Designed by Sn\u00f8hetta and developed by Miami Design District Associates, the Craig Robins-led entity behind the transformation of the Miami Design District, in partnership with Raycliff Capital, the project will encompass approximately 120,500 square feet. Construction is expected to begin in August 2026, with completion anticipated in 2028.<\/p>\n<p>The development, located at 95 NE 40th Street, will occupy a roughly 17,000-square-foot site adjacent to Museum Garage. Approximately 22,500 square feet of retail space will span the ground and second floors, while more than 92,000 square feet of office space will occupy levels three through eight. The flexible office floor plates are intended to accommodate a range of layouts for creative, luxury, and cultural tenants.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40701\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/18b346d36aab-image-crop.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1406\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Sn\u00f8hetta<\/p>\n<p>The architecture is organized as a composition of layered, veiled volumes enclosed by a double-skin fa\u00e7ade system. A glazed curtain wall is set behind a sculptural stainless steel mesh screen that wraps the building in an undulating outer envelope, creating depth between the two layers. The offset mesh filters solar heat gain while allowing daylight into the office floors, and its varying transparency changes with the angle of the sun. Recessed terraces integrated within the fa\u00e7ade introduce landscaped outdoor spaces that further articulate the building\u2019s massing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40703\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/c0386a9cb8bf-Sn-hetta-Designed-Landmark-Office-and-Retail-Building-Revealed-in-Miami-Design-D.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"2500\" height=\"2000\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Sn\u00f8hetta<\/p>\n<p>The ground and second floors are designed with transparent retail frontages intended to extend the pedestrian activity of the Miami Design District, while the landscaped office terraces above soften the building\u2019s massing and introduce outdoor gathering spaces within the workplace environment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40704\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/d83039e5b754-Sn-hetta-Designed-Landmark-Office-and-Retail-Building-Revealed-in-Miami-Design-D.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1667\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: Sn\u00f8hetta<\/p>\n<p>Sweetbird North expands Sn\u00f8hetta\u2019s portfolio of commercial, cultural, and residential projects, which includes 50 West 66th Street on Manhattan\u2019s Upper West Side, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art expansion, the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet in Oslo, and the Bibliotheca Alexandrina in Alexandria, Egypt.
