The sunsets of Rome and Miami influenced the orange hues found throughout Italian jewellery brand Bulgari<\/a>‘s new store in the Miami Design District<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Created by Rome-based architect Massimo Adario<\/a> and Bulgari<\/a>‘s in-house design team, the two-storey building occupies a prominent corner in the shopping area.<\/p>\n

\"BoutiqueOrange accents are found across the exterior and interior of the re-opened Bulgari boutique<\/p>\n

The reopened boutique encompasses 3,229 square feet (300 square metres) and presents jewellery, watches, perfume and handbags on the ground floor floor, along with a salon for entertaining clients upstairs.<\/p>\n

“Miami is a global hub for art, design and culture, making it the perfect setting to showcase Bulgari’s Roman heritage, craftsmanship and innovation,” said Herv\u00e9 Perrot, the brand’s North America president.<\/p>\n

\"BoutiquePalm fronds across the floors and woven textured walls nod to the store’s location in Miami, while travertine furniture ties the space back to Rome<\/p>\n

The building’s facade comprises a double skin, with offset rectangular blocks adding texture and shadow behind large glass panels.<\/p>\n

A gradient of deep orange to pale blue across the panels is intended to evoke the vivid sunsets that both Rome and Miami frequently experience.<\/p>\n

\"AA focal point is created by a cylinder of orange acrylic batons, which is expressed on both levels<\/p>\n

“Locally rooted materials highlight the boutique’s unique identity, while at night the facade transforms into a captivating, fully illuminated display,” said the brand.<\/p>\n

Inside, more bright orange accents appear in wall niches for highlighting individual products, as well as a focal ceiling installation formed from translucent acrylic batons arranged in a circle.<\/p>\n

\"SeatingThe upper floor offers a salon space for clients<\/p>\n

This wavy-edged cylinder is also expressed on the upper level, accessed via a deep-teal staircase, where it creates a ring-shaped balustrade in the centre of the room.<\/p>\n

Floors are subtly patterned with palm fronds and walls are wrapped in woven textured materials that nod to Miami’s tropical landscape.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, travertine furniture and fluted columns connect back to the brand’s Roman origins, along with brass details<\/p>\n

“Classic elements reimagined with contemporary detail define a distinctive space that balances heritage and modernity,” the brand said.<\/p>\n

\"ExteriorThe store’s double-skin facade features a gradient intended to evoke a sunset<\/p>\n

Bulgari is the latest brand to revamp its presence in Miami Design District, which is home to many luxury retailers.<\/p>\n

Fellow jewellery brand Cartier recently expanded its store<\/a> with a bulbous facade by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, while smaller fashion labels Cult Gaia<\/a> and PatBo<\/a> have opened spaces within the past couple of years.<\/p>\n

\"BulgariThe facade’s offset panels allow it to come alive when illuminated at night<\/p>\n

The Bulgari boutique’s re-opening coincides with Miami art week, which takes place 1-7 December and encompasses fairs, exhibitions and installations across the city \u2013 see Dezeen’s guide to what’s on<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This year, highlights include The Future Perfect’s debut exhibition at its new gallery in Villa Paula<\/a> and a momumental rotating library<\/a> on the beach by Es Devlin.<\/p>\n
