Argent Design have been Shortlisted for Living Space – Americas Award in The International Design and Architecture Awards 2022.

1600 West 25th Street is a stunning 12,000 square foot waterfront property completed by Argent Design, illustrating the very best in modern luxury living, and offering vast open plan living, both in its exterior surroundings and within its beautiful interior.

The client’s brief was to create a larger new build open plan family home for entertaining. They wanted both a lively interior that was also soft, which was challenging for the designers. The waterfront was the priority and Argent Design had to make the most of the magnificent view and the indoor-outdoor living favoured in Miami amongst the warm climates.

For Argent Design, one of the key aspects of this project was the use of different colours and materials. Materiality and colour are so great to play with in Miami – with the bright light you can carry strong colour, texture, and pattern and with the scale of the space it plays well in the space and adds the zing and interest while still being soft, elegant and zen.

Great time was spent on the layout of the living space to ensure an easy flow and open plan but still having divisions, so the space doesn’t feel vast as this was a worry for the client having seen a lot of properties in Miami. Overall, the client was very happy and felt it struck the perfect balance and delivered on their requirements.

With such varying architecture in Miami, it can be very easy to go to bold and striking – for Argent Design, they prefer to build on materials and accents with colour fabrics, stones in alternative finishes such as hydro, honed or leathered for interest. They drew a lot from around the natural surroundings for the scheme, the greens of the lush planting, blues of the ocean and sky.
