1000 Museum by Zaha Hadid

Over the past 30 years, Pritzker prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid has become internationally renowned for her designs of sensuous, soaring buildings that push the limits of innovation and blur the lines between art and architecture.

1000 museum by Zaha Hadid architects, Miami’s most prestigious new residential tower, is her first residential skyscraper in the western hemisphere. Located on a coveted property overlooking Miami’s museum park, and boasting utterly breathtaking Biscayne Bay and Atlantic Ocean views, one thousand museum brings Hadid’s visionary architecture together with an unprecedented level of service and extraordinary amenities.

The duplex townhomes, half-floor residences, full-floor penthouses, and a single duplex penthouse will enjoy exceptional privacy within a truly secure state-of-the-art environment.

Our ultimative goal with the 1000 Museum building is to emphasize all the best features of the architecture, using both light and shadow. As Sylvia Plath said in “The Bell Jar,” “I thought the most beautiful thing in the world must be shadow.” There are thousands of details to be curated, of course, and an overall organic shape made more dramatic by highlighting the edges as they meet the massive structure. We give every floor a unique character in an almost subversive way, aiming lights from unexpected locations and using the latest technologies to complement the futuristic feel of the building. After sunset the building is transformed by crisp, vibrant lighting. The effect is striking, never garish. The building becomes a tall, stylish  and elegant woman dressed perfectly for a night out at the museum across the street. Somewhat like Zaha Hadid herself.
