Emilio Estefan, one of the most important music producers of our time, invited FR-EE to design a new milestone in the heart of the Arts & Entertainment District of Miami. After analyzing the context of the site, FR-EE proposed a creative typology for the tower in order to develop an iconic project in the context of city’s new architectural language.

Acting as a metaphor for the city’s diversity, the building houses a variety of spaces including retail, services, amenities, offices and apartments. E. E. Miami includes everything necessary for daily life: shopping, restaurants, cafés, apartments, offices, parking lot and amenities.

The changes in color (from light green fading into magenta as it ascends) and the height variations of the parapets (which can be used for advertising at the parking levels) give a dramatic dynamism to the façade.
