Salt and Pepper House / Kube Architecture

October 11, 2018 Pilar Caballero 0

The Owners, a couple in their mid-70’s, purchased this home to start their lives together. They got engaged after they bought the house, and got married in the house while it was under construction.

The environment that SHoP Architects has conceived at the gateway to this year’s Design Miami exhibition seeks to make visible two qualities—one evident, one latent—in the understanding of the city today. It exists at the intersection of Miami’s celebrated spirit of play, represented by a relocated landscape that mimics the beach, but also the city’s emergent function —demonstrated by the art and design fairs themselves— as a center for creative visioning and technological discovery.
