It’s Art Deco Weekend in Miami

We’re getting Don Johnson vibes from this image of Miami’s iconic Ocean Drive. It’s a landmark that’s appeared in many TV shows and movies over the years while also being home to celebrities like Gianni Versace. This weekend the city is celebrating the neighborhood’s distinct architecture. Art Deco Weekend is a long-running, free community festival that shines a light on the unique architecture here on Ocean Drive and throughout the Miami Beach Architectural District, better known as the Miami Art Deco District. Art Deco style, which reached its peak in the 1920s in the United States, is known for streamlined designs and symmetrical geometric figures, a look that pairs nicely with Miami’s ocean views.
