performance glazing, and advanced building systems align with Miami Beach's resilience imperatives. Service programming rivals top boutique hotels but remains residents-only. Above all, the composition holds to its minimalist brief: use less mass and fewer moves to deliver more light, more view, more calm.
Completion is currently anticipated around 2027, subject to customary construction timelines. Given the combination of architecture by OMA, interiors by Tara Bernerd & Partners, landscape by Gustafson Porter + Bowman, and a rare dual-waterfront setting between the Atlantic and Indian Creek, the address is already regarded as one of the city's most closely watched offerings in this cycle.

FAQs
What distinguishes The Perigon Miami Beach from other coastal developments? The project occupies a rare two-acre site that touches both the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Creek, allowing water views in two directions. Architecture by OMA elevates the building approximately 45 feet to create a garden-level landscape and preserve sightlines, while the residence count remains low at just 73 homes.
How does the elevated design improve daily living? Lifting the tower on slender columns increases privacy and light for residences, opens shaded breezeways at ground level, and enhances coastal resiliency by placing primary living levels above the floodplain. It also allows gardens, rather than a solid podium, to frame the arrival sequence.
What is the character of the interiors? Tara Bernerd & Partners shapes spaces with a European sensibility: honed travertine, fluted stone, custom Italian millwork, and light oak. The palette is soft and neutral to keep attention on water and sky. Floor-to-ceiling glass and generous terraces extend great rooms outdoors for true indoor-outdoor living.
Which amenities will residents use most? The amenity suite includes a residents-only restaurant with a speakeasy bar, a 25-meter lap pool with cabanas, a private beach club on roughly 200 feet of shoreline, a spa and fitness center facing the ocean, a screening room, a wine room, and eight reservable guest suites. Services include a lifestyle concierge, residential butlers, valet, and a house car.
When is completion anticipated and what type of buyer is a fit? The development is expected to deliver around 2027. The best fit is a design-forward buyer who values discretion, service, and immediate access to the sand.
