Miami's South Beach, an international playground and urban neighbourhood in one, is known throughout the world for its dazzling style. Casual, colourful and sensuous, it draws artists, writers and world travellers. This compact volume is a panorama of South Beach architecture and interior and garden design. There are houses, penthouses, clubs, shops, museums, bay-front gardens and courtyard landscapes. The senses of style range from resort glamour to the urban edge, and from the sublimely modern to the ridiculously hedonistic. Laura Cerwinske describes the architectural history of the island, the creation of the "tropical deco" style and the cultural evolution of South Beach, while South Beach architect Bernard Zyscovich explores "sustainable hedonism", the local formula for urban vitality.
