Arquitectonica has been selected as the master planners and designers of a new $1 billion mixed-use healthcare development in Miami, the firm announced via a press release today.

Site preparations will begin this year on the seven-acre Highland Park Miami development in the city’s Medical District. The plan for clients The Allen Morris Company and Black Salmon will increase the district’s total area by approximately ten percent, transforming it into the second largest such development in the country.

Local firm Naturalficial will also deliver a landscaped corridor at a previously underutilized area abutting the site, which is located within 400 feet of the nearest Metrorail station.

The Miami-based architecture, interior design, and planning firm Oppenheim Architecture shared images of their latest luxury mixed-use project, the Jewel. In February 2020, we connected with firm founder Chad Oppenheim for a Studio Snapshot interview. During the interview, we discussed the firm's work and design ethos. "The practice is much more about creating a platform for expression," he shared.

"We started by doing projects in up and coming areas and using architecture as we way to extract the best return on investment for our clients," shared Oppenheim. "Further down, we wanted to see how architecture can be as elemental as possible. Little by little, we were brought onto projects on spectacular sites, and we wanted to make the most out of them – bringing feeling and emotion as part of our ethos."
