The Petite Philosopher

Thoughtful Style.

Art Deco.

“If a building becomes architecture, then it is art.” – Arne Jacobsen

If there’s one thing that’s quintessential Miami, it’s definitely art deco architecture. The city is full of pastel colours on buildings with clean lines and geometrical shapes. Walking down Collins Avenue and Ocean Drive is like stepping back into the 1920s (minus the Ferraris and Lamborghinis). While I was all smiles when looking at these buildings, I couldn’t help but also feel sad that North American architecture today has lost its timeless style. These art deco hotels are not relics of the past, but a reminder of how beauty has the power to sustain.

What North American city do you think has the best or most interesting architecture? Be sure to comment below!
