90 NE 41st St. Miami, FL 33137
Have you ever seen a beautifully "aesthetic" garage?
Say hello to the Design District's Museum Garage, a work of art-- and an ideal spot for Instaworthy photos!
Yes, folks, this seven-floor parking garage in the heart of the Miami Design District is NOT just your average car parking area!
In 2015, Design District developer Craig Robins commissioned architect and curator Terence Riley to develop the concept for Museum Garage.
Bringing together these designers from around the world, Riley drew inspiration from the surrealist parlor game Exquisite Corpse.
The game involved a collection of images assembled by various artists with no regard or knowledge of what the other artists have drawn, producing one image whose components don't necessarily match but flow together as one playful composition.
Under Riley's direction, each participating architect worked on an area and depth to build out, getting free rein to create individual designs.
And the result? A unique modern, architectural version of the Exquisite Corpse-- Design District's Museum Garage.
Explore its unique walls and corners, and take beautiful photos and selfies for your socials-- it's close to impossible to get a "bad" snap in this garage!
2) Jungle Plaza
3801 NE 1st Ave, Miami, FL 33137
Gear up to explore the "Jungle" and get your socials ready for some serial posting!
This is Jungle Plaza, the "land" of IG-worthy photos!
Kidding aside, Jungle Plaza isn't an actual jungle, per se, but Design District's premier outdoor event space for large-scale productions and events.
The 33,000 square foot location features a monumental mural by the Brazilian artist Criola, titled "Interdimensional Portal," a scene that represents a group of female characters in bright, bold colors and vibrant geometry, performing rituals of healing and protection.
Undoubtedly one of the most artistic and colorful areas in the Design District!
Aside from the "Interdimensional Portal," visitors will see a Jungle-themed mural on the wall, a colorful focal point that pays homage to the South Floridian landscape.
So take your pick and get ready to pose!
3) Palm Court
140 NE 39th St, Miami, FL 33137

Designed by Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto and Aranda/Lasch, Palm Court boasts a 7,000 sq. feet palm-dotted plaza, home to public art installations by Konstantin Grcic, Matthew Richie, and Xavier Veilhan, all enhancing the open-air artsy experience!
Netscape, 2010, After Light, Le Corbusier, 2013, and the Fly's Eye Dome at the Palm Court Garage-- yes, they're all here!

Armed with Fujimoto's signature style-- a vibrant interplay between nature and architecture, the Building Façade is one of the cornerstones of the Design District's pedestrian-centric area, inspired by the flowing movement of waterfalls and Miami's tempestuous rain squalls.
