THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: CABANA FEVER

Posted 12.10.2018

Planning is well underway for the Edgewater condos at Missoni Baia, a 57-story Miami luxury tower from famed fashion house Missoni and developer OKO Group. Among the building’s most attractive amenities will be its luxe poolside cabanas, created under the watchful eye of Angela Missoni, who serves as the development’s creative director. In addition to the cabanas, the building will include an Olympic-sized pool and sundeck, where residents can retreat from the stresses of the world. “It’s more of a leisurely visit at the pool, in the pool, by the pool,” says Cervera Real Estate’s Alicia Cervera, listing agent for the building. “Cabanas provide that perfect combination of indoor-outdoor relaxation space.”

Missoni Baia was featured by Lux Expose in a recent roundup of high-end children’s playrooms. While many developments are hiring big names to design their kid-focused amenities, Missoni Baia is fortunate enough to have the one and only Angela Missoni as inspiration for its one-of-a-kind playroom. With a color palette and aesthetic inspired by the Missoni matron’s own home, the playroom at the Baia features custom butterfly-pattern wallpaper, playhouses dressed in Missoni fabric, and details like garden gnome stools that give the space a sense of wonder. Best of all, the playroom has the same spectacular waterfront view as the rest of the building’s Biscayne Bay condos.
