The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach gets into the art game

Even the real estate market has gotten into the art scene, albeit with a more intimate approach. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach features the world’s first residential art studio designed exclusively by the Piero Lissoni in collaboration with Miami-based artist Tatiana Blanco. The studio was created to showcase, and bring to the forefront that art can be as therapeutic (and accessible) as a fitness center workout or a relaxing afternoon at the residence pool.

The creative concept came about quite organically as well. Blanco has always kept a blank canvas at her home as an outlet for houseguest to express themselves and was inspired to provide the same kind of platform to RCMB residents. This exclusive amenity gives owners an opportunity to unwind through sculpture, painting, ceramics, beadwork, as well as structured art classes. There is also a wall of light that imitates north faced natural light, which is optimum for art, 24/7 and a library filled with art books for inspiration.

The property also recently announced an ongoing partnership with the prestigious Cynthia-Reeves Art Gallery located in North Adams, Massachusetts. Residents and their guests will be able to enjoy the art in passing within the lobby, shared hallways and amenity spaces, as well as purchase the pieces through the concierge for display within their private homes, assuring that residents won’t have to venture past their own proverbial backyards to find artistic inspiration.
