HERZOG & DE MEURON, Nelson Garrido · 1111 Lincoln Road

Nelson Garrido

"Like a contemporary reinterpretation of a classical temple, the new building by Herzog & de Meuron, known as Eleven Eleven on Lincoln Road, property of "MBEACH1,LLLP", subverts the nature of car parks as we know them today and it is claimed as being the new provocation of the city of Miami.
This car parking, is not an ordinary parking and without effort we can imagine it being a luxury loft building on the city skyline.
Actually it is not just a building but a performative minimalist piece of DNA, architect Jacques Herzog says it is "all muscle without clothing"."
